Labor Day weekend isn't just about long-weekend BBQs—it’s the best time to refresh your jewelry box for a fraction of the original price. BaubleBar’s legendary Goodbye Summer Sale is officially live. From now through Tuesday, September 8th, hundreds of fan-favorite, best-selling pieces are marked down, with prices starting at just $10.
Whether you’re looking to snag last-chance summer pieces before they go into the vault or stock up on versatile gold essentials for your upcoming fall wardrobe, this 1-week-only event offers some of their deepest discounts of the year. I’ve sifted through the sale to find the pieces that actually hold up, layer well, and give you the best bang for your buck.

Why I Shop On Sale
Every fashionista knows that the best accessories and jewelry don't just fall into your lap: the best pieces come to those who wait... and, most importantly, to those who search! After years of building my capsule wardrobe, if there is one hard-and-fast shopping rule I swear by, it’s this: I never, ever pay full price for everyday jewelry and fun accessories.
The retail markup on fashion jewelry is notoriously steep. Depending on the season and the retailer, it can range anywhere from 300% to over 1,000% above the base cost of production. So, when a major sale cycle rolls around—like this massive Labor Day event—your patience quite literally pays off.
As a result, waiting for these deep markdowns allows me to stretch my styling budget so much further, enabling me to experiment with layering and stacking as much as I want without a shred of buyer's remorse. Plus, let's be honest, there is just nothing quite like the thrill of finally laying your hands on a perfectly curated piece that you love and have waited so long for.
What’s Actually Worth Buying in the BaubleBar Sale?
With new styles added specifically for this event, the sale section can feel overwhelming. Here are the top three categories you should target, along with the specific pieces I recommend adding to your cart before they sell out.
1. Waterproof & Everyday Gold Layers (Starting at $10)
If you hate taking off your jewelry before showering, hitting the gym, or heading to the beach, now is the time to stock up. BaubleBar’s tarnish-resistant pieces are getting massive price drops.
- Top Pick: The Mini Hera Necklace (Normally $48, Now $15)
- Why buy now: After testing their waterproof line for months, I can confirm these effortless gold chains and delicate pendants don't turn your neck green. They pair effortlessly with cozy fall knits and tailored blazers.

Saying goodbye to summer doesn't mean giving up color. BaubleBar’s signature colorful Pisa bracelets and seashell-inspired drop earrings are down to final-chance prices.
- Top Pick: The Custom Pisa Bracelet (Normally $30, Now $12)
- Style tip: Mix beaded stretch bracelets with minimalist gold cuffs for a high-low look that adds a pop of personality to everyday neutrals.
3. Easy-to-Layer Bracelet & Necklace Sets
Stacking your jewelry perfectly can be tricky and expensive. BaubleBar’s pre-curated layer sets take away the guesswork.
- Top Pick: The Gia Layered Necklace Set (Normally $58, Now $18)
- Why buy now: Buying these pre-stacked sets during the $10+ event gets you three high-quality chains for less than the price of a single full-price item.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
- Is BaubleBar jewelry actually waterproof?
Yes, BaubleBar's specific "Waterproof" collection is made from 18K gold-plated stainless steel. In my experience, they hold up incredibly well to daily showers and sweat without tarnishing. However, standard brass pieces from their fashion line should be kept away from water.
- Can I return BaubleBar sale items?
Typically, items marked down during major events like the Goodbye Summer Sale are considered Final Sale if they are discounted past a certain threshold. Always check the specific product page before checking out.
Don't Wait—The Sale Ends Tuesday, September 8th! Styles are selling out rapidly, and once these last-chance summer favorites are gone, they won't be restocked.

Final Thoughts: How I Shop the Sale (Without the Buyer's Remorse)...
Curious how to get the most out of a sale? Whenever a massive sale drops, my very first rule is to never shop blindly. I always start by evaluating my closet and creating a list of items and trendy accessories I need to add. This helps me avoid impulse buys just because the price is nice. Then, I start browsing and loading my cart with every single item I like.
The rule here is to shop for high-quality and versatile pieces. After this, I review all my finds once again, comparing their size and color with my wishlist, and removing anything that might not be the perfect fit. This way, my cart is ready before the event even goes live, and I can check out the minute the discounts hit.
I also use these deep markdowns to get a massive head start on my holiday gifting, stashing away viral, beautifully packaged items for my friends and family months in advance. Finally, if there is a piece I truly love, I never hesitate; debating over a $10 steal almost always guarantees it will sell out before I make up my mind!
