EDITOR'S NOTE
Even though Nordstrom’s Half-Yearly Sale has just ended, the retailer’s sale section still has quite a bit to offer. You’ll find deep discounts on everything from designer bags and covetable beauty to cozy PJs and stylish shoes. I’ll be buying another pair of the sneakers I’ve been wearing with pretty much everything and this sweet paper clip necklace.

Abercrombie & Fitch’s Winter Sale
Get up to 50% off almost everything until January 8.
If there’s any brand that knows how to do a sale (and do it well), it’s Abercrombie. Just in time for a New Year’s closet fresh, the retailer is offering up to 50% off everything until Thursday. Including its cult-favorite jeans.
Three Totally Random Things
Here are three random products we’re loving this week:
Hero Cosmetic Mighty Patch for Tired Eyes
Our editor's new favorite eye mask. They’ll turn clear when it’s time to take them off.
Quince Mongolian Cashmere Oversized Boyfriend Cardigan
We see you, Jenni Kayne dupe.
Prequel Gleanser
A glycerin-packed cleanser that’s safe for all kinds of sensitive skin.
(Not So) Silly Little Treat
In our series (Not So) Silly Little Treat, Skimm’rs share the joy-sparking products they’re buying during the week. Today’s submission? A cozy clip.
“I bought these soft, flexible hair claws called Cozy Clips after seeing them on an Instagram Reel — they were just what I was looking for. I’ve heard too many horror stories about car accidents with plastic hair claws, so their genius, flexible design keeps my anxiety at bay. I can never recreate the same updo twice, so taking my hair down just to drive isn’t realistic.” —Emma P., 28, Phoenix AZ
Skimm+ Exclusive
The most expensive money mistakes don’t happen at checkout
Impulse buys get blamed for everything. Meanwhile, the biggest money decisions women make — about jobs, timing, and risk — rarely get the same attention.
In this Skimm+ conversation, we’re sitting down with Vivian Tu (@YourRichBFF) to talk about the money choices that actually moved her financial life forward. Not budgeting rules. Not spending guilt. Just how she weighed tradeoffs, timing, and risk — and why those decisions mattered more than any single purchase.
P.S. Skimm+ members who RSVP will have a chance to receive a free copy of Vivian’s new book, Well Endowed — while supplies last.
