My travel wardrobe is largely an ode to Madewellâa rotating selection of cherished staple pieces that have accompanied me to over 35 countries in the past three years. I never miss a chance to stock up on the brandâs chic and cozy travel apparel and accessories when they go on sale, which is why Iâve already combed through Madewellâs epic early Black Friday sale to find the 32 best deals, starting at just $6.
Right now, the brand is having its biggest sale of the year, with jaw-dropping discounts of up to 76 percentâincluding an additional 40 percent off all (yes, all) sale items with the code âSALEONSALE,â which slashes prices on everything from vintage-inspired T-shirts and top-tier denim to soft merino wool layers and leather goods to the point that itâs almost a crime not to spring for more than one color of your favorites.

Flared Sleeve Cardigan
Madewell
This crewneck cardigan is one of the most timeless and versatile pieces on this list, with subtle ribbing and flared sleeves that add a bit of volume to the otherwise figure-skimming sweater. I love that you can wear it buttoned up or open for two completely different looksâand while itâs not technically reversible, Iâd wager you could even wear it backwards to switch up the style once more.
Ribbed V-neck Cardigan
Madewell
Two words: big buttons. Theyâre made of pearly shells and are so darling! This wide ribbed sweater is crafted from a warm and naturally breathable merino wool blend thatâs enhanced with silk for added softness. Right now, itâs $70 off, meaning you can get two colors on sale for less than the original price of oneâIâm eyeing the ivory and the molasses shade.
Best Womenâs Travel Pant Deals
Madewell
Madewell is largely famous for their high-quality and affordable denim, and luckily, there are dozens of best-selling styles on sale right now starting at just $30. I narrowed down the best deals on everything from convenient cargo pants to high-rise trousers, with savings of nearly $100 off some items. Below, youâll find pants that blend comfort and style, including a drawstring pair that would be perfect for avoiding any too-tight waistbands at Thanksgiving dinner.Â
High-rise Bootcut Trouser
Madewell
Sleek and stylish, these high-rise trousers are versatile enough to dress up or downâIâd pair them with black heeled boots and a cashmere sweater, or a silky tank top and heels for a night out. Shoppers rave about the flattering fit of these trousers, with one writing, âSeriously, buy these in every color before they sell out.â The wool and polyester blend is stretchy and soft, while two pockets make it easy to keep your belongings in easy reach.
Curvy Kick Out Crop Jean
Madewell
These might be the single best deal Iâve found so far. My fellow petite travelers, Iâd suggest adding the Curvy Kick Out Crop Jeans to your cart like, yesterday. These cropped mid-rise jeans boast premium stretch and still retain their shape fabulously over time, and are specifically designed to flatter an hourglass shape thanks to the contoured waistband, plus extra room at the hips and thighs. Theyâre also equipped with Madewellâs signature Magic Pockets, which are slightly compressive for a smoother silhouette. Best of all, these are nearly $100 off.
Best Womenâs Dress and Skirt Deals
Madewell
Iâve been a fan of Madewellâs dresses and skirts for over 15 years, and have long been impressed by how well they hold up over time. With prices slashed to just $57, Iâm eyeing elevated essentials like the Merino Wool-blend Maxi Skirt in this seasonâs trendiest shade, as well as travel-friendly picks like the sporty Drawstring Midi Skirt, which is currently discounted more than 50 percent. These flirty, feminine styles are perfect for everyday wear and more formal outings as well, whether youâre hitting a holiday party or touring a European museum.Â
Drawstring Midi Skirt
Madewell
I love a drawstring waist, which makes it easy to find your perfect fit both before and after a hearty Thanksgiving meal. This sporty-inspired midi skirt is made from a soft crepe fabric thatâs fitted without feeling constrictingâitâs ideal for travel days when you want to switch it up from pants, as the material is a breeze to move around in and looks plenty polished if you decide to cover the drawstring with a sweater.
Ruched Midi Shirt Dress
Madewell
Shirt dresses are a closet staple for good reason, and the pattern on this one is both trendy for the season and understated enough that it wonât go out of style by next year. Better yet, it helps to disguise any wrinkles once youâve arrived at your destination. The ruching around the waist provides a flattering silhouette that would be right at home at the office or for dinner out with friends, and itâs currently on sale for almost $90 off.
Best Bags and Accessories Deals
Madewell
Whether youâre shopping for yourself or getting a head start on holiday gifting, Madewellâs selection of gold jewelry, leather goods, and travel-friendly bags is a great place to startâespecially now that theyâre on sale starting at just $6. I love the preppy Knotted Covered Headband for a simple, easy-to-pack accessory, and you can never go wrong with a feminine statement belt like the Chunky Metal Statement Belt, now marked down to $30 from the original $78.
Demi-fine Chunky Small Hoop Earrings
Madewell
Not only do these dainty hoops look elegant, but theyâre also made from recycled factory scrap metals, so you can feel as good about wearing them as you look. Theyâre crafted from 14-karat gold over sterling silver, and add a subtle, sophisticated touch to any outfit. I love that theyâre small enough to wear during the day, but eye-catching enough to still feel special for evening wear. Now that theyâre marked down to $47, I might just buy a matching pair for my BFF, too.
