Memorial Day weekend – a.k.a. the unofficial start of summer and everyone’s favorite excuse to spend three straight days outdoors – is finally here. Beach trips, backyard dinners, spontaneous barbecues, and, naturally, sale shopping included.
As a Style Editor, I’ve always viewed Memorial Day sales as a rapidly closing window to refresh your home before summer fully arrives – and before everyone else beats you to the good stuff. This is when the season’s biggest design trends hit their best prices, and this year’s markdowns are particularly good. Nordstrom’s Half-Yearly Sale alone includes up to 50% off everything from Parachute bedding and Le Creuset cookware to luxury throw pillows from Burberry.
