I love a good sale story. This jacket caught my eye last spring. I imagined Olivia Pope wearing it to a meeting with a client or out to dinner with Jake (or the president…I can’t keep up with her these days!) It was this beautiful, buttery yellow…perfect in every way. However, the price tag wasn’t perfect for my pocket. So I waited. And waited.

I had saved the coat in my bookmarks (because of course I did) and mid-summer, it went on sale. And that had one left in my size. Down from $200 to $69? It was basically free.

If you ever find you in this predicament, visit Rack It Up. They’ll notify you when an item you’re loving goes on sale. I mean - does it get any better than that? (Answer: No. No it does not.)

Also can we talk about this bag? It’s one of my favorite finds ever and best of all, it only looks expensive. People literally DO NOT believe me when I tell them this bag was only $60. When I found it on Mimi’s The Look, I’ll admit I was wary. It’s so hard to tell the quality of a bag from photos, but let me tell you. This bag looks and feels like a million bucks (okay, realistically like $1,400 but you get my drift.) BETTER YET! Save 20% when using this special code: ITSJULIEN
