DEAL: The regular price is $119, it’s now 50% off at $60.00

SPECS: This full-zip top keeps your core temperature constant by dispersing moisture when you’re moving and trapping body heat when you’re stopped. Made of Capilene® 4 Expedition Weight fabric – the warmest in the Capilene family – it is soft, stretchy and compressible, and has a smooth jersey face that glides beneath layers and a brushed-fleece interior that warms, wicks, and feels smooth against the skin.

SPECS: The ultimate travel dress is made from a wrinkle-resistant blend of 55% organic cotton, 35% recycled polyester and 10% spandex that retains its charm in otherwise irritable conditions. Shirring detail enhances the flattering V-neck; center-front gathers cinch the waist. A self-fabric belt ties at side seams, providing adjustability. Front hip pockets. A-line hem falls above the knee.
