If you’re anything like us, you often tend to go into a bit of a blind frenzy around sale time, buying everything with a low price tag as you just can’t resist a good bargain. But don’t be too hasty, a lot pieces in the summer sale will be unwearable past August.

In order to make the most of your money, be a savvy shopper and invest in sale pieces that will carry you through to next season. Not sure what to buy? Here’s our guide of what to shop for in the sales…

Colours

Camel, beige and brown were seen all over the a/w collections so anything in these colours will be bang on trend come autumn.

Our pick: Yellow Is For Gold shorts £19.99 Urban Outfitters sale

Coats

Summer is a great time to buy coats at their cheapest, but be careful not to buy something that won’t be in style come September. Military and utility are two big trends for next season.

Our pick: South Utility jacket £13.50 Very.com sale

Basics

Lightweight tees and jumpers are wardrobe staples. Choose neutral colours pieces as these can be worn all year round.

Our pick: Fake Layer Tees £4.99 in Uniqlos sale

Jewellery

Perfect for parties all year round, a great cocktail ring is an inexpensive way to glitz up an autumnal outfit.

Our pick: Pearl Cocktail Ring £5 in the Topshop sale
