SALES – WHERE TO GO

With the sales frenzy underway it can sometimes be difficult choosing where to go. It is also worth remembering that sales are there to get rid of excess stock and while 75% off may sound good, it is probably because it’s a one season item that will no longer appeal next year. Try and stick to investment pieces such as coats, suits, cotton tees and underpants, here is where the true deals lie.
