Here atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing , we love nothing more than finding those affordable pieces that stand the test of time—we're all about the longer-term investment, no matter the price point. So when it comes to finding those classic pieces on a budget, where do you start? The autumn collections are now filtering in, and they're a good place to begin because the foundational autumn basics take up a huge part of these drops. You'll see all of the trusty old favourites like trench coats and blazers, fine knits and autumnal midi dresses, only with a 2022 spin. There's a great deal to choose from, but as always, we have done the legwork for you to edit things down to the items that are most worth your time.
When it comes to spotting a piece that feels above its affordable heritage, look out for fabric composition (natural fibres often lend a more expensive edge, even better if it's organic), silhouette (there's something about an oversized cut that automatically looks chicer) and colours (brights and prints can look expensive, but you'll always find neutrals are winners).
Keep scrolling for my top 19 under-£50 shopping picks.
1. BRETON TOP
Long live the Breton!
2. OVERSIZED BLAZER
H&M has done it again. This won't stick around.
3. WHITE T-SHIRT
A white T-shirt is a wardrobe classic. This Whistles number sits perfectly with just the right amount of sheer to the fabric.
4. BLUE COTTON SHIRT
The relaxed cut and thin stripe detail on this Uniqlo cotton shirt screams expensive.
5. PRINTED MIDI DRESS
I love a trans-seasonal style you can wear with a polo neck layered underneath for autumn or with sandals for summer.
6. CHUNKY CHAIN
More is more when it comes to gold. Layer to make a statement.
7. TRENCH COAT
Run, don't walk. You won't find better on the high street at this price.
8. TAILORED TROUSERS
Paired with a crisp white T-shirt and Birkenstocks, this is my go-to look.
9. WAISTCOAT
If you only buy one thing this autumn, make it this.
10. SLOGAN SWEATSHIRT
Weekend loading in this comfy sweatshirt.
11. SHRUNKEN CARDIGAN
Mark my words: Once you try this shrunken silhouette, you won't go back.

Real leather at this price, you say?
13. LACE BODYSUIIT
I love this teamed with an oversized blazer and straight-leg denim for an easy throw-on outfit.

The longer and wider, the better.
15. ROLL-NECK
Is it wrong that I can't wait to start layering my roll-necks under everything in my wardrobe?

The perfect tote updated for autumn in suede. Yes, please.
17. LBD
Peak '90s vibes under £30—you can't go wrong.
18. SHACKET
Easily one of the hardest-working basics in your wardrobe. Plus, it has pockets!
