If I Had an Endless Budget, These 31 Saks Finds Would Be Mine in an Instant


There’s something wildly indulgent yet undeniably fun about letting yourself imagine a shopping spree with zero limits. Saks is one of those places where “just browsing” can turn into a full-on fantasy exercise, and I’ll admit I daydream about what I’d do with an endless budget there often. Between the racks of statement coats, showstopping dresses, and accessories that double as little works of art, it’s nearly impossible not to picture myself walking out with a fresh armful of treasures. Think of it as the equivalent of playing dress-up, only the pieces are the kind of luxury investments that make your pulse quicken.
If I were to truly lean into the fantasy, especially for a fall like the one we’re about to have, I’d start with a mix of timeless pieces and a few “wow” moments sprinkled in. My shopping list would begin with a pair of statement pumps that could single-handedly elevate even jeans and a tee, followed by a perfectly tailored trench coat that looks as though it was made just for me and a piece of jewelry that instantly feels like an heirloom. These are the kinds of items that make Saks such a destination—you know you’re looking at the best of the best, and the hardest part isn’t deciding what to take home; it’s narrowing it down at all. Below, find the 31 pieces at the top of my shopping list right now.
