From easy-to-style sweater vests to office-ready shirt dresses.
I was a huge fan of Abercrombie & Fitch’s collared polo shirts and logo tees in the early 2000s, but I’ve found that I like the brand’s new aesthetic just as much as an adult. When it started to make a resurgence after its recent rebranding, I purchased an oversized button-down shirt and loved it so much that I bought it in multiple colors and prints. Since then, Abercrombie has become one of my go-to places to shop for basic everyday clothes, so I’m always excited to browse the New Arrivals section for new things to add ot my closet.
Right now there are so many cute items, and since I can’t buy all of them, I thought I’d share some of my favorites with you. And some products are even on sale, so you’ll definitely want to check them out now before they sell out.
Put together an entire work-ready outfit with these pleated trousers, long-sleeve T-shirt, wool-blend blazer, and vegan leather purse. Another great find for a casual look is this cozy fleece zip-up with a removable hood. It’s made with sweat-wicking neoprene, making it ideal for wearing to and from the gym. I rounded up even more stylish and functional items from Abercrombie below to match whatever occasion you’re heading to.

Notch-Neck Sweater
If you want something dressier than an average crewneck, reach for this collared top when it’s too cold to wear anything but a sweater. The knit sweater features a notched neck and ribbed collar and hems for the perfect amount of texture and design, and it’s made of a machine-washable cotton, nylon, and elastane fabric. Dress it up with a pair of trousers for work, or style it with straight-leg jeans for an effortless 90s look.
Tipped V-Neck Sweater Vest
You can wear this V-neck vest as a top under a blazer or a cardigan or wear it over a button-down for a cute, layered outfit. Shoppers say that the “classic staple” looks and feels high quality and say it's easy to wear for casual and professional looks. The cropped length ribbed detailing adds a bit more shape to your torso, too, great for balancing with wide leg trousers or jeans. Available in ribbed gray and navy with contrast tipping and yellow and white cable knit, the vest is made of a cotton-, nylon-, and viscose-blend material for easy care.
High-Rise Loose Jean
These jeans are so popular that some washes are already selling out, so be sure to snag a pair while they’re still around. Available in sizes 23 through 37 and lengths extra short to extra long, you’ll have no trouble finding your perfect fit. Even if you’re on the shorter side or you typically wear regular-length pants, you can get a longer inseam for a trendy puddle hem look. Pair them with pointed-toe kitten heels for a dressier aesthetic or with your favorite platform sneakers for something more relaxed. The high-rise jeans are made of rigid denim that doesn’t stretch, so keep that in mind when selecting a size.
Long-Sleeve Poplin Shirt Dress
Look instantly polished for the office or dinner with friends with this adorable tailored button-down dress. The 100 percent cotton poplin dress has functional buttons all the way down the front and a cinched waist that would look great styled with a belt. It hits around mid-thigh, making it perfect for warm fall and spring days, but you can pair it with tights and knee-high boots for winter, too. Choose from black, blue-and-white-striped, and striped with contrasting collar and cuffs options, all of which will go with anything in your closet.
Tweed Trucker Jacket
Classic meets edgy in this zippered tweed jacket. The collared style has a boxy fit and hits right at your waist to show off your jeans or skirt. Zip it all the way up to wear as a top on its own, or layer it over a sweater or T-shirt in place of a blazer. When the temperatures start to warm up, the jacket can also become your everyday lightweight coat.
