Out of 943 Pieces at the COS Sale, These 24 Deserve a Spot in Your Closet
My two hours of scrolling paid off.


COS has quickly become one of my favorite places to shop. The range consists of elevated, easy-to-style picks that make me feel instantly put-together. So, I’m obviously shopping its massive Friends and Family Sale—and I've made you the perfect edit in the process.
The brand is offering 25 percent off the entire site right now, including new arrivals, when you apply the code “COSFRIEND” at checkout, with a few exclusions. Luckily, some options I’ve had my eye on (as well as others I already own and love) are included in the discounted selection. There are the barrel-legged cargo pants I’ve worn every week since I bought them, the cobalt blue mesh flats that have changed my mind on the trend, and plenty of elegant tops that serve as easy swaps for the wardrobe basics I’ve worn all winter. The sale runs until April 2, so I recommend checking out the deals now before they sell out.
I scrolled through nearly 1,000 items to compile this list of 24 absolute must-haves. Read on for my edit—and thank me later for all the compliments you’re about to receive.
I'm always up for chic and easy ways to elevate my wardrobe, and this top fits the bill.

Choose this top as a great base layer on those weird in-between weather days.
