Three big sales are happening this weekend. It’s your last chance to shop Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale before it ends on Sunday night, Everlane is discounting its best sellers by 25 percent, and Article is offering deals on all its outdoor furnishings. Scroll on to see my top picks, as well as a mishmash of other excellent deals from across the internet’s sales bins, like mosquito-repelling bracelets, a supportive Tempur-Pedic pillow, and the banana-shaped toy that every cat I’ve ever met is obsessed with. And as always, make sure to sign up for our email newsletter for five more deals handpicked by yours truly.
Keep mosquitoes at bay with these essential-oil-infused — geraniol, lemongrass, and citronella, specifically — bracelets. Each one lasts about ten days and looks “like a hair tie and smells like a picnic in the park,” according to Strategist senior writer Liza Corsillo.
Tegu’s magnetic wooden building blocks often appear on our lists of best toys for kids, as they’ll entertain kids of all ages while also promoting early STEM skills.

A trio of cotton shorts for your little one.
Nordstrom’s Anniversary Sale ends on Sunday night, so don’t dillydally. Lingerie expert Cora Harrington says Chantelle’s fabric is “soft, smooth, seamless, super comfortable, and it wicks moisture away effortlessly from the skin (a necessity in hot weather!).”

This rarely-on-sale Longchamp for weekend getaways is available in navy blue, red, and gold.

Clearance items are an extra 25 percent off this weekend, too, making these Levi’s cutoffs — which come in sizes 24 through 34 — just $35.
The undisputed best cat toy is this banana from Yeowww! — it even made the Strategist 100 — and this bundle that includes some extra catnip is 22 percent off.
Best-selling styles are 25 percent off at Everlane through Sunday night. You can find the brand’s Italian leather Day Glove shoes across our archives, including our best-in-class ballet-flats roundup, as “they stay true to their name and truly fit like a glove,” according to Maisonette co-founder Sylvana Ward Durrett.
Our former associate editor Louis Cheslaw owns the athletic version of these stretch-denim jeans and says they “might just be the most comfortable I’ve ever owned.” The sizing is extensive, from waist size 28 to 40 and inseam length 28 to 34.

These classic Converse low-tops are somehow still in stock in pretty much every size.
Writer Latifah Miles says this sheet set from Cozy Earth feels like “crème brûlée — minus the sugar crust” and has a “silky smooth — and shiny — texture that I love.”

All outdoor furnishings and décor are on sale at Article until August 7. This Japanese-inspired lantern is available in two sizes, and would look at home in your living room, too.
Strategist writer Lauren Ro purchased this teak patio set last year and says that it was surprisingly easy to assemble and still looked great after leaving it outside during the winter months.
