I Just Found the Most Luxe-Looking Basics From J.Crew, Gap, and Banana Republic, and They're All on Sale

Basics are the backbone of my wardrobe, and I rely on them at this time of the year—when it's cold and gray out and I'm not always inspired to assemble anything extraordinary. In fact, when I'm stuck in a style rut, it's not usually the trendy pieces that will break me out of it. More often than not, my wardrobe is built upon basics. Right now, my basics could do with a chic update, and while scrolling through the sales this week, I found a whole host of luxe-looking and elevated styles from J.Crew, Gap, and Banana Republic, three retailers known for their chic takes on the classics.
Below, I'm sharing my absolute favorite basics—from classic cashmere sweaters to crisp basic button-downs and staple straight-leg jeans—that are all on sale and worth getting your hands on before they sell out or go back to full price. Keep scrolling for price tags as low as $10.
J.Crew
A chic tank you can layer up now and wear alone with white pants come summer.
These straight-leg pants look just like the pair Kendall Jenner recently wore in Paris.
Gap
With spring on the horizon, you don't want to pass up on a chic new trench for under $135.
I'm obsessed with Gap's '90s Straight Jeans. I can't wait to get them in white.
Banana Republic
The type of relaxed sweater I'll be wearing all spring.
