There are so many reasons to love Memorial Day weekend. It's the unofficial start of summer – a weekend to go to the beach, soak up the sun in your backyard, host barbecues, and, of course, enjoy an extra day off. But as a Style Editor, my favorite thing about Memorial Day weekend is the unmissable sales shopping.
I like to think of Memorial Day sales as an invitation to upgrade your home ahead of summer without spending a fortune. It's a time to shop the hottest design trends of the season while major discounts are at their peak. And this year, our favorite brands are hosting huge, usually site-wide, sales. Magnolia and McGee & Co. – two of our top designer-led brands – are hosting sitewide sales of up to 60% off and 30% off, respectively, while larger retailers like West Elm, Crate & Barrel, Article, and Anthropologie are offering exciting discounts on select styles, too.
If you need new bedding before these hot summer nights kick in, Brooklinen, Cozy Earth, and Parachute Home are running sales on their sites. Or, if your kitchen needs new plates, platters, or cookware ahead of the summer hosting season, Williams Sonoma's sale can help you get what you need for less. Of course, outdoor essentials are included in this holiday sale too. Some of the best outdoor furniture from places like Lulu and Georgia, Pottery Barn, and Wayfair is all on sale right now, and it can help you refresh your patio before the summer officially starts.
I've spent lots of time sorting through the sales, and below, I've curated a collection of the best furniture, decor, and outdoor must-haves to snap up ahead of summer.
