It seems like I spend $200 any time I step outside in New York City. Between oat-milk lattes, drinks with friends, trinket shopping, Citi Bike rides, and treats from the Mister Softee ice cream truck, life in the city can quickly add up when you're always on the go like I am. To curb my spending habits, I've restricted my nonessential shopping to the bare minimum, spending money on transportation, groceries, and essential bills only. Yes, it's true. I haven't made a nonessential purchase since last month. Please clap.
Naturally, as someone currently on a tight budget, I've rounded up the best affordable items from Shopbop's sale. If you're cautious, look away! Otherwise, you might end up with a few packages coming your way after you scroll through these 30 Shopbop finds.
This sheer knit is so dreamy.
Good American always makes the best pants.
Staud for under $100? Sign me up.
Trust me when I say that denim shackets are going to be huge this fall.
This dress would be so chic with a pair of black leather boots and a matching biker jacket.
Cute!
I'll buy anything Reformation makes, especially when it's on sale!
Agolde jeans rarely go on sale, so don't miss out on this discounted pair.
Okay, these look rich.
This simple V-neck knit would be perfect with jeans in the fall.
A chic take on a little (or long) black dress.
The dark wash on this denim makes it look 10 times more luxe.
A subtle, less dramatic take on barrel jeans.
Loafers are such a fall staple, so it's shocking that this discounted pair is still in stock.
Not a want, but a need.
Another simple black shirt you can layer with endlessly.
Chic!
No joke, this mini trench might be my favorite find on this list.
Another can't-miss Staud deal.
My jaw dropped when I saw the price of these.
Okay, Shopbop, I see you with the selection!
These shoe deals are so good.
As I'm sure you can tell by now, I have a thing for on-sale Staud pieces.
Run, don't walk, to get these before they sell out.
The ideal going-out top that still feels elevated while being fun.
I own these 550 sneakers, and yep, they're as good IRL as they look online.
Nap dresses aren't just a summer thing! Case in point, this black puff-sleeve midi is perfect for fall strolls in Central Park.
No outfit is complete without a great belt in my book.
Aren't you glad you kept scrolling?
I'll leave you with this classic find.
