I love Madewell. The popular clothing store sells trendy essentials that span seasons including shirts, shoes, and bags. Not to mention, they make the most comfortable jeans ever. If you love Madewell too, or are interested in trying out the brand, I have great news: Madewell is currently offering 40% off nearly everything with the code VERYRARE—a sale typically reserved for Black Friday.  

If you've been looking to purchase a new pair of jeans or shorts, or finally get Madewell's iconic bag that you've been eyeing for year, now is a great time to do so. To help you shop the sale with ease, we picked out some of the store's most popular items, plus a few things we personally own and love, that are on sale. Here are our top 10 picks from the Madewell sale to shop right now.

1. This trendy rainbow loungewear set

Currently, loungewear is the new workwear—and I'm obsessed with this rainbow cropped sweatshirt and sweatshorts combo that's on sale. It has a vintage 70s vibe that will make you look trendy as you work from home. Plus, it's made entirely of cotton, so you know it will be super soft.

2. Madewell's iconic tote bag

There are few bags as popular as Madewell's Transport Tote. It's large enough to fit everything, making it perfect for both work and travel. Plus, it has a classic look that will never go out of style. Not to mention, our Director of Shopping swears by her Madewell Transport Tote, along with nearly 1,000 reviewers on the retailer's website. Right now, you can get the bag in the craft blue color for 20% off.

3. High-quality bathing suits

Madewell offers an array of well-constructed bathing suits that will last through the summer—and they're all on sale. I own a Madewell bathing suit and absolutely love it. Right now, I'm eyeing this highly-rated underwire bikini set with has a cool, structured design. Reviewers love the retro vibe it brings and says that it fits well. Plus, it's made of recycled fabric, so you can feel good about your purchase, too. 

4. A super comfortable tee

Here at Reviewed, we love Madewell's v-neck t-shirts. Not only do they have hundreds of great reviews on Madewell's website (and thousands more on Nordstrom), but a couple of us on staff own the shirt in multiple colors. The tops look casual, are flattering, and will always be stylish. Whenever they're on sale, I always get a new t-shirt (or two).

5. Jeans

I love Madwell jeans. In fact, they're the only jeans I'll wear because they're comfortable, stretchy, and, most importantly, flattering. Madewell has a ton of jeans on sale that I'm adding to my cart ASAP. My favorite pair are the High-Rise Skinny Crop Jeans, which I tend to go a size down in because they're so stretchy. I also love the Classic Straight and Slim Boyjean for a more vintage vibe. Our Director of Shopping swears by Madewell's curvy/petite combo sizes, and is a huge fan of the Perfect Vintage jeans and any of the 10" and 11" high-rise skinny jeans.

6. Gold earrings

Madewell makes fantastic earrings. The gold pairs are simple while still making a statement and are made with 14k gold-plated sterling silver, so they don't hurt my ears after extended wear. The Chunky Medium Hoops are my favorite pair, but I'm also eyeing these cute little heart studs—both of which are currently on sale. 

7. Casual sneakers for home

In need of some casual walking shoes? Look no further than Madewell's Sidewalk Low-Top Sneakers. The trendy white sneakers have a 4.3-star rating from 43 people who claim that they're comfortable and a must-buy. These kicks are casual enough to go with pretty much everything and are ideal for quick strolls around the neighborhood.

8. Pajamas you'll want to live in

Pajamas are having a major moment right now. Long gone are the days you wore an old camp t-shirt and some comfy shorts. We're getting serious about our nighttime wear now—starting with a pair of stylish pjs. This ribbed knitted set comes highly-rated with reviewers stating that they strike the perfect balance of comfort and sophisticated (a.k.a. all you could ever ask for in pajamas).

9. Denim shorts

Madewell's denim shorts are just as good as their jeans, in my opinion. I own several pairs and find that they're just as comfortable and still breathable in the summer heat. My personal favorites are the High-Rise Denim Shorts, which come in a variety of washes and styles.

10. Leggings that are perfect for lounging

If you think Madewell jeans are comfortable, just wait until you try their leggings. Reviewers love them because they're oh-so-comfortable and aren't see through (something you do not want to worry about). While I wouldn't work out in these, they're great for lounging around. Plus, they're high-rise, so they keep everything nice and tight.
