For me, every trip starts the same: scrolling through endless pages of clothes to figure out what I want to buy for my upcoming vacation. Sure, it’s an expensive habit — but life’s short, right? I say buy the outfit for that weekend getaway (and grab the matching shoes and accessories as well).
Luckily for me (but not so lucky for my wallet), there are countless clothing sales to shop this weekend as popular retailers and brands begin to clear out their summer offerings to make room for fall-ready styles. Of course, it’s unrealistic to shop them all, so I took the liberty of scrolling through the biggest ones and rounded up the 30 best deals from Amazon, Nordstrom, Madewell, Everlane, and REI. Below, expect savings of up to 70 percent off and prices starting at $18 on travel outfits, comfortable shoes, hiking apparel, and more.
Best Amazon Deals
Over at Amazon, you can refresh your closet with effortlessly stylish pieces from the retailer’s top brands. I have my eye on the Automet Linen Two-piece Tank Top Shorts Set, which is only $36 right now, and the on-sale Puma Carina Leather Sneakers that make excellent everyday and travel shoes.

Best Nordstrom Deals
There are thousands of new markdowns up to 60 percent off in the Nordstrom sale section, and the selection is out of this world. If you’re after that chic Parisian aesthetic, check out the 50-percent-off DKNY Print Pleated Voile Midi Skirt and the 35-percent-off Vionic Petaluma Slingback Flats. Put the finishing touches on the look with the $30 Open Edit Side Ruched Tank, and you’re good to go.

Best Madewell Deals
Those thinking ahead to fall will be excited by the newest Madewell sale offerings, which strike the perfect balance of breathability and coverage for end-of-summer-into-early-fall dressing. If I were you, I wouldn’t waste any time adding The Emmett Wide-leg Crop Jeans to my cart while they’re $50. You can dress them up with the on-sale Cutaway Sweater Vest and The Kaitlin Sandals (I have my eye on the dreamy apple butter burgundy color).

Best Everlane Deals
The end-of-summer deals in Everlane’s sale section are in a league of their own. Right now, you can save up to 70 percent on travel dresses, wide-leg pants, comfortable sandals, and more from the fan-favorite brand — and, I’m happy to report that almost everything is still basically fully in stock. My favorite find from the sale section is The Supima High-neck Riviera Dress, which is $35 instead of $118. Pair it with The Day Twist Sandals (on sale for $59 from $148) and you’re ready for a day of exploring.

Best REI Deals
Outdoor enthusiasts know that shopping an REI sale is the best way to score deals on brand-name activewear. For instance, you can get the Hoka Trail Code GTX Hiking Boots on sale for 50 percent off this weekend. Other can’t-miss deals include the Outdoor Voices Snacks 7/8 Leggings, which are $59 from $118 and the versatile, stylish, and 30-percent-off Fjallraven S/F Saddle to Table Dress.
