All of the end of summer deals you need to know about right now

There's not a lot to love about the end of summer. The approach of Labor Day means shorter days, colder nights — and the threat of unpacking that puffy winter coat from the back of your closet.

But there's one reason to smile: As summer comes to a close, many retailers open their doors to major discounts and deals. Shoppers rejoice!

So whatever you are doing these last few weeks of the season, TODAY wants you to do it in style (and, of course, for a discount). Here are some of the best end of summer sales you can take advantage of right now, as well as TODAY Style's favorite item from each.

Nordstrom Anniversary Sale may have ended, but there are still many great deals to be had. Right now, they are taking 40 percent off new markdowns in women's shoes. We love these mustard slides from Topshop for $42. We all know white sneakers aren't going anywhere anytime soon, and now you can stock up on essentials for fall like ballet flats and booties.

We never need a reason to buy a new pair of shoes or a great bag, but Shopbop just gave us over 400 reasons in the form of an epic sale on the site now. Whether you're looking to score a pair of summer's hottest slides or stocking up on booties for the winter, you can find discounts of up to 75 percent. You can also get free two-day shipping and returns when using your Amazon Prime account. Meanwhile, we've only got eyes for their deeply-discounted bags!

Backcountry may not be as well known as the other brands mentioned, but that doesn't mean it's not just as good. Backcountry focuses on clothes and gear for the outdoorsman (think Patagonia, North Face, Marmot and Arc'teryx), but you may be surprised by its collection of Frye booties and Solid and Striped swimwear. Right now they are having asemiannual sale for 50 percent off!
