This weekend in the United States we remember those who have paid the ultimate price for our freedom and security. Many also take Memorial Day weekend to tidy up burial plots and place fresh flowers on the graves of their loved ones, regardless of how they died. If you are remembering family members who have passed, my heart is with you. And I pray for you to have a weekend of quiet joy as you reflect on precious memories and cherish the time you had with your dear ones.
But we all know that long holiday weekends also provide ample sales and shopping opportunities. As we unofficially kick off the summer season, retailers are rolling back prices on new arrivals, offering additional savings on sale items and clearing out spring inventory to make way for more seasonal styles. I encourage you to shop smart if you’re browsing the offers this weekend. In fact, amidst the mayhem and hype, I’ve rounded up my favorite buys and I’m only sharing with you the Memorial Day Weekend sales that I truly think are worthy to consider. I’ll keep this post updated through Monday, May 25, so swing back by when you’re ready to shop. Consider this your Memorial Day Weekend Sales Headquarters for 2026.

Kay’s curated list of Memorial Day Weekend sales
ALICE + OLIVIA is offering an extra 25% off sale items, plus tons of new styles just added to markdown. This is their biggest and most popular sale of the year. I love their silk blouses, but I don’t see many in the sale. They have very unique, high quality items that are perfect for the once-in-a-lifetime vacation or cruise. Definitely worth checking out their offerings.
ANN TAYLOR – Get 40% off your entire purchase at Ann Taylor during their Start of Summer Event. May 21-22 you’ll also get an extra 15% off. And New Arrivals are included in the offer. I’ve collected some of my favorites in the shopping widget below and I also have a couple of style boards for inspiration. I especially like their Weekend Collection for those of us with a more casual or “retirement” lifestyle.
ATHLETA is offering 40% off shorts, tanks, dresses & swim during their long weekend sale. I gathered some of my favorites below.
AVARA – You’ll get up to 50% off almost everything at Avara this weekend through the 25th. These sandals are perfect for everyday and vacation. And this jean will look sharp all summer and into fall. I gathered up a few additional recommendations in the shopping widget below. I especially like that I was able to find so many pretty and cool tops that are the perfect length for wearing untucked and still getting nice proportions.
AWAY TRAVEL – I just completed another very successful trip with my Away luggage. It stands up to rough airport handling, pulling along cobble stone streets, heavy packing and time just beautifully. When traveling carry-on only I always take the Bigger Carry On Flex, which has a compression zipper and the most room possible. This hard shell suitcase with spinner wheels is 10% off this weekend. But you’ll find savings up to 25% off at Away through May 25. And remember, luggage makes a fantastic graduation gift for a college or high school grad.
BEEK – Enjoy up to 40% off at Beek + an extra 10% off sale items with code MEMORIAL10. My particular Beek Gallito Leather Slide Sandal is not included in the sale, but you can use KAY10 for 10% off any time.
BODEN – 25% off everything at Boden with code 3PPA at checkout. I have gathered some of my favorites for you to shop below. I love Boden for their superior quality, classic cuts with fun, modern prints and bold colors. They have beautiful dresses, but also styles for the whole family, including Baby Boden.
BOLL & BRANCH – Get 25% off the Memorial Day Exclusive Bundle OR 20% off custom bundles at Boll and Branch with code MDW20 at checkout during the Memorial Day Event. You will also receive a complimentary Beach Towel with any qualifying purchase! I absolutely LOVE my Boll & Branch linens, from my mattress topper to my sheets to my duvet covers and pillows. They’re always 100% organic cotton or linen, and they’re cool and soft to the touch.
CAKES Body is offering 30% off on bundles for a limited time! These work so well for inserting into workout bras, sleep bras or dresses with unique bra requirements. Use them over and over with proper care.
COLLEEN ROTHSCHILD – Buy more, save more during Colleen Rothschild’s Memorial Day Sale. Spend $100 and get $25 off; spend $200 and get $50 off; or spend $300 and get $100 off. Their skincare products are effective and gentle on the skin, but I especially enjoy using their hair care products.
CHICO’S – In their Summer Kickoff Event, Chico’s has select full-price styles starting at $29 through 05/28/2026. My no-iron linen shirt shown below is marked down, but you’ll also find many other styles to choose from. It looks like they’ll have additional deals throughout the weekend, too.
EILEEN FISHER – You’ll get a rare 30% off Sale items at Eileen Fisher just through May 26. These are wear-now styles, like this handkerchief linen shirt in airy blue. I generally size down to a small at EF.
ELEMIS is offering 25% off sitewide + a choice of a free gift during their Memorial Day Sale. If you spend $140 you will receive a 6-piece gift (worth $123) that includes some of my favorite Elemis products like the Pro-Collagen Cleansing Balm, and this Pro-Collagen Night Cream. I have also really enjoyed these facial pads that you might be interested in too. Use code MDW25 at checkout.
EVEREVE is now having their Clearance Sale with an additional 20% off clearance items. Sale prices are as marked. My favorite aqua utility jacket below is NOT on sale, but you’ll find many other similar items that you can wear now or later. I’ve gathered some favorites in the shopping widget below the photo.

J.MCLAUGHLIN is offering an extra 30% off sale styles. This doesn’t happen often, so if you’re looking for polished, colorful and well-made pieces for the summer, you might want to check out the offerings. My Daphne dress in jaquard (shown above) is 26% off PLUS an EXTRA 30% off. But these are all final sale. I wear a medium in this dress for a beautiful fit. I suggest using their size guides for the best fit.
LAND’S END is offering 50% off + an extra 10% off SITEWIDE with code GRAPEFRUIT at checkout for a limited time. Their swimwear is some of my favorite, but I also think this matching set is darling. So many ways to wear it (together or separate).
L’AGENCE – The Long Weekend Sale has arrived at L’AGENCE. Enjoy 25% off select styles & all sale now through 5/25. I love this silk blouse that is available in many beautiful colors. Shop the entire sale section here. This beautiful dress would work so nicely for a special occasion or vacation this summer. And this modern classic blazer is a smart investment piece you can dress up or down.

NORDSTROM is having their Half Yearly Sale with savings up to 50% off. Items sell out fast. I rounded up a few of my favorites in the shopping widget below.

And you almost always get FREE shipping and returns at Nordstrom.
PAIGE – 25% off SITEWIDE at Paige. If you are wanting new denim for summer, now is the time! My favorite ecru colored wide leg jeans are marked down. I usually size up to a 31 in these, so if you’re between sizes, consider going with your higher size.

Blessed for My Day
Lord, help us today not to live just for ourselves. Make us mindful and aware of those around us…their hurts and fears, their dreams and joys, their challenges and victories. Show each of us how we can best encourage and strengthen those closest to us. Make us sensitive to what burdens them and then show us how to help lift those burdens.
Now we who are strong ought to bear the weaknesses of those without strength and not just please ourselves. Each of us is to please his neighbor for his good, to his edification. ~ Romans 15:1-2
