Reformation’s last sale of the year is officially here, with some styles up to 50 percent off (a much better deal than the 25 percent it offered for Black Friday). Even though the sale just started today, markdowns are moving quickly — something to keep in mind if you’re one to hold out for a deeper discount down the line. It’s marketed as a Winter Sale — you might remember its Summer Sale in August — so you’ll find markdowns on cashmere sweaters and velvet dresses, not to mention lots of contenders for your New Year’s Eve outfit. To make sure you’re not scrolling mindlessly through pages of the sale, I rounded up everything worth getting here — from red satin pants to cotton-candy-colored loafers.
Tops
A quarter-zip that doesn’t lean into “off-duty investment banker” territory.
It’s high time to put away your short-sleeve tees and take out your long-sleeve tees — or buy a few new ones.
To replace your years-old American Apparel bodysuit that’s on its last legs.
You almost never see 100 percent wool sweaters near the $100 mark nowadays.
If you think wool is itchy, try cashmere. This neutral-colored button-down has something of a Nancy Meyers heroine quality to it.
This is going for around 10 times less than Totême’s sweater-scarf.
Bottoms
These jeans “never stretch out too much or lose their shape,” says actress Meghann Fahy. They’re not too short for those who are tall, either.
For horse girls, Bella Hadid copycats, and cowboy-boot owners.
Some going-out pants for when you’re out until 3 a.m. on New Year’s Eve (or a regular Friday evening).
You won’t have to worry about these pants looking wrinkled in the middle of the work day — they’re made from a stretchy modal-spandex blend.
You can get away with wearing this knit skirt when the radiator’s whistling or the air-conditioner’s on full blast.
Dresses
It’s one of the few formal Ref dresses you don’t need a special-occasion bra for.
It comes pocketed, if you’re forgoing a bag for a long night.
Outerwear
A yellow coat will pop on sidewalk blocks full of black puffers.
The jacket’s quilting will save you from those big, bad gusts of wind.
So you’re ready for first week of spring, or a week of 60-degree temperatures in the middle of winter.
Shoes
The words “Neapolitan ice cream” must’ve come up at a design meeting.
These cotton-candy-colored loafers belong in a Sofia Coppola movie.
A kittenish sillhouette for those who are getting back into wearing heels.
They’re a fraction of the cost of Tory Burch’s Patos flats.
I know the phrase “expensive looking” gets used a lot, but these ankle boots are impressively expensive looking (and less than $200).
