If you were in grade school at some point during the 2000s, then you likely remember the absolute chokehold Abercrombie & Fitch had on hallway fashion. I remember collecting their fur-lined parkas, lace-trimmed camis, lightweight Henley sweaters, and low-rise yoga pants like Pokémon cards-by the time I graduated high school, I must have amassed nearly 100 different Abercrombie sweatshirts, all varying only slightly in color and design.
Madewell has always been one of my favorite places to shop for pieces that feel both timeless yet trend-forward. So, when I spotted the brand's massive fall sale, with an extra 50 percent off sale styles using code " LONGWEEKEND," I knew my wallet was in trouble (in the best way). The discounts are too good to scroll past-think wide-leg jeans for just $30, tailored trousers marked down a whopping 83 percent, and more travel clothes that make packing for any fall trip a breeze.
