As you may have read throughout my articles—or seen on Instagram—I love Zara as much as the next girl. However, my relationship with the fast-fashion powerhouse seems to be a little more temperamental than our average Zara devotee, taking regular breaks from the brand, mostly because the pieces are so good that everyone has them!
Since, at the moment, my on-again, off-again relationship with the brand happens to be off and we’re on the heels of a new season, today I’ve decided to look to some of my other favorite affordable sites and brands to see what under-$50 fall-ready scores I could find. From shoes and bags to dresses and tops, shop my picks of items you won’t see everyone else wearing but will love as much as your last Zara score. Check them out below.
