8 Best Weekend Sales: 80% Off Madewell, $44 Coach Bags, and Zara Staples From $11

The obvious perk of a long holiday weekend is that extra day of rest, but my favorite part is that nearly all of my go-to brands are usually on major sale. Best yet, I don’t even have to wait to shop the deals thanks to a handful of early bird sales.

Today alone, I’ve found everything from double-discount deals on Kate Spades handbags to major markdowns—I’m talking up to 80 percent off—on winter staples at Madewell, Zara, and Anthropologie. Plus, score savings on celebrity-loved makeup, a wrinkle-zapping LED face mask, and Coach bags.

8 Best Weekend Sales

Below, shop my top picks from the best sales this weekend, starting at just $11.

Coach Outlet Sale

Maggie Tote Bag

Not only can you save on classic styles at Coach’s outlet store—like the Ellie File bag and this slouchy shoulder bag—but there are also markdowns on just-dropped spring styles, including the floral Rowan Satchel and a star-covered wristlet, which is now just $44. But of all the discounted bags, my favorite is the Maggie Tote, which is made from a croc-embossed burgundy leather, a.k.a. this season’s ‘It’ color.

Rowan Rose Print Satchel Bag

Madewell End of Season Sale

Wool-Blend Crewneck Cardigan

Madewell’s End of Season sale actually blew me away thanks to 80 percent off winter styles like this silky long-sleeve top and $18 classic cardigans (don’t forget to snag extra savings on both with the code EXTRA25 at checkout). Other stand-out deals include this 73-percent off alpaca-blend sweater, these trending wide-leg jeans, and this classic winter peacoat, which is nearly $150 off.

Superwide-Leg Jeans

Cinched Long-Sleeve Top

Zara Winter Sale

Flowy Buckle Top

Zara’s prices are usually within my budget, but its markdowns are really good, with so many under-$50 steals during its winter sale. I’m personally eyeing this 100-percent silk slip dress (yes, you read that right), but there’s also an $11 knit tank, $16 blouse, 60-percent off the comfiest drawstring pants, and the coolest $27 A-line dress.

Short Houndstooth Blazer

Nordstrom Winter Sale

Spanx AirEssentials Shimmer Wide Leg Pants

Nordstrom has markdowns on pretty much everything ahead of the long weekend, from baggy Levi’s jeans and Oprah-favorite Spanx sweats to Ugg’s platform clogs. But there was one deal that really surprised me: Solawave’s Wrinkle Retreat Light Therapy Face Mask. Not only did almost everyone I talk to want one for Christmas (if you didn’t get one, now’s your chance), but a beauty editor’s 57-year-old mother reported that this exact mask plumped and firmed her skin, making her look five years younger.

Anthropologie Double-Discount Sale

Pilcro Crew-Neck Ruched and Smocked-Sleeve Top

Anthropologie just marked all of its sale items down by an extra 50 percent—this is a run, don’t walk kind of moment. The best deal is on this chic-and-cozy sweater dress, but there are plenty of other great winter discounts, including this sweater tee and these wide-leg velvet pants, both of which are under $50. My personal favorites, however, include this ruffle mini dress—it will transition into spring with ease—and this $25 smocked-sleeve top.

Kate Spade Double-Discount Sale

Katy Medium Shoulder Bag

Kate Spade also launched a double-discount sale, with sale styles now an extra 40 percent off. There are of course great deals on bags; the sleek Katy shoulder bag is 61 percent off while this tweed satchel is more than $230 off. But there are also surprisingly good shoe markdowns. These strappy pumps are now just $98, while these timeless knee-high boots that you’ll wear for years are now 46 percent off.

Laura Geller Makeup Sale

Baked Balance-n-Brighten Color Correcting Foundation

Laura Geller is the makeup brand beauty editors, actresses, and Oprah all swear by, and its products are all 40 percent off right now. For skin, the InStyle team says that the Baked Balance-n-Brighten Color Correcting Foundation gives them an “airbrushed” look, though shoppers also love the your-skin-but-better tinted moisturizer. And don’t forget to first start with the blurring primer, which Fran Drescher just used.

Tula Sitewide Sale

Advanced Retinal and Peptides Serum

You can upgrade your skincare routine for less this weekend at Tula, where every product is 25 percent off. If you’re not sure where to start, let me help you out. For staples, you’ve got this daily cleanser, which has more than 4,400 fans, this under-eye balm, which InStyle’s beauty editor said “instantly brightened” her dark circles, and this glow-enhancing sunscreen. But if you’re looking to target wrinkles and dark spots, make sure to grab the newly-launched  Advanced Retinal and Peptides serum and this shopper-favorite vitamin C serum.
