While I enjoy a good splurge, you don’t have to spend a fortune to achieve a stylish outfit. Gap Factory has become my go-to destination for sourcing quality, affordable, and fashionable pieces that make outfit building effortless. Plus, it’s a great place to do some holiday shopping, especially now that their Black Friday Savings Event has started! You’ll save 50–70% off sitewide, plus an extra 15% off + free shipping with code GFFRIDAY, making this the best time to shop!
Here are three chic and budget-friendly looks to get you started. First up, I styled their CashSoft Ribbed Polo Sweater Mini Dress in Beet Red with black suede knee boots, for a look that’s both modern and timeless. This rich hue looks festive without being over the top, and the ribbed knit adds texture and a flattering fit.
If you’re looking for an alternative to jeans, these High Rise Vintage Slim Corduroy Pants are a fantastic option. They’re soft and stretchy and have a flattering slim, straight ankle length fit. I’m especially drawn to the rich burgundy shade, aptly named Noir Red, but they’re also available in a warm Sierra Brown—perfect for the season—and a navy velvet option that’s ideal for holiday outfits.
I wore a black collared cardigan and black slingback flats to bookend the look, and I topped it off with their Vegan Leather Sherpa Bomber Jacket for a contrast of textures and an edgy finish.
This CashSoft Collared Button-Front Cardigan has a ribbed texture that’s form-fitting but not clingy, and the collar gives it a trendy touch. I sized up to the medium in this, to ensure the buttons don’t gape across the chest. You could also wear a black cami under it, if you’re concerned about that.
And this Vegan Leather Sherpa Bomber Jacket is an incredible find at just $40! The classic bomber fit offers plenty of room for layering, and the sherpa collar adds a cozy touch while elevating the overall look, making it a perfect mix of edgy and warm.

Finally, this cozy turtleneck sweater features a traditional Fair Isle pattern at the yoke, a cozy mockneck, and long raglan sleeves with ribbed cuffs. It has a relaxed fit, and it runs a little big. I’m wearing the small.
I paired it with their High Rise Soft Vintage Slim Jeans in the faded black wash, for a neutral look that I find soothing and luxe. You can never go wrong with camel and black! I wore loafers for a preppy touch, but black Chelsea boots would also look great with this, and they would definitely be warmer as we head into the winter months.
Once again, I topped off this look with that Vegan Leather Sherpa Bomber Jacket, and now I really wish I’d remembered to bring my boots to this photo shoot—they would’ve added the perfect balance to the outfit. But you get the idea. This cozy outfit is ideal for running daily errands, tackling holiday shopping, catching up with a friend over coffee, or anything else the season brings your way!

I ordered the Burgundy slim cords and a few t shirts. Thanks for the reminder about Gap Factory and another great post!
That photo of you in the email is so nice. The black coat tights and black boots with that stripe gray dress looks so chic. I didn’t like the dress when you first styled it without the black tights. The black coat over just makes it look better.
Very nice outfits! That Vegan Leather Bomber Jacket is actually $30 right now, an unbelievable deal! It’s really cute, and I love the collar.
JoLynne, can you zip the bomber jacket closed in that size Small? I’m wondering whether I should order a Medium if I want to zip it up.
I’m not even sure I tried, but I think I could. It feels pretty roomy.
I bought both the grey and camel fair isle sweaters yesterday after seeing them in your post. They do run big! I reordered S and M to try today when I do store pickup. I bought two waffle shirts last week. Thank you and Happy Thanksgiving!
I ordered the dress and the pants yesterday through your Instagram links, but I didn’t realize there was a code for another 15% off and free shipping. (I added a waffle knit shirt to get to the free shipping threshold lol *girl math*) But just now when I realized there was a code, I hopped on a chat with Gap Factory Customer Service and they were able to credit my account back with the 15%! Excited for some fun holiday looks!
