Several organic-cotton basics areon sale at Pact for Earth Month. Our top pick: these supersoft “airplane pants” that feel like pajamas but look like wide-leg trousers. They were ourDeal of the Dayearlier this week, and a lot of our readers bought them; they’re $5 cheaper now, so it’s a good time to join the soft-pants club.
Lots of “early spring” styles are on sale at Uniqlo right now, including many nice options for the office. My top picks are these $40work pants, a pretty striped polo for half off, and a handful ofoxford button-downs.

This Athleta crescent bag is up to 63 percent off, depending on which color you choose. The cheapest option is hot pink (now $18), and the priciest is butter yellow (now $29). But my favorite is this lapis-blue shade (now $25).
Men’s fashion
Quite a few good layers for spring are up to 40 percent off in the men’s section at Uniqlo, including a few options fromthe brand’s latest collaboration with designer JW Anderson. And while they don’tquitehit my “good deal” threshold of 20 percent off,these nice light-wash jeansare $10 off, which isn’t a huge discount, but it’s not bad for in-season Uniqlo.
Plenty of Naadam’s Strategist-approved cashmere for men is 25 percent off this weekend. Lean into spring with a short-sleeve polo, or grab some extra-soft work-from-home pants.
