Wide-leg jeans, linen dresses, and more start at $18.

My best summer buys happen near the end of the season when those staples I’ve been eyeing finally go on sale. And right now, I’m grabbing some of those very items while the Madewell must-haves I’ve been quietly obsessing over for months are at the lowest price I’ve seen.

The retailer just quietly announced a major weekend sale, discounting its already-marked down items by an extra 40-percent with the code SUMMER40, so I’m quickly stocking up before it's over. Below, find everything I—a former Madewell employee turned obsessee—am shopping from the double-discount sale, including wide-leg jeans, linen dresses, trending skirts, and more, at up to 66 percent off.

8 Madewell Summer Deals

One-Shoulder Midi Dress

This linen-blend dress has gone in and out of my cart more times than I can count, but I ultimately held off on buying because I knew it would be marked down further (God, it feels good to be right). I’m finally checking out with the chic style—now 66 percent off—which has a single-shoulder strap and body-skimming silhouette that made me fall instantly in love. IMO, this is the perfect summer night dress—it’s elevated but not overly dressy.

The Emmett Wide-Leg Crop Jean

While almost all sale items are an additional 40 percent off, these Emmett jeans are an extra 50 (not sure why, but definitely not arguing). The style looks nearly identical to a pair Natalie Portman wore just, featuring a high-waisted fit, wide but not ridiculously oversized leg, slight crop, and two welt pockets at the front, details that give the blue jeans a unique, almost retro look. Plus, these make your butt look great according to shoppers.

Ribbed Off-the-Shoulder Top

A simple off-the-shoulder top makes any pair of pants or skirt look instantly more dressed up, and this shopper-favorite one is now $24. This is a style everyone from Meghan Markle to Kylie Jenner and Emily Ratajkowski have worn, proving that not only is it ageless, but it complements any wardrobe, with one customer even saying that it “elevates” any look to new, “chic levels.”

Pull-On Paperbag Midi Skirt

A flowy white midi-skirt is one of this summer’s ‘It’ items, so I’m finally shopping the trend while Madewell’s is just $54. What I love about this style is its versatility; I’ve seen it paired with everything from vintage tees and sneakers to strappy heels and fitted tops. And while the bright, summery white might have you thinking it’s expiration date is quickly approaching, I personally love the style for fall, as it pairs perfectly with dark brown boots and an oversized knit.
