The monotony of winter dressing, paired with the frustration I feel every time I cover a cute outfit with an oversized sweater or jacket is starting to wear on me. I’ve successfully pushed off spring shopping — something I’ve admittedly been itching to do since January — but with Presidents Day sales officially here, I finally found the perfect excuse to start. My favorite brand just launched a double-discount sale — what, you want me to not take advantage of it?

Right now at Madewell, the brand’s entire sale section is an extra 30 percent off with the code EXTRAEXTRA. And while it’s predictably filled with winter staples, I also discovered that there are a number of pieces perfect for transitioning into spring, including slip skirts, floral-print dresses, lightweight, billowy trousers, and, of course, denim. As a former employee-turned-obsessee, I immediately put together a cart of wardrobe staples from the sale-on-sale, and prices start at just $20.

The Harlow Wide-Leg Pant

This is me — aka someone who owns Madewell’s Harlow Wide-Leg Pants and wears them, at minimum, once a week — urging you to grab the best-selling trousers while they’re 63 percent off. The style is flattering, lightweight, easy to dress up and down, and available in 11 shades — eight of which are on sale. Plus, they’re a favorite among shoppers, one of which called them “a tailored, classic, wide-legged dream.” “They provide comfort without overwhelming the frame…[and] nip in the waist beautifully,” they added, deeming the style “unquestionably flattering.” And per another customer, the trousers give you a “perfectly snacheted, high waist,” adding that the “gorgeous drape” of the pleats flatters their “curvy” figure.

Angled-Neck Long-Sleeve Top

As you transition your wardrobe from winter to spring, a lightweight long-sleeve top is a must, and I’m personally loving this updated take on the classic style. According to shoppers, the top’s square, angled neckline “makes this must-need basic more elevated.” Like your favorite tee, customers note that “you can style this with jeans for a casual look,” but thanks to that unique neckline, you can just as easily “dress it up with a skirt.” And while untraditional cuts can be finicky when it comes to what bra to wear underneath, fans note that this hides their straps perfectly.

Denim Popover Mini Shirtdress

TBH, I plan to live in the brand’s Denim Popover Mini Shirtdress through the end of spring, styling it with knee-high boots and tights now and simple, chic loafers when the weather starts to warm up. “Everything about this is perfect: fabric, color, and style,” gushed one fan who loves the versatility of the dress, adding that it’s “something that can be worn any season, both dressy and casual.” “You can wear it everywhere,” said another shopper, while someone else noted that the denim is “soft and comfortable to wear,” despite not having a ton of stretch.

The Puff Crossbody Bag

One of the best deals from the sale-on-sale is on this woven leather crossbody bag, now 67 percent off in the shade Chocolate Raisin, which one person described as “a lovely dark brown with a hint of plum.” According to that fan, the size of the bag is perfect, writing that it works as an everyday purse but is small enough to be “tucked in one of Madewell’s totes for traveling.” “[It’s a] great size for everyday use,” said another customer, explaining that it “fits a small wallet, sunglasses, and a few extras.” Plus, they added, the woven style is “unique but [still] pretty much goes with everything.”

Madewell’s double-discount sale finally gave me a reason to start my spring shopping. Find more deals on shopper-loved closet staples, below.
