J. Crew Sweater Sale – Gift Picks for Him, Her, and You.
Use code SHIP150 for free shipping when you spend $150 or more
Is giving a sweater as a Christmas present cliche? A bit. But what if it’s an awesome sweater that the recipient will count as one of their favorites for years to come?
J. Crew does a fine job in the sweater department. They’re running a 25% off sale that ends today, and you can get those sweaters shipped free if you spend more than $150 (which is a lot) and use the code SHIP150. That code is good through December 20th, but the sweater sale only lasts till 11:59 PM ET tonight. Here’s a couple of picks to package up so you can get the free shipping.
.
For Him: Fine Lambswool Mock Neck Cardigan – $73.50 (reg. $98)
The traditional style of a cardigan is nice, but it’s a high mock neck version like this that he’ll reach for over and over again. He can wear this thing just about however and wherever he wants. It leans a little casual but it can still do some dressed up duty with chinos. Not all guys like v-necks. Not all guys like traditional cardigans. This is the answer for the “it’s cold, I need something warm, what should I wear?” question. Layer it under a standard collar fall jacket if you’re headed somewhere that would otherwise require you to get your peacoat or topcoat dirty.
.
For Her: Cable Ribbed Turtle Neck or Chalet Shawl Collar – $73.50 (reg. $98)
There’s hardly anything better than a great looking woman in a well fitting sweater. Let her pick out the sweaters with embellishments. You should stick with the classics. Like a turtleneck or a modified shawl collar. If you really want to get spendy, J. Crew makes a cashmere turtleneck that’ll be all soft and no itch. Save the receipt because buying clothes for a woman isn’t the easiest size/color/style code to crack.
.
For You: Heavy Cotton Shawl Collar Cardigan – $88.50 (reg. $118)
I know, another cardigan… but you can get your standard V-necks and crewnecks for a bit less (even on sale) at other places. It’s this substantial black cotton cardigan with the leather (or leather like?) buttons that’ll be hard to find anywhere else. It’s almost a dead ringer for the style Daniel Craig wore in Quantum of Solace when he goes and looks up Mathis for help. His sweater might be shaker wool, but a thick cotton will work deeper into the spring. Slimmer shawl collar on the J. Crew version too. Hard to say you can improve on 007’s style, but… this one does.
