Quince is having a 24 hour sale today, and the timing couldn't be worse for me ๐ We fly to Italy next week, and my suitcase is already packed. I honestly wish our trip was a month later, so I could jump on some of these deals myself. But you know how much I love Quince, so I didn't want you to miss it. ๐ฑ One heads up before you shopThis sale is ONLY in the Quince app. Annoying, I know, but I can't control that LOL So grab your phone and download the app (iPhone or Android). Then come back to this email and please use my links! Affiliate income helps me a TON and it's how I keep these newsletters free and without any sponsored content! Here's what's on sale and what's actually worth it: ๐งถ CashmereI'm bringing this cashmere midi skirt to Italy, and right now it's 15% off ($99.90 โ $84.92). It looks fancy, but it's secretly as comfy as wearing a blanket. The ribbed texture gives it shape (no sad sagging here), and it hits right below the knee (for me at 5'4"). Wear it with booties + tights and a sweater for a cozy matching set look, or dress it down with sneakers and a tee. My cashmere crewneck isn't on sale this time (sorry!), but if you've been hunting for extended sizes, the plus size cashmere crewneck is ($64.90 โ $55.17). Then there are the extra cozy ones:
These are perfect for everyday life, but not for every trip. They're bulkier, so keep that in mind ๐ If you travel with one (because they're so cute!), stick to just one and wear it on travel days so it won't ever see the inside of your suitcase. And if you love a one and done outfit, the turtleneck sweater dress is $20 off too ($119.90 โ $99.90, heather grey only). ๐งฅ CoatsIf you're traveling somewhere cold this winter (or need a nice coat), your outer layer is the one piece you don't want to get wrong. (Emergency coat shopping on a trip? Not ideal) Pick it by the forecast. A trench for milder fall days, a wool coat or puffer when it gets properly cold.
A cashmere sweater under a wool coat with leather boots looks sleek and keeps you SO warm! ๐ Bags, suitcase and shoesI have a few Quince bags, and their Italian leather is chef's kiss. I'm not a huge logo person, and that's why I love these so much. A backpack is my personal item on every trip because it doubles as my day bag:
I travel with a different carry-on, but the Quince carry-on is great quality and way more budget friendly than a lot of premium suitcases out there ($129.90 โ $109.90). If you've been debating a new one, this might be your momentโฆ and then I'll teach you exactly how to travel with it ๐ And if you wear tights in the fall, these loafers are so chic! โ๏ธ Running away from the cold this winter? (my people)I see you ๐ These linen favorites of mine are 20% off:
โ ๏ธ Before you shopโฆUse this sale to save on things you already need or have been eyeing. Not to add impulse buys you'll regret next week. I don't want to be responsible for impulse buys ๐ we don't do that around here! If something's been on your list, this is a great time to grab it at a discount. That's why I'm sharing it. Happy (smart!) shopping! [remember this is just available inside the Quince app] XO, Aimara >>> PS: If you're shopping, please use my links. That's how I keep this space ad free. Thank you so much in advance! |

โItchy just thinking about itโ Thatโs what one of you wrote back after my fall packing list email a few weeks back. She wasnโt the only one. Every time I mention merino or cashmere, a few of you reply with some version of: love the list, canโt wear half of it. Meanwhile Iโve been over here recommending merino and cashmere like itโs my job. (It kind of is ๐ ) So todayโs email is for you. Same goal as always: warm, cute, and light enough for a carry-on. Zero wool. Why those fabrics feel so...
There are two kinds of women reading this email right now. One of you has a packing list that was made months ago. Checked twice. Possibly color coded. Your suitcase comes out of the closet 2 months early โto give yourself time.โ The other one? Your bag doesnโt come out until the night before. Maybe the morning of. You throw a few things in, zip it, and tell yourself what you always tell yourself: it always works out. Type A packer. Type B packer. You already know which one you are. (youโre...
Think about the last 12 months. How many pieces in your closet showed up in January AND July? For most pieces, the honest answer is: they didnโt. They work one season, maybe two, then they hibernate. Which means you paid full price for a part time wardrobe. I think about this every time I pack. I fit multiple climates into one 20 inch carry-on, and the pieces that always make the cut are the ones that never take a season off. Those are the pieces worth your money. One catch though: โall yearโ...
