Best Winter Sales | December 2012

If the presents under the tree didn't deliver exactly what you were hoping for, don't fret. Santa's loss really is your gain: it gives you the perfect excuse to go shopping for yourself. Well, there's no better time to do just that than upon the arrival of Shopbop's fortuitous end-of-season sale. The designer-stocked shelves of this online merchant are ripe for the picking, with deep discounts on cool-girl leather (from the likes of Phillip Lim), essential Winter boots, and ladylike handbags. Consider this our little gift to you. Just click on for 16 of our picks, and then head over to Shopbop to shop it all for yourself. And don't be fooled; these end-of-season offerings are likely to look just as good next season, too.
