My favorite sale of the season, the NET-A-PORTER End of Season Sale started on Monday! Today I'm sharing what's on my wish list. My main strategy for the sale is to try and wait for final reductions which happen a month or so after the sale starts. The danger here is that something you want may sell out. So if an item you REALLY love is on sale and looks like it may sell out, GRAB IT. It's a bit like playing chicken, see how long you can hold out before pulling the trigger. Make sure you keep checking back because they are always adding new items!
P.S. Their sister site The Outnet's Clearance sale ALSO started!!
My process: On the first day of the sale I go through every item and add anything I like to my sale wish list, not paying attention to price. Yes, I am insane. But I have a system... After everything I like is in my wish list I let it sit there. Slowly items sell out and I go through and get rid of things I definitely won't wear. I also wait until the final reductions, which come in a few weeks. This is risky, but also good for my wallet. If an item I have been lusting over for a long time shows up in the sale I may purchase it in the first round, but that is rare. If I do that, I don't wear the item until the sale is over. Why do you ask? Because it could go more on sale and I can buy it again and return one (they don't do price adjustments during the sale) or I may find something better when final reductions start and I can return the more expensive piece in favor of something that is kinder to my wallet.

Oh you have so many nice pieces on your wishlist! I try to hold out for the final reductions on the sales too, but I haven't found anything I just have to have in the sales yet. Probably better for my wallet, given that on Thursday I spent most of the day finishing my Christmas shopping! Just a couple hard to buy for people left!

Ooooh you have a beautiful selection of wishlist, especially those jumpers and coats have my heart. I'm hardly lucky when it comes to waiting for the final reduction, so I usually buy during the first sale.
