'I shop for a living, and I actually can't believe these 12 styles are on sale right now.'

With the Black Friday sales already well underway (despite the main event officially kicking off this Friday), we're all being targeted with a frenzy of discounts and offers. Many in the form of shouty emails.

There's a lot to sift through, and it's overwhelming even knowing where to start.

But while most brands now participate in the massive sale event, there are some labels that we rarely see discounted. This is because their products are always in hot demand, regardless of price.

I've scanned all the deals to find the very best styles on sale — and I'm genuinely surprised to see these marked down.

If you want them, you'd better move quickly.

If you're going to splurge on a spendy t-shirt, this is your moment: Ena Pelly's cult logo tees have a place in every fashion girl's wardrobe. And they rarely come in under $100.

Lioness Bloom Long Sleeve Top, now $41.40.

I probably don't need to tell you how popular this striped top is; the viral style has sold out multiple times in all its colourways. Now you can grab it for a heavily discounted price — honestly, you may as well snag two!

Soleil Soleil Overswim Set, now $182

Soleil Soleil's chic overswim sets come in multiple prints, ready to take you directly from the beach to brunch. They usually retail for $260, so this is a decent offer for two gorgeous pieces you can wear multiple ways.

Assembly Label Vintage Straight Jean, now $85.

Take it from me, these really are the perfect straight-leg jeans, with just the right rigidity in the denim. They come in a few cool washes, but I love the mid-blue rinse on these.

Faithful the Brand Hedy Maxi Dress, now $210.

Earlier this year, Australian brand Faithful's Hedy dress made the list of the top 10 most searched for products globally — and drop-waist dresses have been trending ever since. If you love the style, you can now nab it at a discount. Christmas party dress, anyone?

Leelo Active Sculpt Flare Leggings, now $72.

Known as one of the best leggings on the market, Leelo Active's Sculpt Flare style are as comfortable and wearable as they look. The flared leg makes them ideal for days off from the gym, too.
