admin Firstly, think about what it is that you really need. It doesn’t hurt to have a quick look through your wardrobe and spot any gaps that need filling e.g a great pair of tailored trousers, a sensible knit for an unseasonably cold summer (here’s looking at you, 2023) or a comfortable but stylish shoe that can replace your old heels (and it’s always best to think what about what will work with your current pieces). Then, when scrolling through the site, add pieces to your basket that you really love (if you’re “umming and ahhing” about a purchase, it might be because you know deep down that you’re not going to get much wear out of it). And lastly, before you check out, it’s worth thinking about where you’ll wear them. Buying a statement evening dress might be exciting, but without any plans in the pipeline, it’s more than likely to gather dust, but if you find a piece you can wear to the office, gym, dinner, drinks, and all weekend, it’s likely you’re shopping as mindfully and sustainably as you can.
With all of that in mind, I’ve taken a deep dive into the Marks and Spencer’s sale and put together an edit of our favourite pieces that we know will go the distance and won’t feel dated by the time autumn (or even 2024) rolls around. Expect excellent trousers, versatile basics, and dresses you can style in a multitude of ways. So, if you don’t have time to trawl through the 4,300 items that have just been reduced–don’t worry, I’ve done the hard work for you. Shop my edit of the best M&S sale pieces below.
