Oh, it's a bad time to be a checkout.

Juuust in case you're not aware, we're coming into Sales Season, with Black Friday kicking off on November 29th and then rolling into Cyber Monday on December 2nd.

But lots of retailers have started the party early and are already offering significant markdowns — so if you need a dress for party season, or some chunky sandals to pair with all your summer outfits, this is your moment.

Watch: Jessica Vander Leahy tries the Style Maths Method. Post continues after video.

Aje has 25 per cent off site-wide, P.E Nation's offering up to 70 per cent off, Wittner's giving you early access to their Black Friday sale… and that's barely scratching the surface.

I like to keep a perennial wishlist of the styles I'm eyeing off so I'm ready to pounce once the sales hit. This year my focus is on pieces I'll get lots of mileage out of over summer: the perfect elevated flats, some chic black sunglasses, chunky gold earrings, and a few stylish dresses I can throw on and head out the door.

I've held off this long — so if you need me, no you don't; please respect my need to shop at this time.

(Just want to see the Black Friday deals? We've compiled a list of all the markdowns across fashion, beauty and lifestyle. You can also scroll to the bottom of this article for all the fashion deals in one place. And while you're at it, check out a stylist's guide to shopping the sales.)
