With gifting season behind us (at least until Valentine’s Day), we’ve unearthed some more practical picks for you and your home in today’s sweep through the internet’s collective sales bins. There’s a bunch of winter-ready boots for him and her, a sleek-looking sleeper sofa for under $2,000 (which is actually something of an interior-design white whale), and a reed diffuser that will give your home some orange-blossom-scented calm.
A Chelsea-boot alternative to the L.L.Bean Classic — except this waterproof pair from Lands’ End is well under $100 and has a lifetime warranty.
If, like Strategist deputy editor Maxine Builder, you “do not believe in straying from a classic,” these Bean Boots — which Builder has worn for the past decade’s worth of winters — are 15 percent off.
An interior-design white whale: a sleek-looking sleeper sofa — from West Elm’s interior-designer-recommended line — that’s (now) under $2,000.
This beaded hair clip from Shrimps — Susan Alexandra’s unofficial, U.K.-based cousin — is so deeply discounted that we think it’s worth buying now just to wear to next year’s New Year’s Eve party (fingers crossed).
Another pair of boots from a Strategist-writer-approved brand, but this pebbled cowhide set from Sorel is for him (and would look just as nice on the streets as on the trail).
It’s a new year! Swap your plain kicks for this crochet-detailed pair, made in a collaboration between Adidas and Wales Bonner — one of our favorite Black-owned businesses.
Ordinarily, shopping for Valentine’s Day more than a month in advance might seem excessive, but given the state of holiday-delivery delays, you might just want to consider this giftable orange blossom-scented reed diffuser a sign (especially if your partner has been in search of a signature home scent).
We don’t often see Strategist-favorite bedding items from Parachute on sale, but right now this set of textured shams, from its collaboration with Madewell, is just $35 when you use the code GIGANTIC at checkout (that’s $17.50 per sham case, down from the usual price of $34 each).
Today only at Macy’s, winter-ready coats for the whole family are up to 70 percent off, including this under-$20 puffer for kids with a dinosaur-hood embellishment.
Half off a pair of high-waisted stretchy Everlane pants — available in sizes 00 through 16 — which are comfortable enough to wear while working from home and nice enough to wear to the office (whenever that happens again).
The Strategist is designed to surface the most useful, expert recommendations for things to buy across the vast e-commerce landscape. Some of our latest conquests include the best acne treatments, rolling luggage, pillows for side sleepers, natural anxiety remedies, and bath towels.
