How is it already Labor Day Weekend?! I swear, as I get older, each year seems to fly by faster and faster. Gone are the days when a week seemed like an eternity just to get to the dance on Saturday night. I need to focus more attention on appreciating every day as its own experience. I think finding appreciation in as many things as possible can help time slow down a bit. Each day brings its own unique challenges and rewards. I have to get better at recognizing them as each day progresses. But I digress…
I wasn’t going to put up a Weekend Reading Post this week. I haven’t written in a minute (I do have three posts coming next week!). But I realized I had a good stash of interesting articles to share, and there a quite a few fantastic Labor Day sales going on that I wanted to clue everyone into as well. So with all that in mind, let’s get started.
Sales
Brooks Brothers is running a suit clearance. This is the time to grab a great suit for an outstanding price. My two personal favorites are this two-piece and this three-piece.
West Coast Shaving is offering 12% off all Merkur and Dovo products (no code needed). You can also get a free sample pack of their new shave soaps when you spend over $50 and use the code EARLYGIFT. I may have to grab a new open comb razor.
T.M. Lewin is discounting 20% of everything with the code LABOR20. Make sure you check out this Italian wool jacket.
Allen Edmonds is featuring a sale on their woven loafers and boat shoes. Now is the time to grab a pair like these for next summer!
