The Best Memorial Day Clothing Sales You Can Start Shopping Now

As someone who lives for a good sale section, Memorial Day weekend (which falls on May 27-29 this year, just FYI) is one of my favorite times to shop. Timed right at the turn of the season, it’s the ideal time to score big on coats, cashmere sweaters, and other cold-weather essentials you’ll thank yourself for on brisk summer nights. And to make room for new summer colors and styles, retailers offer huge Memorial Day clothing sales on spring dresses, cruise-season swimwear, and other “seasonal” items that look just as stylish now as they did six weeks ago.

While there are tons of incredible Memorial Day fashion sales in the works, you don’t need to wait until the end of the month to save big on workout sets, work clothes, jeans, wedding guest dresses, or whatever else your summer wardrobe needs. To help you score the best deals, I’ve rounded up all the promo codes you’ll need to shop the amazing end-of-season sales and early Memorial Day clothing deals happening now. (You’re welcome.)
