Limited-Time Sales on Stylish Spring Outfits and Accessories
Just in time for the official start of spring, my inbox has been filling up with “Friends & Family” sale notices this week! These are the best kinds of sales: x percent off everything, including new season items. Here are a few of your favorites & mine on sale now….
Sporty chic

My sizes: Jacket – Small, Sweater – Small, Pants – Petite Small
Athleta has 30% off everything, including these favorite Venice side-stripe pants. (See how I styled them 3 ways.) Several colors available in Regular, Petite, and Tall sizes. Our favorite travel-friendly Endless and Brooklyn pants are also included in the sale. Also worth checking out: the Everywhere Anorak rain jacket, and the Allure Shirt Jacket.
The jacket I’m wearing above is part of Ruti’s spring promotion ($55 off with code SS25). My favorite barrel jeans and twill pants are also included.
And hooray, these cute & comfy leopard print sneakers are currently 30% off! (Run true-to-size.) AND the lightweight cashmere sweater is now marked down at J.Crew! (Several colors available.)
Nicely nautical
Vince has 25% off with code FF25, including these spiffy boat shoes. (Nordstrom also has these marked down, with several color choices, including a pretty blue and classic navy!) As with most Vince shoes, these run 1/2 size large.
Versatile spring styles
This cotton cardigan (which I’ve been wearing on repeat) is currently marked down at Talbot’s, plus they have a buy-one-get-one-50%-off promotion running now! The cardigan is offered in Misses, Petite, Plus, and Plus Petite sizes, in several colors.
The Madewell Insiders Event is still on, so if you’ve been eyeing these jeans, or anything else on the site, they’re 25% off. I was in the store a couple of days ago, and was very tempted by this open stitch cardigan. I also picked up a couple more of the cotton bandanas.
And if you’ve been considering these Jeffrey Campbell flats, the color I’m wearing above (Mustard) is now on sale! (Run true-to-size.)
Maquillage
Jane Iredale has 20% off sitewide, including my favorite ColorLuxe Lipstick (wearing above in Poppy). I also love the PurePressed Mineral Foundation with SPF20 (compact is refillable!), the Smooth Affair Illuminating Face Primer, the PurePressed Powder Blush, and the Just Kissed Lip & Cheek stain. All of the products are clean and cruelty-free.

Thank you for recommending the Talbots cotton cardigan. I got it in two colors and have worn both already. So versatile for work, travel or casual wear.
Susan, I always appreciate being kept in the loop on sales, so thank you.
On another note, have you seen the new Eileen Fisher color Bluette? Having a hard time discerning whether it skews warmer or cooler. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Hi Linda, on my monitor it’s definitely cool, with a slightly purplish cast. I think it would probably work best for Summers. (The color looks a bit soft for Winters.)
Sadly, that’s what I thought as well. Thank you!
