Luxury items and designer goods usually only show up in my possession if they were purchased secondhand. But a couple of times per year, my opportunity to buy brand new stuff from magazine-level designers manifests through a ridiculous sale at a high end store. With Memorial Day right around the corner, we’re in prime new-stuff territory, and we’re starting out the season of actually-affordable-designer-stuff with the Barney’s Warehouse 50% off sale.
The sale just started on Tuesday, and it doesn’t end until next Wednesday, so there’s plenty of time to score. But what kind of scores could there be for anyone who can’t drop $600 on severely discounted, chain-mail trimmed Prada pajama pants?
Here’s what you’ll find at the Barney’s Warehouse Memorial Day Sale for under $100:
- Swimwear
- Activewear
- Jewelry
- Handbags
- Eyewear
- Casual Tops
- Basics
- Lingerie
- Candles
Not bad, right?
I always love Memorial Day sales because they tend to affect the things you’re about to need, like swimsuits, sandals, and sunglasses.
Solid & Striped Bikini Top $78 $25 Bottoms $83 $30 | Ondademar Sandals $110 $25
If you’re into the idea of a summer wardrobe, this is probably the place to acquire all of the necessary accessories. Scarves are in abundance, which is semi-ironic as we enter the hottest months of the year, but you can’t deny that they’re a good sunburn prevention item when tank top season rolls around! And, of course, you need some glasses and hats to round out your “I’m not trying to get burned” fashion look.

For those who use the sunshine to motivate them in the fitness department, you’ll be all over the activewear in this sale. Really cute sports bras by Electric Yoga and Live the Process are highlights of the upper activewear department, and then the bottoms take over. There are so many workout leggings in this sale, and due to the demographic, they’re all cute AF.

Electric Yoga Widow Faux Leather Sports Bra $72 $16 | Electric Yoga Moto Tech-Jersey Leggings $98 $20
In total, there are over 500 items in the Barney’s Warehouse sale that are under $100. That’s not bad, all considering, and most of those items are so far under $100 that the categorization seems silly.
