It’s no surprise that I spend a lot of time shopping and keeping an eye out for the biggest trends of the moment. I’m constantly saving inspiration photos and adding pieces to my cart when I find something I love. However, I took a break from that right around this time last year, which means I’m more than excited for spring and summer shopping again. As you guys know, I always try to take a thoughtful approach to shopping, seeking out items that can be styled in multiple ways – and will remain relevant in the seasons to come. Saks Fifth Avenue always has all my favorite trends and investment pieces that I believe will still look chic way down the road. Whether I’m looking for classic staples, like a white top or a beautiful resort-style dress, I can always count on Saks to take it to the next level. With the Saks Designer Sale Break happening, I wanted to share my favorite splurge-worthy trends that you can score on sale right now (no promo code needed).

The Perfect Dress
Dresses are something I will splurge and save on. When it comes to something worth investing in, I stick to brands that can’t be replicated. I swear by Zimmermann for feminine, romantic pieces that have every inch perfected to the last detail. The gorgeous Zimmermann dress (also similar here and love this one) I’m wearing combines smocking, rumpled edges and florals for the ultimate frock. Neutral accessories are the perfect add-ons for this dress – like this handbag and these white heels.

Cropped Cardigan
I never hesitate to invest in a cardigan because I know I’ll wear it year-round from spring through winter. Rather than the typical open front, mid-length cardigan, I’m looking to embrace cropped styles with cool cutouts or a preppy collar. Those little of-the-moment details help make it feel fresh.
Luxe Sets
The beauty of a matching set is that the pieces can easily be mixed-and-matched with everything else in your closet. I love soft, neutral two-pieces because they’re easier to dress up or down. However, I wouldn’t think twice about splurging on a beautiful print, like this head-turning Zimmermann set.
White Blouse
Frilly white tops are the epitome of chic. From eyelet details to ruffled sleeves, a chic white top will truly last a lifetime while feeling on-trend and fashion forward during the warmer seasons. Be sure to take advantage of the Saks sale and add my picks below to your closet.
Elevated Basics
Give your wardrobe the most impactful upgrade with elevated basics that you can wear anytime, anywhere. It makes the perfect opportunity to show off a pair of cool trousers (or jeans), statement bag or layered jewelry.
