The birds are chirping, the sun is shining, and spring has finally arrived. As you stow away your puffer jackets and heavy sweaters for next year, you may be noticing some gaps in your wardrobe to propel you into spring and through summer, like a flouncy sundress, a breezy blouse, or a long skirt that’ll effortlessly dress up lightweight knits or a basic tee. 

Luckily, J.Crew has been low-key slashing prices on new arrivals, so I dug through over 1,500 deals and found the 9 best elevated spring staples, and they’re up 75 percent off. Below, shop my top picks from just $16.

Spring Fashion Deals at J.Crew

Ciel Top in Cotton Poplin

Consider the Ciel Top a modern twist on a spring button-down. Available in four color options, including blue, butter yellow, black, and crisp white, this lightweight, 100 percent cotton blouse easily transitions out of chillier days thanks to its wide, long sleeves and lower hem. The fit is loose and relaxed, with flattering details like a chic boat neckline and a removable tie waist. Just add your favorite jeans, kitten heels or flats, and minimal jewelry, and you’re set for work or play.

Gwyneth Slip Skirt

This ’90s-inspired slip skirt is a brand best seller, so it’s pretty rare to find it on sale for over half off. It features a comfortable elastic waistband and a smooth satin-finish fabrication that drapes elegantly to a mid-calf hem. This muted stone color option plays well for day or night, whether you team it with a simple tank or statement piece up top. 

Ribbed Cotton Button-Collar Sweater in Stripe

Nautical aesthetics are popular this season, and this cozy knit nails the sailor trend while still serving as a timeless staple. Its bold gold buttons bring just enough polish to work  for dressier settings like the office, which can be configured into a turtleneck for added warmth or be left undone for a flat, wide-spread collar. J.Crew shoppers noted that its knit fabrication isn’t as heavy as it looks and is an ideal lightweight knit to keep on rotation for spring and cool summer nights.  

Collection High-Rise Portia Pant in Tuxedo Wool

Need a new pair of trousers? This 100 percent wool, tuxedo-inspired pair is on sale for over $140 less and features a universally flattering straight-leg silhouette. The legs are fully lined, and the high-cut waistline has adjustable side tabs for a snug or slouchy fit. Keep in mind that shoppers say the pants wear a “bit baggy,” so size down for a slimmer fit.
