Back to back sales at a store I hadn’t shopped at since I was in high school – what is this blog becoming?!

GAP’s Friends & Family sale just started this week. That means through Sunday (11/5), you’re free to take 40% off of anything in the store. And, that includes GAP Factory! I feel like 90% of GAP sales exclude clearance, or GAP Factory, or denim, etc… This time, they’re making a special point to say: yes, everything.

Oh – did I mention that all orders ship free?

All you need is one simple code: FRIEND

And, and, and… In-store purchases are actually 50% off instead of 40%. GAP clearly wants you to shop there this weekend, and if I were you, I’d comply. The last thing we need is a grumpy GAP.

Don’t forget, you get 6% cash back at GAP and GAP Factory using Ebates! Plus, right now Ebates will give you $10 after your first purchase if you use my referral link. Seriously, they’ll deposit it right into your account! Saw it with my own eyes!

Remember when GAP commercials blew everyone’s minds with swing music and khakis? Nearly 20 years later and they’re still a leader in classic, everyday staples… and their commercials are just as mesmerizing as ever. If you watch Pluto TV, you’ve undoubtedly seen the artsy-sportsy “Skate Meet Horn” commercial with those badass chicks on skateboards and Christian Scott on the trumpet:

Alright, enough yackin’, here are my top picks from the GAP Friends & Family Sale! It ends tomorrow, so grab a cup of coffee and spend your Sunday morning picking out boring clothes that you’ll have and wear regularly for the next 10 years! (Just kidding about the boring part. You’ll see what I mean in 3… 2… 1…)

GAP Friends & Family Sale: Best Picks

GAP Icon Metallic Ombre Denim Jacket
$89.95 $53.97

Isn’t this the coolest f@#king jacket? To truly get the full impression of its metallic glory, you need to see the live-action product photo on the GAP website. It looks cool and distressed when you’re out of the light, but as soon as that light comes, it’s smooth, metallic, molten denim. I’ve never seen anything quite like it. It’s too cool to miss!

GAP Mid-Rise Deconstructed Skinny Jeans
$99 $59.40

Please don’t adjust your monitor, everything you’re seeing here is real. These are distressed skinny jeans with holes that make it look like your entire body is covered in gold leaf. On top of the fact that this skinny, ankle-length style is one of the easiest silhouettes to wear, this gold crap makes it so these are easy to wear to every holiday party I ever have to go to. Goodbye, formalwear! Hello, formal jeans.

GAP Faux Fur Bomber Jacket
$128 $76.80

This is not going to help my “Lindsay only buys green jackets” problem. But what can I say? I definitely don’t have one that’s lined with baby pink faux fur, so that has to count for something, right? Besides, this jacket is obviously function over form – look at that sleeve pocket! Is that a pen holder? I hardly noticed it was fashionable at all.

GAP Velvet Longline Bralette
$29.50 $17.70

My love for affordable bralettes is still going strong, and to have a little chunk of velvet in my lingerie drawer would be a delight. Mostly, I love the idea of using this bralette as a layering piece under a rugged flannel shirt or beneath a boxy lace top.

GAP Chest-Stripe Crewneck Sweater
$49.95 $29.97

This sweater is giving me flashbacks of being 14. I distinctly remember walking around Alderwood Mall aimlessly and wearing a nearly-identical sweater. Specifically, I remember making sure the sleeves were long enough to pull over the back of my hands because, well, 14. Do I want to go back in time? Hell no, but this sweater has aged incredibly well.

Go find your own favorites and shop the GAP Friends & Family Sale before it ends tonight!

 

Probably watching Netflix.
