Boxing Day might be over, but the designer sales are still in full swing. All the big players are offering incredible vouchers and discounts on clothing, shoes and handbags, including MyTheresa, MatchesFashion, Net-A-Porter and more, and I happen to think that it's the perfect time to invest in those classic pieces that you know will last you for years to come.
