Abby Hepworth for PureWow

If you’re anything like me, you’ve been plenty busy this week, scouring through the best Black Friday deals your favorite brands like Shopbop and Nordstrom have to offer. And not to add to your plate or anything, but there’s one sale in particular that you’re simply not going to want to miss: the J.Crew Black Friday sale. J.Crew has long been my go-to destination for classic seasonal finds, coats, boots, sweaters, luxe swimwear and all things plaid, and lucky us, so many must-have pieces are up to 50 percent off now through Dec. 2 (there are a handful of exceptions, but they are few and far between). To say I’m excited to truly an understatement.

To make your shopping experience a breeze, I spent hours curating a list of the best finds to buy now, from the best-selling Daphne wool coat (was $298, now $130) to the highly-giftable Cashmere Wrap (was $198, now $110). Below, 20 PureWow-approved J.Crew pieces to shop during the brand’s epic Black Friday 2024 sale.

This gorgeous rollneck sweater comes in tons of chic colors—including charcoal gray and beige—but I can’t help but go gaga for this vibrant red hue. As one reviewer raves, “It is very soft, warm and well made. It is not too boxy, and I like the more cropped fit.” And the cable knit design gives it a classic vibe that will never go out of style.

“I recently discovered the only gloves I own are sport gloves for running in the cold, so I think it’s high time I upgrade to something much more chic,” says PureWow Fashion Editor Abby Hepworth. “These cashmere gloves are simple but elegant, and I appreciate that the pointer finger and thumb can work on touch screens.” They also come in six stunning neutral hues, so there’s bound to be a pair (or three) to match your favorite winter coat.

J.Crew’s Tissue tees have developed something of a cult following, but none are nearly as popular as the turtleneck. Hepworth admits she already owns four but is seriously eyeing more, especially now that they’re 50 percent off for Black Friday. “The material is just so lightweight and soft,” she explains. “They make for the ideal layering top under sweaters or dresses or anything without adding any bulk.”

“I’m so into the new Fair Isle sweater trend, and loving how J.Crew has taken this classic knit design and refreshed it with cropped shapes and cool colors,” says Senior Editor Dana Dickey. “This iteration is a wool blend that’s non-itchy and the wide neck is never going to give me that choking turtleneck feeling.” Choose from one of three fun colors, all currently 41 percent off.

Introducing your new favorite heeled booties. The 2.25-inch heel is reportedly surprisingly comfortable, and that pointed toe is oh-so chic, but still has enough room so your toes won’t feel totally squished. And now that they’re 50 percent off, you could absolutely add multiple colors—black, chocolate or caramel—to your shopping cart to really maximize your winter wardrobe chicness.

This PureWow reader-favorite is a great winter accessory. It even doubles as a travel essential and can be used as a warm throw or as a neck cushion when on a long flight or train ride. It’s oversized enough to drape over your shoulders or around your neck as a scarf, and is made from 100 percent cashmere that’s certified by the Good Cashmere Standard, so you can bet it’s plush and warm as heck. Plus, it’s monogrammable and available in 12 colors.

These PJs will keep you feeling cozy and comfortable all night long while still looking as chic as can be. “TBH, I’m starting to suspect that my pajama wardrobe is outpacing my daytime wardrobe,” says SEO Editor Marissa Wu. “I just cannot resist these pajamas! I love feeling dressed up, even for bedtime.” P.S. You can also add monogram to the breast pocket, making these a mighty fine gift idea—hint hint.

This is not a drill: The best-selling Daphne coat is finally on sale for Black Friday. Constructed in Italy from 100 percent wool, the coat is a sleek, chic and timeless. It boasts all the traditional designs of a topcoat, from polished notch lapels to welt pockets. My only qualm? It’s dry-clean only, but that’s something I’m willing to accept for this polished beauty.

On the hunt for a Chanel-inspired cropped jacket? Look no further than this best-selling J.Crew stunner. It strikes a perfect balance between structured and relaxed, and the gold hardware gives the whole thing a super-luxe vibe. Best of all, this must-have is machine washable for easy care and cleaning.

A tried-and-true J.Crew classic, these boots are sure to sell out quickly, so don’t miss you chance to snag them for 52 percent less than usual. “The sherpa lining is incredibly war,” notes Hepworth. “And the red laces add such a fun pop, especially when the weather feels so dreary.” That said, they also come with a pair of coordinating brown laces if you want something more toned down.

Skip the restrictive denim or faux-leather this holiday season in favor of these wide-leg pants with just a hint of shine. They come in six color options, including black, but I’m drawn to this burgundy hue for a luxe spin on classic wintery jewel tones. The waistband is elastic for added comfort, and they’re made of a sustainably-sourced acetate material.

Embrace your inner Dakota Johnson with a tailored denim shirt that goes with everything from slip skirts to work trousers and, of course, coordinating denim pants. This style has snaps up the front and two breast pockets, also with snap closures. It’s made of 100 percent cotton with very littler stretch, so keep that in mind when deciding which size to add to your shopping cart.

J.Crew’s Gwyneth Slip Skirt is an all-time best seller both because of its flattering silhouette and because the fabric packs and travels so well. You can dress this beauty up or down to fit any occasion, from cocktail parties to business meetings to casual weekend errand running. Plus, it’s machine washable and dryer safe.

A big cozy turtleneck sweater is a great staple piece to add to your winter wardrobe. This one is made of 100 percent cotton, with reviewers saying it’s wonderfully soft, breathable and cozy as can be. They also report it holds up well through multiple washes and runs through the dryer, although I recommend being careful with the heat as cotton is known to shrink easily. As for sizing, this sweater fits true to size according to most buyers, but if you want a more relaxed, roomy fit, I suggest sizing up.

This classic crossbody was pulled straight from J.Crew’s archive and makes for a perfect day-to-night carryall. Crafted from Italian leather and finished with custom-developed hardware, this beauty has a stylish, glossy finish. It is fairly compact, though roomy enough to fit the essentials—think: keys, wallet, phone and lipgloss—and the twist-lock closure will keep your things safe.

You can’t go wrong with plaid for the holidays, and this midi is one of the best plaid pieces I’ve seen all year. The sheer sleeves add a hint of sex appeal to balance out the longer length and crewneck top, and the lightweight fabric makes the whole thing feel airy and lovely. And that shirred waistband? It has tons of stretch to maintain that cinched waist silhouette without pinching, no matter how many glasses of Champagne you sip.

“These earrings look so expensive—even more so IRL—that it’s really hard to believe they cost less than 40 bucks,” says Hepworth. And now they cost even less for Black Friday, so you can save big when you add them to your shopping cart. “I was worried these would feel heavy on my ears, but they’re actually fairly lightweight!” she adds.

I can’t get over these gorgeous, classic loafers, which are made from sustainably sourced leather. They’re one the hottest shoes to sport this season, and I’ve seen them styled endless ways—with jeans, chunky socks, stockings, skirts, dresses, you name it. Customers note that they run a little small, so you may want to grab a half-size up. Additionally, buyers mention that there is a small break-in period, but after some time and wear, the leather softens and the shoe conforms to your feet for a comfortable fit.

This top screams ‘90s in all the best ways, especially if you decide to style it with the matching skirt (also on sale from $98 down to $55). The V-neck and ruffle detailing is flirty, but not too overt, and the flounced sleeves add some coverage on the shoulders. Tuck this cutie into jeans for dinner with your BFFs, or layer it over a silk skirt for your office holiday party.

Belts never really went out of style, but they are definitely making their way back to the forefront of our closets for 2025. This black leather design is the ultimate classic, and also comes in brown as well as multiple croc-embossed colors, and is sure to become a go-to staple for years. You can even add a monogram if you want a truly one-of-a-kind accessory for yourself or your Secret Santa.
