When it’s time to refresh my travel wardrobe, I always head straight to the sale sections of my favorite retailers. If you shop smartly, you can build a stylish, high-quality fashion collection without ever splurging, and one of my favorite brands to snag massive discounts from is J.Crew.
Right now, the brand is hosting a massive late summer sale, with travel clothes up to 82 percent off. I recently found myself enjoying a rare in-person shopping session at my local J.Crew, and I took note of the most gorgeous items. Now, I’m sharing the 12 best products that are worth buying, including linen pants, striped tees, fashionable sandals, and more, starting at just $14.
Best J.Crew Deals Overall
Soleil Linen Pant
J.Crew
I made a mistake by not snagging the yellow version of these linen pants when I found them in-store. They’re now almost completely sold out, but I’m not missing the opportunity to buy this pink version while I can. They’re a playful alternative to standard linen pants, and they’ll pair nicely with simple tanks and tees. The drawstring waist and relaxed fit ensure you’ll be comfortable all day long, and reviewers rave about their breathability.
Cabana Linen Top
J. Crew
I’ve been eyeing this linen top for months, and now that it’s marked down to just $36, I’m finally adding it to my cart. It’s made of 100 percent linen, meaning it’s airy enough for August’s hottest days—but thanks to its long sleeves, you won’t be shivering on cool nights. Plus, the V neckline adds a refined touch, so you can easily dress it up or down.
Colbie Buckle Sandals
J.Crew
J.Crew has mastered elevated shoes that are unique yet on-trend, and these slide sandals are the perfect example. They feature gold hardware and thin, cotton-linen straps that are far more refined than typical double-strap sandals. Plus, the molded footbed ensures you’ll be comfortable and pain-free all day long.
Classic Mariner Cloth Boatneck T-shirt
J.Crew
The Breton striped T-shirt is a foolproof wardrobe staple that you can wear anywhere in the world. It’s universally adored for its elevated appearance and versatility, and it looks great with jeans, linen shorts, and even a feminine skirt. This one is made of 100 percent cotton, so it’s breezy enough for the summer, although you can wear it into the colder months, too.
Airy Gauze Tiered Maxi Dress
J.Crew
If you don’t own a gauzy maxi dress, take this as a sign. This wardrobe essential is a whopping 82 percent off right now, and it’s perfect for the remaining sunny days of summer. The crinkled fabric will never look wrinkled or frumpy after being unpacked, making this the perfect travel dress. Plus, I love that it can easily be dressed up or down for any itinerary.
Textured Satin Stratus Pant
J.Crew
Satin pants are gaining popularity, and I’m obsessed with this colorful pair that’s marked down to under $50. They’re an ideal swap for linen pants, thanks to their comfortable elastic waistband, relaxed leg, and elevated look. Plus, since the satin fabric is slightly crinkled, they won’t look frumpy out of your suitcase.
Stretch Cotton-blend V-neck Top
J.Crew
I’m all about elevated basics, and this V-neck tank immediately caught my eye when I was shopping in-store. The cotton-blend fabric has a comfortable stretch and sleek appearance, and it’s super breathable, too. I’d pair this top with a statement necklace for a vacation-worthy look.
Edie Italian Leather Crossbody Bag
J.Crew
If I’m being honest, I’m not crazy about crossbody bags—but this leather option is a worthy exception. It has the look of a vintage bag, with a boxy shape, twist-lock closure, and gorgeous Italian leather. It’s large enough to hold your daily essentials, but compact enough to carry with ease throughout your travels. It will elevate any casual daytime outfit, and it’s dressy enough to be worn at night, too.
Denim Skort
J.Crew
This denim skort’s dark wash and gold hardware set it apart from less elevated versions. I love how it’s styled online, with a feminine white blouse, flat sandals, and a raffia tote that’s perfect for beach days. It’s simple, yet stylish, and it even has hidden pockets for small essentials.
Montauk Crochet Tank Top
J.Crew
Crochet is one of my favorite summer trends, and I love this timeless high-neck tank that you can wear for countless summers ahead. It can easily be dressed up or down for any occasion, and you can also snag the white or tan options that are just as versatile.
Brynn Leather Wedge Sandals
J.Crew
I couldn’t help but snag a pair of these leather sandals when they had my size in store. They have a slight wedge that feels slightly dressy, so I plan on wearing them in place of heels to nice summer dinners. One reviewer called them “comfortable even after hours of use,” making them ideal for events and elevated travel itineraries.
Malta Handwoven Straw Tote
J.Crew
No matter where in the world you’re located, you can channel the vibe of a Greek summer with a beach-ready straw tote. This one can fit towels, sunscreen, and your latest beach read, and it has an effortlessly stylish look. Plus, the long shoulder straps make it easy to carry throughout your beachside destination.
