Joanna Goddard’s Favorite Underwear, a Laneige Gift Set, and 40 More Great Deals
In this article
Fall fashion abound this week: We put together some dedicated guides to all the best deals on jackets and comfy shoes, and I’ll say that it’s worth checking out Banana Republic, Merrell, and Levi’s in particular. (It’s also a good time to get some new flannel sheets while Brooklinen is having a sitewide sale.) And if the seasonal shift has you taking stock of your skincare routine both Credo and Amazon have you covered with some very good — and vast! — discounts.
As always, make sure to sign up for the Strategist Deal Freaks Daily newsletter to receive the day’s best deals in your inbox daily, including sales just for newsletter subscribers. And if you want even more, sign up for our regular email newsletter for tons more newsletter exclusives.

Women’s fashion
Everything is 40 percent off at Levi’s through Monday, which is a marginally better deal than the brand typically offers. (I’ll usually see 30 percent off, max.) While I usually recommend the Ribcage Straight Ankle jeans to anyone who will listen, I’ve recently traded them in for the Ribcage Slim jeans, which are a bit stretchier and have a longer leg.

Former managing editor Kelsie Schrader says these jeans fit “truly perfectly.” They’re “not tight anywhere, yet they still look fitted, so they don’t overwhelm me,” she writes. She opted to size up and have the waist taken in, and “they are the only jeans I’ve worn since.”

Jockey Elance String Bikini - 3 Pack
This is a rare chance to snag some of our (and Joanna Goddard’s) favorite underwear at a sizable discount. They’re now just over $5 apiece.
It’s comfy shoe season, and we’ve rounded up all the best ones that also happen to be on sale. Nordstrom, naturally, has a lot on offer, and I’ve been charmed by these Dansko-esque clogs with a fuzzy lining.
Speaking of vaguely orthopedic shoes, many a nice Merrell moc is up to 40 percent off as part of the brand’s mid-season sale.
Men’s fashion
The men’s section at Merrell has a lot of good slip-ons (in neutrals!), too.
Treat yourself to some new jeans while everything’s 40 percent off at Levi’s, including already-on-sale items.
Beauty
Amazon’s Holiday Beauty Event is back, and the discounts are strong on hydrating skin care for winter dryness, plenty of lip stuff — from balms to glosses — and a few nice sets that would make good gifts. And don’t skip the flash deals: New markdowns pop up every 48 hours until the sale ends on Sunday, November 1.

The health and wellness deals aren’t as robust, but there are a few boring-but-worthy finds — like a petite water flosser and nasal strips.
And for the clean-beauty warriors, Credo’s biannual Friends of Credo Sale comes but twice per year. Everything is 20 percent off sitewide through Sunday night, and we’ve put together a handy guide to all the best Strategist-approved things on sale.
Verb’s Ghost collection has been featured on just about every Best in Class hair-care guide we’ve published, from shampoos and conditioners to masks and oils. It’s on sale through the end of the month when you use the code GHOULS26 at checkout. (They’re also 15 percent off at Amazon, if you don’t want to pay for shipping.)

Home
Cooler weather means it’s time to swap percale for flannel and break out the quilts and comforters. Luckily, one of our favorite places to shop for bedding is having a sale. At Brooklinen, you can get 20 percent off everything and up to 50 percent off bundles through the end of the weekend.
Kids

Senior editor Jen Trolio’s tweens are doing some serious bedroom redecorating. “One of the first things we bought to help personalize the new room fast was this cat switch plate to zhuzh up an outlet that’s in a particularly visible and inconvenient spot,” she writes.

They’re on the hunt for desks for doing homework, crafting, and reading. This one from Burrow is a contender; Trolio likes how the shelf can help keep the top clear.
