While December is the month of shopping for others, let November be a time to shop for yourself — and you can feel less guilty about having a “treat yourself” moment this month by picking up pieces on major markdown. You shouldn’t have trouble finding the deals with Black Friday sales already in full swing; however, if you're feeling overwhelmed with where to begin, let it be known that the highly anticipated Net-A-Porter sale is here, and it’s one you definitely won’t want to miss.

For some, Nov. 19 may have already been circled twice over on your calendar as the start to the Net-A-Porter sale. For those who haven’t experienced the fashion-crowd-favorite site during a major sale, here’s what you’re in for. All those contemporary and designer pieces you've been lusting after all season? Well, they can now be yours for up to 50 percent off.

The sale offerings are immense, with many pages of clothing (173 to be exact) and accessories to be filtered through. Before you start to stress about the volume of options to choose from, start by scooping up the more trend-forward styles that have been lingering in your cart. One such piece is the now Insta-famous rectangular bag from REJINA PYO, marked down from $715 to $357.50 in the sale. If you've been coveting this croc-effect tote, don't wait on making this purchase, as both the white and baby blue hues are sure to sell out at lightening speed.

Another style bound to go quickly is the GANNI Sabine slingback pump in snake-effect leather. Originally $280, you can now add this popular silhouette to your closet for $140. The comfortable kitten heel blends two trends of the season — snake print and lime green — making it a worthwhile buy during the sale.

Next, narrow in on investment pieces, such as the statement coats and bags you've been lusting after (but haven’t wanted to pay full price for). Right now you can score a statement coat from Roksanda for $962.50 (it was originally $1,925). The oversized, quilted style will pair well with everything from tailored work attire to weekend casual wear. Keep the coat closed for a more streamline look or let it hang loose so the printed yellow silk lining will really pop against neutrals to jewel tones.

With the holidays coming up, don’t expect pieces with more festive flair to stick around for long. A sale makes for the ideal time to shop statement sequin and metallic styles that are prime for parties. Now on sale for $597.50 (down from $1,195), a shimmering metallic skirt from Sies Marjan will provide for endless styling opportunities throughout the season. Match it up with a tailored blazer for cocktails or pop on chunky knit sweater and boots for girls night.

There are serious deals to be had right now from the aforementioned brands, as well as from designers such as Chloé, Marc Jacobs, and Prada (among others). Start filling your wardrobe with luxe styles that'll take you through the holidays into the new year — and, save some money for gift shopping while you’re at it.
