Stop What You’re Doing—I Built You the Perfect Spring Capsule Wardrobe at Gap
24 elevated basics I'm shopping now.


If my TikTok For You Page has taught me anything, it's this: everyone is obsessed with Gap right now. To prove my point, I scrolled through its current sale section to curate the perfect (and most affordable) spring capsule wardrobe you should shop now that the new season is officially here.
Here's what you need to know: Gap is offering up to 60 percent off hundreds of items, including just-dropped spring fashion essentials. Think: linen pants, lightweight sweaters, staple denim, spring dresses, T-shirts, and plenty of tank tops. To save you the trouble of scrolling—and because I'm shopping the sale myself—I rounded up the chicest discounted finds in each category. Plus, every single one of my favorite finds retails for less than $100.
So, keep scrolling to stock up on the best spring picks from Gap. If any basics in your wardrobe could use a new season refresh, my edit will have you covered.
I like to refresh my white T-shirts at the start of every season so that they stay fresh—this is the one I'm eyeing for its elevated feel and longer sleeves.
Spring is denim skirt season in my book. Make sure your closet is prepared with a fresh pick.
White jeans are a must-have in the spring. I especially love this pair for its ankle-grazing hem, meaning you get to show off a cute pair of ballet flats or sandals.
Take after our editors and wear this summery white skirt with a black top for an easy yet chic outfit all season long.
There's about a million and one different ways to wear a button-down shirt, which is why it's one of the most worn pieces in my wardrobe.
The bubble skirt may have been a major trend last summer, but I see this piece as a base for so many spring 2025 outfits.
Sure, you can wear a basic white T-shirt—or you can opt for this knitted tee in one of spring's trendiest colors.
This pair of jeans hits on so many spring denim trends at once—they're high-waisted, wide-legged, and have a polished dark wash.
The coolest fashion girls I know are wearing V-neck sweaters like this in their preppy outfits, so naturally I want to add one to my rotation.
This little black dress may have a simple silhouette, but that means you can style it ant way you want.
A denim jacket is the quintessential spring pick—opt for this under-$50 find for an edgier take on the classic piece.
