Spanx’s End-of-year Sale Includes Comfy, Celeb-loved Travel Clothes Up to 50% Off — Our 15 Favorite Finds
I’m something of a Spanx devotee, and I don’t mean its original shapewear iteration. The brand’s robust athleisure offerings have been the base of my go-to travel outfits for years (I’m looking at you, Faux Leather Leggings), however, they aren’t exactly kind on the wallet, So, I’ve made it my mission to seek out deals and savings on my favorite pieces.
Fortunately, Spanx is always updating its sale section with new markdowns. I was able to find up to 50 percent off markdowns on best-sellers like the Oprah-approved AirEssentials matching set and the celeb-loved Booty Boost Leggings starting at $59. There’s plenty more where that came from; the brand is even running a limited-time sale on newly dropped puffers and outerwear (more details on that below). Keep scrolling to shop the 15 best deals from Spanx’s end-of-year sale. Hurry, they won’t stay in stock for long.
AirEssentials Puffy Vest
I have never put something in my cart and clicked buy faster. I love a vest, I love the Spanx AirEssentials line, and I live in the Midwest — need I say more? It took an unreasonable amount of self control not to purchase this in all three colors since it’s currently on sale for 20 percent off. Just use the code “PUFFY20” to unlock the savings. I scooped up the classic Spanx red for a little extra holiday cheer (and I’m based in Nebraska, so next season, I can’t wait to wear this to college football game day for an elevated tailgate ensemble).
AirEssentials Sleeveless Wide-leg Jumpsuit
I will never stop waxing poetic about this Spanx jumpsuit, which is on rare sale right now in three neutral colorways: light heather grey, cocoa, and smokey taupe. In addition to being the perfect one-and-done travel outfit, the jumpsuit also makes a great layering staple; when it’s chilly, add a sweatshirt, cardigan, or pullover and you’re ready to go. Psst: if you’re looking for more of a ski bunny look, consider the long-sleeved version, which is also on sale now.
Spanxshape Faux Leather Leggings
These are a recent addition to my wardrobe, and though I’m a few years late to the party, they are such a great legging option. I think 90 percent of my girlfriends own these faux leather beauties, and it’s easy to see why: they’re so comfortable, but they add an approachable level of sheen and edge to any outfit. I love to pair them with a cashmere sweater, but they look equally amazing with an oversized blouse or tunic situation. In fact, I wore them to a friend’s birthday dinner last night with this flowery Hill House button-up (on sale now), my trusty Larroude black patent leather Mary Janes, and a giant black bow from Marzoline.
AirEssentials Puffy Coat
Another brand-new drop this holiday season, this puffy coat has it all: a classic black color, extra length to provide bum coverage, buttery soft AirEssentials fabric, and an ideal level of bulk (not too hefty but just warm enough). I snagged the newly dropped black version, but I’ll watch for additional colors in the future too. I’d love to see this in navy. Don’t forget to use the code “PUFFY20” to get it for 20 percent off.
Spanxshape Booty Boost Full-length Leggings
A longtime favorite find, these leggings are a perennial powerhouse that you’ll find in the closets of several celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow. With breathable, sweat-wicking fabric, they’re perfect for hikes, spin classes, and long travel days. Plus, their medium compression and sculpting design makes them extra supportive when you’re moving around while creating a more flattering look, so you feel your best no matter the occasion. I have these in at least five colors, and I can’t wait to snag the pretty fuschia pair next.
AirEssentials Half Zip
Now, this is a deal you most certainly cannot miss, in my opinion. The best-selling (an Oprah-loved) Spanx AirEssentials Half Zip is on rare sale and selling out fast. I basically live in this item, and it’s the top half of my most used travel ensemble. With its super soft fabric and just the right amount of weight, the Half Zip keeps you perfectly comfy as you explore new cities. If you only get one thing from this list, make it this.
Better Base Long-sleeve Turtleneck
Spanx’s holiday sale is a great opportunity to stock up on elevated basics like this cozy turtleneck. A classic choice available in black and white, this is an excellent layering piece for building a capsule travel wardrobe. It would work well with skirts, the fabulous Spanx faux leather leggings, jeans, and even sweatpants if that’s what the vibe calls for.
AirEssentials Cinched Hoodie
I will never stop preaching the AirEssentials gospel, and I’m excited to share this new find. The cinched hoodie is a fun new silhouette to mix and match into other sets. I got my first one during the brand’s Black Friday sale in the pretty, poppy cornflower shade, and I really enjoy the slight update from my usual crewneck look. Right now, you can snag this lounge-worthy hoodie for $69, the lowest price I’ve ever seen it drop to.
Ponte Barrel Leg Pants
No travel wardrobe is complete without a quality pair of pants, and these Ponte Barrel Leg Pants are sporting a pretty nice discount. The relaxed-fitting silhouette is comfortable to wear on long flights but still dressy enough to take you from the airport to a business meeting or the first item on your itinerary. In true Spanx fashion, the pants are enhanced with four-way stretching fabric, a flattering high-rise waistband, and an easy, no-fuss pull-on design.
AirEssentials Polo Top
Another elevated take on athleisure, this AirEssentials find offers the polished look of a polo with the relaxed-fitting comfort of a sweatshirt. It’s on sale in six versatile colorways including, my longtime loves: taupey smoke and classic navy. Pair this top with leather leggings and pumps to dress it up or joggers and sneakers for a long-haul flight outfit. Need something that falls in the middle of dressy and loungey? Combine it with your favorite tapered pants and flats for a casual look.
Spanxsmooth Ponte Wrap Mini Skort
Skorts have enjoyed a bit of a resurgence in the last couple of years, and this Spanx mini does a great job of jumping on that bandwagon. The pull-on waistband means maximum comfort and the A-line shape is super flattering. It’s available in four colors and prints, but for travel purposes, I’m most drawn to the black since it’ll match the most in my wardrobe.
AirEssentials Crew Neck Dress
Say hello to your new favorite travel dress. Spanx put its cozy twist on the classic sweater dress silhouette with its oh-so-soft AirEssentials Fabric, creating an almost sweatshirt-like comfort. Perfectly oversized and equipped with two handy side pockets, the Crew Neck Dress can styled with a vintage belt and cute booties or layered under a billowy long coat with knee-high boots for colder temps.
Breast of Both Worlds Reversible Comfort Bra
It feels like some sort of mistake that this incredible bra is on sale, but it’s good news to all of us bargain shoppers. So hop to it and grab this super comfortable and reversible bra while it’s only $29. It’s supportive enough to use for a light workout, and it’s structured enough to work for everyday use. This dual purpose makes it an awesome addition to any travel wardrobe, and the pastel shade works under almost every color shirt.
Get Moving Contour Crossback Shelf Tank
Nothing makes me feel more put together than wearing a matching set, which is why I love to pair my Booty Boost Leggings and AirEssentials Half Zip with Spanx’s Get Moving Contour Crossback Shelf Tank. Available in six pretty colors, this workout tank provides ample support with its built-in bra and compressive fabric, and it’s sleek enough to sport from your morning hike to lunch afterward. Bonus: It’s also made from quick-drying fabric, which will come in handy if you’re doing laundry somewhere where dryers can be hard to find.
Spanxsmooth Bra-llelujah One-and-Done Cami
This Bra-lellujah tank (we love a good pun) does double time: it’s part tank top to layer or sleep in and part bra with its built-in support. For travel, that helps save space in your carry-on bag while adding a little touch of smooth, shaping power. I like it so much that I have both the white and the black hues.
