I’m not exaggerating when I say that about half my summer wardrobe is made up of Reformation. The Los Angeles-based brand has been my go-to for years, whether for its easy everyday summer dresses, chic wedding guest looks, denim staples, or breezy linen separates—all of which ooze effortless cool-girl vibes like no other.
The fact that Reformation is also dedicated to sustainable practices, releases limited quantities of each design, and actually makes an effort to be size inclusive serves only to make it all the more appealing. And when the brand’s bi-annual sale rolls around, it becomes nothing short of irresistible.

There are two major Reformation sale events each year: one in mid-August and the other post-Christmas, both offering 30% off a range of items both online and in-store. It’s my prime time to pounce and snap up those pieces I’ve been eyeing for weeks—because while I’d say that Ref is well worth the investment, it’s definitely on the pricier end of the spectrum, so skimming that little extra sum off the top definitely helps.
With years of experience under my belt, I’d consider myself a full-blown Reformation sales shopping expert by now—so to put my very niche skills to good use (and distract me from buying everything myself), I’ve picked out my 11 favourite discounted items to shop now.
Lace-trimmed slip dresses have emerged as one of the hottest trends of the year so far, and this mini style will work well paired with boots, tights and a knit layer for the colder months too.

Clementine Heeled Mule Sandal
The fact that these mules share my name isn’t the only reason they’re on my wishlist… I’d style them with black capris, a white linen top, oval sunnies and a silk scarf for optimal Euro summer vibes.

Tagliatelle Linen Dress
Reformation’s Tagliatelle linen dress has become something of an icon the past few summers, so it’s worth snapping it up while it’s on rare sale. This would also make a great investment for a summer bride-to-be.

Jadey Cashmere Oversized V-Neck Sweater
The idea of touching cashmere right now might be enough to bring you out in hives, but give a thought to your future autumn/winter self, who will be supremely appreciative to have this super-soft, highly versatile jumper to hand. If it’s good enough for Selena Gomez, Daisy Edgar-Jones, Mikey Madison and Miley Cyrus…
Reformation
Moya Linen Two Piece
I tried this chic and supremely flattering two-piece set on last summer, and still regret not buying it there and then. I can’t count the number of occasions I’ve wished I could wear it to. Don’t make my same mistake.
Reformation
Finley Low Rise 11″ Baggy Jorts
As someone who never thought of themselves as a jorts girl, this was the pair that finally convinced me to give the trend a go. I haven’t looked back since.
Reformation
Marella Linen Dress
Ticking off the gingham, butter-yellow and cottage-core trends in one—and for less than £200—this is a no-brainer. It also boasts a shirred back so there’s enough space for the bigger-boobed among us.
Reformation
Small Mesh Silvana Bucket Bag
Tempting as it was, spending £200 on a see-through mesh bag never quite sat right with me. Now that it’s closer to the £100-mark, though? I’m in.
Whether worn now with a colourful mule (the afore-featured Clementine, perhaps?) for a summery event, or with sheer black tights, killer stilettos and glitzy accessories come festive season, this is a party dress you’ll turn to time and time again.
Reformation
Reed Slingback Heel
I’m a firm proponent of the power of a fabulous shoe, so these leopard-print, calf-hair slingbacks are right up my street. I’d wear them with black barrel-leg jeans and a simple white tee for the ultimate low-lift, fashion-girl look.
Reformation
Carla Low Waist Skirt
Yet another item I’ve had my eye on for about a year, and that I’ll be snapping up stat now that it’s less than £100. New year’s eve, here I come.
