Gap, Free People, and Madewell Are All Having Sales—These Are the Pieces Worth Buying

If you’re in the mood to do a little sales shopping this week, there are plenty of options. Gap is offering 50% off select styles, Free People has an extra 25% off its sale section, and Madewell is doing 40% off sale items.

When I’m shopping sales, I try to focus on the kinds of basics I know I’ll actually wear the most—pieces that mix and match and work year-round. Staples like that make the foundation of a capsule wardrobe, regardless of your personal style—which always makes getting dressed so easy.

Right now, I’m especially leaning into those transitional pieces you can wear season to season—especially since we’re in that liminal period where summer’s almost over (sorry), but fall hasn’t started yet.

Keep scrolling for a mix of tank tops, button-ups, bikinis, skirts, sets, and even a few things for colder weather.
