Welcome to this week's best sale finds from across the web. As a shopping editor, it's my job to scout the best deals from around the internet that meet your budget and suit your style. Every Friday, I share the can't-miss deals I found so that you, too, can be an expert shopper.

I know I'm not the only one knee-deep in preparing their summer travel capsule wardrobe. I have a bachelorette party in a few weeks (plus a trip to the beach planned), so I've been hunting for vacation essentials like summer dresses, comfortable sandals, and a few new bikinis to freshen up my collection. I can't forget trendy summer accessories to tie my vacation outfits together. My search was fruitful as I found on-sale picks from brands like Ray-Ban, St. Agni, J.Crew, Ganni, and more below.
