In a further blurring of holiday weekends that crossfades one never-ending fire sale into another, Labor Day sales now start as early as mid-August, which feels vaguely unsettling. But as much as I complain about the relentlessness of the modern promotional schedule, I fall in line when the first good sale hits my inbox.
Some early sales that are worth browsing:
+ Madewell
Sale styles are an extra 40% off online with code LONGWEEKEND. The excellent The Transport Shoulder Crossbody Bag (reviewed here) that I am carrying here is $87.90 after discounts. More picks:



+ Club Monaco
Take 40% off all sale styles; no code needed, discount taken in cart. Standard shipping is free on orders over $150. Note that sales are final with additional discount.
+ The Gap

+ J.Crew
