The deal ends very soon, so you have very little time to save lots of cash on dresses, swimwear, tops, and shorts that you can still get plenty of use out of before Labor Day brings summer fun to a screeching halt. And, as I’ve said before, it’s my experience that clothes that were purchased on sale have a tendency to look better on you in addition to making you feel like the smartest shopper in the world. Therefore, it’s only natural to assume that you’ll feel extra sexy, summery, and smart in any of your fabulous end-of-summer bargains from Athleta.

Between picking up your youngest from swim practice, driving your oldest to summer camp, convincing your middle child that it is not OK to dye her hair, and making dinner for an exhausted husband, you’re just about ready to take on any other season besides the summer. As we begin moving into a new season, here are a few ways to bid the summer good-bye and make way for the chill of fall.

Knead the Stress Away: While it’s true that you haven’t had a moment to spare lately, it’s about time that you did. Ask your husband or sister to pick the kids up one day and buy yourself 50 solid minutes of a deep tissue massage. You will come out of the spa feeling rejuvenated and ready to take on the world!

One Piece Won’t Hurt: Tonight is date night and your husband is taking you to a new restaurant that’s famous for their desserts. Spoil yourself for an evening and indulge in an ooey gooey brownie, a delectable gelato, or a mouthwatering piece of chocolate cake. Don’t worry about the calories; you’ll burn them off tomorrow!

Fill Up a Shopping Bag: Recent window shopping and the arrival of fall fashions have got you itching to indulge. Yet, you’re wondering if you really need to spend the money. Thanks to Bedford Fair’s special sale, you can receive 40% off all orders before July 31 (code: WEBOU). This way you can afford to do more than simply peruse beautiful cardigans, embroidered tunics, and much more!

Hats: When the heat strikes, a hat is a great way to rejuvenate an outfit. Suddenly, your go-to white sundress seems right on-trend with a floppy hat to top it off. If you’re lounging poolside in your favorite black cotton cover-up, try pairing it with a bold fedora for a great new look that also wards off the sun.

Shoes: If your wedges from last season seem tired and worn, invest in a new pair that can spice up any outfit. New styles from Steve Madden rock bold floral and animal prints, as well as a wide range of bright colors, such as teal, coral, and pink. These shoes will add some much-needed pizzazz to any solid color dress, or to your favorite T-shirt and jeans. Thankfully, you can get 15% off purchases of $75 or more until July 31, letting you expand your shoes collection like never before (code: MADDEN).

Purses: Ditch your neutral-colored bags and color outside the lines with this season’s trend of vividly colored handbags. Go for lipstick red, juicy tangerine, or sea-green purses in supple leathers with details such as fringe and studs.

Bold Bikini: If your plans for the holiday include sun and sand, invest in a nautical-inspired bikini to brighten up your day. You can choose one that incorporates all three patriot colors or perhaps strut you stuff  in a bold solid-color suit. Not only will you stay cool in the scorching summer heat of July, but you’ll be sporting a classic American look that is ideal for the occasion.

Sizzling Shoes: If the rest of your outfit is simple and neutral, like a classic white eyelet sundress, then let your feet do all the talking. Opt for a pair of red-hot wedges that will add a bold pop of patriotic color to the rest of your attire. If you’re feeling daring, try the mile-high Chinese Laundry Drastic Wedge sandal from Macy’s. Luckily, Macy’s is offering $10 off orders of $75 or more until June 30 (code: XJW562A992) – so make sure you plan your ensemble ahead of time, and start shopping!

Sunny Shoes: Free your feet from their painful, pointy-toed pump prison that is your go-to winter work staple. Instead, choose a stylish pair of closed-toe wedges in cream or black that are perfect for the season. They look stylish and savvy paired with either a flowing dress or skirt, and the neutral color and demure toe ensure that they’re still office appropriate.

Wearable White: Ditch the dark colors and opt for crisp, bright white for your summer wardrobe. Come casual Friday at the office, leave your black blazer at home, and choose a trendy white three-quarter-length sleeve option instead. No need to empty your wallet on this key clothing piece; browse Gap.com, where you can get 30% off your order until June 24 (code: GPSURPRISE). Pair it with a floral top, dark skinny jeans, and a gold pendant necklace, and you have a look that all the girls in the office will admire.

Standing Out: Since standing out in the crowd is of the utmost importance to the fan attempting to lock eyes with his or her favorite musical front man, wardrobe decisions are crucial. Bright colors, band merchandise, and interesting accessories are always a wise choice. At the same time, when two to three concerts per month starts to burn a hole through your thin yet fashionably ornamented pocket, budgeting and smart shopping becomes key.

Get Your Money’s Worth: Thankfully, Hot Topic is offering an online exclusive. Until May 30, you can take an extra 50% off of all clearance items. Although sale sections in some stores are full of unappealing garb that retailers simply could not sell on the main floor, Hot Topic’s marked down products include top-quality merchandise ranging from body jewelry to shoes to music T-shirts and accessories for both guys and girls. With over 4,000 items to choose from including products from music-inspired clothing lines and accessories, band T-shirts, unique memorabilia and much more, dressing for the melodic occasion becomes fun, simple, and affordable.

The Maxi Dress: Long flowing summer dresses don’t scream glamour; they simply whisper the message with every gentle sweeping stride.

Big Colorful Bags: I have long been a proponent of the big summer carry-all bag. It’s the best way to get yourself and all your must-have summer gear from point A to point B.

Sandals with Flair: Sandals that are embellished with beads, stones and other low-key details add a subtle, yet noticeable pop to summer footwear.

That 70s Blouse: Flower power is back, but this season the look is a lot more sophisticated. Billowy blouses in elegant patterns add a touch of the past to one of the season’s hottest looks.

Bangles Away: Whether they’re bold and chunky or slim and sophisticated, a wrist accented by bangles adds just the right amount of glamour to any summer look.

Faded Denim Shorts: They don’t have to actually be your old denim shorts from back in the day; they just have to look that way. Slightly worn-looking or distressed denim shorts were made for lazy days at the beach or simply scuttling around town.

Wonderful Wedges: Not only are they sexy and summery, but you never have to worry about sinking into the grass at an outdoor wedding again.

Aviator Sunglasses: No pilot’s license required.

Cover-Ups: It only makes sense to stock up on swimsuit cover-ups that can take you from the sand to late-night cocktails at the hotel bar.

A Radiant Glow: One of the best ways to achieve a summer glow is to fake it. Powdered bronzers and self-tanners are two of your best friends this season.

Hats: A summer hat is the perfect way to look chic and keep the sun out of your eyes and off your face. You can’t go wrong with a floppy wide-brim straw hat, and for a sportier look, try a visor or even a military cap.  

Sportswear: Sportswear (aka the clothes that you spend your life in) most likely make up the bulk of your wardrobe. (I know I personally own at least 10 pairs of jeans and six or seven hoodies). Sportswear staples like jeans, T-shirts, hoodies, and capris, will get you through vacation as well as the rest of your life in the most comfortable fashion possible. And for a limited time Amazon.com is offering 20%-off sportswear apparel for men and women, from brands like Hurley, Quicksilver, and Roxy (code ACTION20).

Swimwear: Swimwear can be a scary avenue to travel down, but the best way to look hot is to make sure that you pick out the suit that’s right for you. The right suit should accentuate the positive, and well, at least draw attention away from the negative. Luckily, that 20%-off Amazon.com sportswear discount applies to swimwear looks from Rip Curl, Volcom, and others.
