If you were wondering why so many sale emails have turned up in your inbox this morning, it's because today marks the first day of Afterpay's twice yearly sale event - Afterpay Day.
This year's August iteration of the sale starts today from 7am and will run for 89 hours wrapping up at midnight on Sunday August 22. There's also a few new features this time round. Some brands will be offering exclusive Afterpay Day product drops, and some others will have unique AR shopping experiences - think brands like Dyson and Sephora. You'll be able to view products in augmented reality before you buy.
If any of this has piqued your interest, we've curated an edit of sales that deserve your attention. All too often, sale events can be arenas for mindless spending and overconsumption of things we just don't really need. When a sale event does come around, we like to look at it as an opportunity to buy things you actually need, even if is just new socks to replace the ones wearing thin. Or timeless, quality pieces that will last, but at a more accessible price point.
As such, when curating our list of best sales we preferred to focus on brands that either create seasonless staples (a la Bonds) or the ones that create luxe pieces with a sustainable, treasure-long-term mindset. Rest assured, these are the brands that we buy from ourselves. We've included the best, and removed the rest. So below, find our RUSSH-editor-approved edit of best sales from the Afterpay Day sale 2021.
