I Love '90s Minimalism—30 Under-$100 Picks I'm Adding to My Cart Now
For all intents and purposes, I get paid to write, but I also get paid to shop. I spend hours (and hours and hours) scrolling and saving and hearting my favorite fashion finds across a wide variety of budgets. *And yet* my most satisfying days occur when I uncover chic finds for under $100. Since I've declared '90s minimalism as my foolproof aesthetic but, alas, can't afford to drape myself head to toe in The Row, budget-friendly items with a similar vibe are my current target.
Good news for me: There's a lot out there! My most recent search led me to a cotton-shorts-and-T-shirt set from Zara that might as well be straight out of a '90s Benetton ad, a white sheath dress Gwyneth Paltrow could have for sure worn back in the day, and black-and-white contrasting thong sandals that look way more expensive than their price tag. With its recent '90s heritage collection, Mango has been especially on point, as has J.Crew since it began leaning into reproducing items like its classic sweaters and swimsuits some years ago.
Keep scrolling for all of my favorite '90s-inspired dresses, pants, shoes, and more!
I like this linen vest as an elevated basic. It's casual enough to wear when you're bopping around town but elegant enough to wear to dinner.
Sorry, but this top paired with the Mango capri pants? Heaven if you ask me.
Relaxed linen trousers don't have to be reserved for the summer months. If you buy them in a darker color, they easily translate to spring and fall.
While they're sold separately, this top and the matching shorts belong together.
Silk is great as a scrunchie material because it's gentle on your strands and doesn't pull.
My love for the white-and-black contrast stitching has me feeling bold.
I'm deferring to light-blue button-ups with jeans in place of my standard white.
This cuff comes in two sizes and is often the answer to "What is this outfit missing?"
While I might be aiming for the Jamie Haller flats, these are a much more affordable alternative.
I'm forever channeling Carolyn Bessette-Kennedy with my eyewear, and these look like something she would wear.
