Boxing Day might be over, but the designer sales are still in full swing. All the big players are offering incredible vouchers and discounts on clothing, shoes and handbags, including MyTheresa, MatchesFashion, Net-A-Porter and more, and I happen to think that it's the perfect time to invest in those classic pieces that you know will last you for years to come.

Designer sales quick links:

Although the offers have been live for a while, there are still some seriously impressive discounts on brands such as Jimmy Choo, Miu Miu, Ganni and more.

Here's everything I'm shopping in the designer sales:

She moved to the UK permanently and has never looked back (though she does go back regularly to stock up on cheese and wine).

Although she's always loved fashion - she used to create scrapbooks of her favourite trends and looks, including Sienna Miller and Kate Moss' boho phase - her first job was at MoneySavingExpert.com, sourcing the best deals for everything from restaurants to designer sales.

However she quit after two years to follow her true passion, fashion journalism, and after many years of internships and freelance stints at magazines including Red, Cosmopolitan, Stylist and Good Housekeeping, landed her dream job as the Digital Fashion Editor at Marie Claire UK.

Her favourite part of the job is discovering new brands and meeting designers, and travelling the world to attend events and fashion shows. Seeing her first Chanel runway IRL at Paris Fashion Week was a true pinch-me moment.
