Memorial Day – a.k.a. the unofficial start of summer and everyone’s favorite excuse to spend time outdoors – is finally here. Whether you've been enjoying beach trips, backyard dinners, or spontaneous barbecues this weekend, today marks the final day to make the most of the sales.

As a Style Editor, I’ve always viewed Memorial Day sales as a rapidly closing window to refresh your home before summer fully arrives – and before everyone else beats you to the good stuff. This is when the season’s biggest design trends hit their best prices, and this year’s markdowns are particularly good. Nordstrom’s Half-Yearly Sale alone includes up to 50% off everything from Parachute bedding and Le Creuset cookware to luxury throw pillows from Burberry.

Meanwhile, 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 already selling quickly, making now one of the best moments all year to refresh your setup before summer officially begins.

I've spent lots of time combing through the markdowns, and below, I’ve curated the very best furniture, decor, bedding, and outdoor finds worth grabbing before they disappear.
