I'm a Fashion Editor Who Shops at Free People—21 New Markdowns I Can't Stop Thinking About
Shopping for transitional pieces that work with you as the seasons change is no easy feat. As a shopping editor, when I'm on the hunt for winter-to-spring pieces, I look for layerability and versatility. One of my favorite places to shop for transition pieces is Free People. Its vast collection of chunky knits, playful pants, and lace-trim detailings feels flirty yet easily wearable. During this time of year, I default to the classic sweater-and-jeans outfit. It's chic and simple and always does the trick. Keeping my outfit repertoire in mind, I scrolled through Free People's new markdowns for affordable, chic finds that would look great with jeans, trousers, or a skirt.
Read on to see the editor-approved sale finds. Save up to 75% on faux-fur jackets, pull-on boots, baggy jeans, sweater sets, cozy cardigans, Levi's jeans, and so much more. Last spring, fashion people proved lace-trim detailing and boho-chic pieces were must-haves for looking stylish. I've got a feeling this year will be no different. So don't miss the many lacy finds, from '70-inspired dusters to sheer bloomer pants. Scroll on to shop 21 chic Free People new markdowns that have my full attention, and I added some gorgeous new arrivals at the end.
