The Gap’s New Sale Is Epic—Here’s What a Fashion Editor Is Buying

As an editor in New York City, the best thing about spring cleaning isn’t just freeing up space in my tiny closet; it’s also the opportunity to replenish worn-out items I know I’ll actually wear all season long. Coincidentally, I timed this year’s closet purge to align with The Gap’s ongoing spring sale. Take up to 60% off your purchase using a combination of markdowns and promo codes (try entering MORESALE at checkout to see your total savings). There’s never been a better time to stock up on seasonal essentials.Although my personal style favors highly tailored mix-and-match pieces like button-downs, basic tees, and dark-wash denim, I’ve always viewed The Gap as an affordable place to try out new trends. Whether that’s a punchy pop of color, a fluttery sleeve, or wide-leg jeans that may or may not end up being my style, I know I won’t regret my purchase with these prices.With that in mind, I’ve pulled together 28 spring pieces from The Gap’s current sale, including a bevy of basics and some trendier items I’m too intrigued not to try. So keep scrolling and see what piques your interest. But remember, these styles won’t last long, so add them to your cart and check out ASAP!The Gap is always my first stop when I’m looking to try out a new style of jeans. These high-waisted denim trousers are definitely on my list. If you’ve noticed this romantic style at more expensive places, here’s your chance to take it for a spin at a more affordable price. I have several denim jackets, but none have puffed sleeves…yet. A simple shacket in a neutral color is perfect for spring.It can be difficult to find a baseball hat that’s affordable and free of logos, so I love this piece.

The split hem and flared sleeves make it a bit special. The Gap’s cropped tees have truly the perfect fit.This one is crazy sexy cool, right? Right. I’ve slowly realized that a sleek bodysuit is a wardrobe essential, so I’ll be buying this version in two colors. I absolutely do not need another sweatshirt, but the soft fabric on this Vintage Hoodie is too good to pass up. I own several of these linen button-down shirts already, but always buy more when they’re on sale. At this price, the quality is unbeatable. It’s impossible to wear jeans every day once June arrives, so I’m taking this opportunity to stock up on breathable linen pants that will last me until fall.Keep this swimsuit in your carry-on for last-minute escapes. While I’ve never met a button-down I didn’t like, I may actually really need this cropped style. I just got rid of so many worn-out pairs of jeans.
