'The 13 items I'm eyeing off in the Boxing Day sales as a lifestyle editor.'

December 25, 2024

Maybe Santa has been good to you this year, but there's also a strong chance you've ended up with some regifted soap and a diary you absolutely won't use.

Like, it's better than coal, but it's not exactly what you'd gift yourself… right?

If you need to take matters into your own hands, don't feel guilty. It's been a weird year, and we all deserve a little treat.

Watch: We try the Style Maths method with Alex's wardrobe. Post continues below.

With Boxing Day finally arriving, now is a good time to revisit those finds you've had your eye on this year and check if they're on sale. Many retailers have already been offering early bird access to their markdowns, while others have shared previews of the deals to come.

On my wishlist are a few key wardrobe staples and accessories that'll see me through the first half of 2025, and some household items that'll give my space a much-needed refresh. Now I've just gotta get around to the closet clean-out I've been planning since last January…

Here are the 13 items I'm keen to snap up in the Boxing Day sales.

If you've been thinking about getting yourself some coloured sneakers all year, you might want to check out the Adidas site right now — they're already offering 40 per cent off some of their most popular styles. I'm obsessed with the retro vibe of these blue suede Spezials.

Mimco The 2004 Mini Hobo Bag, was $299.95 now $179.

Mimco has really come through with the goods on this one — how fresh is the utility shape and sleek gold hardware against that washed khaki shade? This might just be the ultimate cool mum day bag.

Wrangler Repair Mini Skirt, was $99.95 now $74.96.

I've been on the hunt for a denim miniskirt to go with all my basic tees and jumpers, but until now I hadn't found the perfect cut-off style. Wrangler does the classics so well.

Crocs Classic Clog, was $79.99 now $59.99.

I've worn my Crocs to death this year, and they're still going strong — so this is more of a PSA to anyone who's not on board yet. They're surprisingly wearable, sooo comfy and this cream shade goes with everything. Grab them while they're going cheap!

Poppy Lissiman Marteeni in Torti, was $145 now $120.

When I need a new pair of statement sunnies, I always check out Poppy Lissiman. The "Marteeni" is my pick for summer because the combo of that squoval shape and tortoiseshell print is so damn cool.

Tony Bianco Ives, was $129.95 now $103.96.

In case you missed the memo, minimal thongs are the chicest style to get into this season. They're a great option to compliment a maxidress or elevate a comfy shorts-set, and I like how these have a thicker strap and slight platform.
