As we transition out of winter and into early spring, it can be tricky to choose an outfit. When it’s time to face transitional weather, it’s a safe bet to have in-between clothing pieces on hand, whether it’s a cardigan sweater or a lightweight jacket.
Sweater vest-style tops are a versatile investment because they’re lightweight and easy to layer, while still providing warmth on chilly days. Banana Republic Factory’s Merino Wool Mock-Neck Sweater is a prime example, and it’s on sale for a double discount today. It’s just $28 and many reviewers agree that the “fabric is soft and lightweight,” with one shopper saying it’s a “great staple for work.”

Made of luxurious merino wool, this sweater top features a mock neckline, which offers essential warmth for early spring, with cap sleeves that softly drape off the shoulder. The bodice is loose and roomy, with a fitted, elastic waistline that several shoppers say is “very flattering.” The $70 style is marked down to just $35 in pale blue, black, pink, and tan, but with today’s deal, you can score an additional 20% discount that automatically applies at checkout.
“This top is not only extremely comfortable but also very flattering in the way it fits,” said one shopper. “It hugs you in the right areas and the color is beautiful. You can dress it down with jeans and sneakers or dress it up with trousers and heels for a chic and sophisticated look. Either way, it’s a must-have closet piece! This top definitely exceeded my expectations as soon as I put it on.”

Another said the silhouette “looks nice under a blazer for winter, but will also be cute alone in the spring.” They added, “The arms holes are perfectly covered by an inset so that a camisole is not required. At the same time, there’s room to layer this over a blouse.”
This stylish transitional piece is definitely worth snagging with a price this low. Shop it now in sizes XXS to 2XL before it’s gone for good.
