I'm Being Serious—If You Skip This Madewell Sale, Don't Come Crying to Me
Though I'm all for a designer sale that houses all kinds of off-the-runway pieces in loud colors and voluminous silhouettes, there's something even more satisfying about one stocked full of reliable basics (with a few fun items sprinkled in for good measure) that you don't need a special occasion to wear. If you agree, I've got some news for you. That exact sale scenario is going on right now at Madewell.
Until midnight ET on Wednesday, January 17, when you use the code NEWYEAR at checkout, you can receive up to 70% off select styles. You can stock up on all of your favorite jeans, tees, jackets, sweaters, and more for a fraction of the cost you would be charged if you decided to wait another five days or so.
Scroll down to get all your basics shopping done for the year, courtesy of Madewell's limited-time sale event. If you're thinking of skipping it, don't—or at least don't come crying to me when you have to pay full price for all of your chic essentials.
