I'm Elevating My Spring and Summer Outfits With These 20 Madewell Sale Finds

Given that spring is in full bloom, and summer isn’t far behind, I’m guessing you’ve got a wedding or two to attend sometime soon. Slip into Madewell’s Ariana Midi Dress, which features a stunning floral pattern and a flattering silhouette.

Have you heard the latest fashion news? Canadian tuxedos are officially back. Yes, that’s right: the denim-on-denim trend that once ruled the early aughts has returned. Style Madewell’s button-front jacket with a pair of straight-leg jeans to master the look.

It’s about that time for a trip to the shore. Allow me to introduce you to this cutout swimsuit: it comes in a beautiful shade of sage green, and it’s crafted with a skin-baring design that stands apart from other typical one-pieces. If you want it, act quickly, because this one is selling fast!

The secret to building a reliable collection of spring work outfits: effortless staples. Look no further than this crew neck bodysuit that you can cycle through your workwear wardrobe with ease. Pair this top with tailored trousers and strappy sandals. And of course, don’t forget to sling your work bag over your shoulder.

This bag is called “The Essential” for a reason. With a sumptuous leather exterior and subtle gold detailing, Madewell’s crossbody mini bag exudes a quiet luxury vibe that will embellish any look, any time. Plus, it’s just the right size for all your belongings (including your phone, keys, and wallet).

For those hot summer days, you’ll need a lightweight white tank that will keep you nice and cool. Madewell’s striped cardigan top fits the bill, and it’s designed with buttons along the front so you can choose to unfasten the bottom (or top) half for an airy feel.

Madewell’s Kaitlin Sandals are offered in four beautiful colorways, but I’m partial to the ecru hue. It’s a perfect light shade that will work well with my spring and summer color palette (neutrals and pastels). Not to mention, with a wide leather strap and a short block heel, these sandals will provide extra comfort.

I can envision myself wearing this gorgeous gray slip to the office with a blouse and a blazer, and when the evening rolls around, I’lll swap the top half of my outfit for a cute tube top before heading out to grab drinks with friends.

Madewell’s short-sleeve top puts a chic spin on the classic white T-shirt. Look closely and you’ll notice pleated fabric around the waist, dainty buttons along the front, and a slightly flared shape above the hem. Team this top with a pair of white linen shorts for a monochromatic look.

No warm-weather wardrobe is complete without white denim shorts. And this pair from Madewell is extra special because it was designed with comfort in mind. Thanks to the soft denim fabric and slouchy structure, you’ll find that these shorts will be easy to move around in.

Here at Marie Claire, we can’t stop talking about butter yellow! It’s one of the top color trends of spring, and we’re forecasting that it will make its way into summer too. Play into the look with a long-sleeve shirt made with a super soft blend of cotton.

My go-to cover-up outfit? An oversized button-down shirt layered over a cute bikini. Madewell’s poplin top immediately caught my attention because I love the bold contrast effect created by the blue and white stripes. I can’t wait to wear this look while I lounge by the pool with my favorite book in hand.

This is not a drill: Madewell’s best-selling Harlow pants are officially on sale. In the last seven days, 553 Madewell fans have added these pants to their online shopping carts, and I’m right there with them. These trousers have developed a cult following: they’re made of extra soft lyocell and linen, they have a trendy wide-leg shape, and they’re undeniably versatile.

You can’t have a conversation about the top denim trends of the season without mentioning baggy jeans. During the Spring 2024 Fashion Week circuit, Marie Claire noticed that several designers sent roomy denim pants down the runway—including Valentino, Stella McCartney, and Ganni, to name a few.

If you struggle to come up with presentable going-out outfits, you’re not alone. I’ve made it my mission to find simple pieces that will make my life easier, and I’m starting with this peek-a-boo cardigan from Madewell. I plan to pair this look with a leather mini skirt and sleek black heels.

A busy day of running around calls for a crossbody bag that will allow you to operate completely hands-free. If you’ve got an endless to-do list of errands, but you still want to look chic while out and about, choose this luxe leather bag. The purse features a magnetic closure, so you won’t have to worry about losing any of your essentials while you’re on the go.

Looking to freshen up your blazer collection? Try experimenting with patterns. This double-breasted blazer boasts a subtle plaid print that will add dimension to your look. As for how to style this piece, take notes from the model pictured and wear a fitted white T-shirt and tan straight-leg pants.

Talk about a staple that belongs in your capsule wardrobe. It doesn’t get much more versatile than a straightforward black tank (i.e. an easy, breezy top that you’ll practically wear every day). Madewell’s version features wide straps, a snug fit, and a bodysuit design that will accentuate your figure.

You can never have too many white dresses. For casual activities like a picnic in the park or a leisurely stroll on the beach, opt for a relaxed shirt dress and complete your look with comfortable sandals, chic shades, and a beach tote to match.

In addition to chunky sandals and chunky sneakers, chunky loafers are having a moment this season. It seems as though the fashion crowd can't get enough of statement-making footwear. If you’re curious about the trend, but you're not willing to go full-on bold yet, try Madewell’s Bradley loafers which feature a thick sole that has more of a subtle feel.
