In the fifteen years since its launch, ME+EM has become one of my favourite British clothing brands, and I'm not alone. Celebrities such as Amanda Holden, Katie Holmes and Trinny Woodall are all fans. Several members of the Royal Family are in the club, too - Kate Middleton, Duchess Sophie and Queen Camilla have all got ME+EM in common.
I've been working in fashion for twelve years now, and still, the question I'm most often asked is where do I shop myself. For quality wardrobe staples, my answer is always ME+EM, and after just one purchase, you'll understand the appeal, too. The epitome of Quiet Luxury, the clothing may cost slightly more than you’d usually spend, but there’s a real focus on quality, and as the founder and CEO Clare Hornby calls it, ‘'wear-forever appeal."
It's a go-to for pieces like floral dresses for fancy occasions, statement blouses for work and trousers that are tailored to perfection. If you're looking to curate a year-round capsule wardrobe, then these sale items should definitely be on your radar. Although the brand does not participate in Black Friday, frankly, these discounts are better than those I've seen offered anywhere else - thank me later.
ME+EM sale: Up to 60% off
With up to 60% off in the ME+EM sale at the moment, now’s the time to invest. The sale is online only, plus you can shop by category and size to make life easier. Not that I needed an excuse to get stuck in!
ME+EM sale: dresses
This olive coloured midi dress has got flattering ruched details that really remind me of a Victoria Beckham design that's been on my wish list for months now. It will work well with black accessories, or try gold jewellery and heels.
Festive red is always a good idea for Christmas soirees, and this would float around nicely at a cocktail party. Again, the ruching is so forgiving - especially after a Christmas dinner or two!
This really reminds me of a pink ME+EM dress that both the Princess of Wales and her mother Carole Middleton have worn. The optional tie neck detail is very Kate Middleton, for sure.
I think this might just be the perfect Christmas party dress. The tweed fabric, the zip front, and are those pockets I spy? Team it with a pair of platform heels and the matching jacket to be the best dressed guest.
Personally, I prefer a long sleeve dress, and this one has sheer fabric on the sleeves and skirt so you feel covered but not too much so. It's available in UK sizes 4 to 16, but won't be around for long!
ME+EM does printed dresses really well, and if you've got a wintry wedding coming up, this striking dress is calling to you. It would work really well with knee-high boots and a tailored coat.
ME+EM sale: jumpsuits
This versatile all-in-one is bound to become a go-to for travelling or running around. Roll up the trousers and turn back the cuffs, add a pair of comfortable trainers and you're good to go!
I honestly think I prefer jumpsuits over dresses nowadays, they're so easy to wear. This clever design is a cami strap style with a chic little top to go over it. Clever, ME+EM.
Thought you loved that tweed mini dress a minute ago? Now you have to choose between the dress and the jumpsuit!
ME+EM sale: tops
Brown is one of the biggest autumn/winter fashion colour trends 2025, and this simple little bardot top is an easy way to embrace it. Style yours with a sequin embellished pencil skirt.
This little camisole will be so handy over the Christmas period. Wear it under blazers with jeans or matching tailored trousers, or team it with knitwear to mix up your textures.
Looking for date night outfits? This paisley print top would look very chic teamed with flared jeans and mid height heels.
ME+EM sale: jackets
I can't believe this pink boucle jacket is in the sale - it looks much more expensive than it is! Sizes are selling out as we speak, so don't wait too long to add it to your basket.
This might not be as useful as your cosy puffer jacket right now, but when spring has finally sprung, it will be your go-to layering piece. The trick to really good sale shopping is thinking about future you.
The name says it all - this 'very useful' blazer will be your go-to for office days. Team it with any of the matching pieces for a particularly sleek look.
ME+EM sale: knitwear
If you don't like to deviate from the favourite old jeans and a blazer formula, swap your white T-shirt for this top when you need a bit of evening glamour.
As much as I love my best cashmere jumpers, I always like to have a cotton option on hand. I haven't seen anything like this collared option anywhere else, and I love it.
Rugby tops are a big trend right now, and this combination is very eye-catching. Add the Philips fabric shaver to your Amazon basket to tackle any light pilling that might occur.
ME+EM sale: trousers & skirts
Fed up of always wearing black or grey? Festive red will be your best friend at this time of year! Wear these trousers with heels and your legs will look like they go on forever.
Red not your colour? These metallic wide-leg trousers are perfect for throwing some shapes on the dancefloor at the office Christmas party.
A real leather midi skirt is a hefty investment, but when it's 50% off you can rest assured you're getting a good deal. You'll be wearing this buttery soft beauty for years to come.
ME+EM sale: jeans
The distressed detailing on these jeans is subtle enough to still feel smart when teamed with a loafer. The relaxed fit makes them some of the most comfortable jeans you can buy.
Love white jeans outfits? These slouchy jeans are available in sizes 23 to 34, and are made from a non-stretch cotton denim. They're a great option if you're wondering how to style Birkenstock clogs.
I used to be a skinny jean queen, but I must say barrel leg jeans have well and truly won me over. These are the perfect shade of blue, and the silhouette isn't too exaggerated if you're a baggy jeans beginner.
ME+EM sale: shoes & boots
Ballerinas, but better. This strappy style will work all winter long worn with socks and jeans. Yes, really!
One of the biggest trainer trends 2025, retro high tops are well and truly back. If you're a trainers in winter kind of gal, these will keep your ankles a bit warmer than your adidas Sambas do.
This block heel is spot on for a Christmassy night out, and you won't even need to change them for the journey home! The neutral colour will go with everything, too.
Top shopping tips
My top tip when shopping sales is to think beyond the season you’re in, which is a bit easier when the British weather can't quite make up its mind. There really is a great range of options, from stylish dresses to hide a tummy for the summer, to lightweight knitwear which will help with your wardrobe transition throughout the seasons. Not only are the clothing options fantastic, but they have a range of shoes, such as slingbacks, that will be a no-brainer when you're figuring out how to style bootcut jeans.
But be warned, with prices slashed, much like with the Boden sale, our favourite finds are unlikely to be in stock for long, and the size options may be limited.
FAQs
Can you return ME+EM in store?
Sale items cannot be returned to store, they must be sent back via ME+EM's online returns process.
Does ME+EM have a Black Friday sale?
In a previous year, ME+EM sent an email to customers stating that they wouldn't be taking part in Black Friday sales, explaining: "We don't believe in fast fashion. We don't rush when it comes to making our clothes, and we don't want you to rush when it comes to shopping them.
"We believe in making considered investment pieces that make you feel confident, that we know you'll wear constantly and that will last for years to come.
"That's why, rather than discounting this Black Friday, we will be making a donation to Women for Women International."
