Best Items From American Apparel’s Closing Sale
For fashion-lovers everywhere, Friday the 13th spurred some pretty devastating news: American Apparel, AKA our go-to spot for high-quality basics in all colors of the rainbow, is officially closing down. The beloved brand was sold to Canadian company Gildan Activewear at an auction for $88 million, and just like that, it was over. All 110 remaining brick-and-mortar stores in the U.S. will be shut down, too, leaving us and fans of the store in a total frenzy. The only good news? Their killer closing sale. Everything — yes everything — online and in-store is 40% off when you use the promocode 'TAKE40' — so basically you know where we'll be until further notice. Not sure where to begin? We get it — there's so much to choose from! Which is why we went ahead and rounded up 12 of our favorite items worthy of stocking up on. Now we highly suggest you run, don't walk, to catch the best options before they're gone for good. OK, cue the tears again.
