J.Crew's Early Summer Sale Includes Dresses and Swimsuits From $20

It’s been an unusually warm spring on the East Coast, so naturally, I’m already in summer shopping mode. Luckily for all of us, J.Crew is offering up some major deals on next season’s hottest styles—up to 88 percent off.

The Gemma ruched bandeau one-piece is one of the most flattering swimsuits I've tried. Shortly after welcoming my second child, I purchased a gingham version of the timeless cut, and it was the only bathing suit I felt confident in. Right now, it’s 50 percent off in select colors; pair it with some airy gauze beach pants, another summer staple on major sale, and you’ve got a solid beach look.

I am a sucker for shelf-bra tanks, especially in the summer when bras just feel scratchy, and J.Crew makes some of the best. I’m ordering this vintage rib shelf bra tank top in every color (white, heather gray, and black) while it's $20. And if you're on the hunt for a Birkenstock alternative sandal, the elevated New Colbie buckle sandals are just $100 right now.

The last item on my shopping list is the seamless denim mini dress. I had my eye on a similar style last summer but failed to pull the trigger—now it's half off and under $85.
