Watching something go viral so quickly in real time is always amusing—especially when it’s just a simple black sweater. The other day, I was scrolling through TikTok when a video of Devon Lee Carlson popped up on my For You page. I liked the shape and weight of the sweater she was wearing, so I absentmindedly checked the comments to see if anyone had ID’d it. Someone had asked where it was from, and I would’ve never guessed her response: Banana Republic.
Since then, I’ve seen people making videos going to try it on for themselves. It was originally $120, but it’s currently on sale for $72 as part of the Friends & Family Sale, where you get 40% off full-price purchases. It’s just one of those easy, timeless pieces you just know you’ll end up wearing on repeat.
I was surprised to find a ton of chic wardrobe staples—and they’re all on sale until March 30.
