I Just Found So Many Expensive-Looking Staples in the High-Street Sales

It might feel as though we've only just entered the summer season, but believe it or not, the epic sales have already arrived. And let me tell you, this year, they're looking pretty great. As usual, we're here to guide you and cut through the noise to bring you the very best, editor-approved sale buys you'll never regret adding to your wardrobe.

You can find our roundup of cult designer finds from Net-a-Porter's famously good sale hereMatchesFashion's here, and the top-tier sale buys across all of the luxury sales here.

But right now, I'm here to talk about the best of the high street. Other Stories, COS and Arket have been the first to drop this week among other favourites—all offering up an enviable selection of expensive-looking warm-weather staples, from dresses and denim to sandals and skirts.

So far, Arket's summer-ready wardrobe classics are at the top of my wish list, especially those linen shirts and chunky sandals. Meanwhile, Weekday's denim (which I rely on day to day) is seriously discounted, and COS is plainly spoiling us with forever pieces.

There's a lot to scroll through, though, and plenty more offers set to arrive. So to save you time, I'm painstakingly combing all the high-street sales I can find and bringing you a definitive edit of the pieces you won't want to miss below. Think of this as your one-stop high street sales shop—and be sure to keep checking back for new additions when they drop.
