Listen, we love a splurge purchase, but we also appreciate a good save, which is why we're always keeping an eye on our favorite brands' latest affordable drops and annual sales. While the internet has no shortage of shoppable material, like Nordstrom's winter sale and fine jewelry that's actually affordable, there's nothing better than an inexpensive find that looks expensive. That's why we rounded up the best under $50 picks that will make you look as elite as everyone else already thinks you are.
We searched high and low from the fan favorite department storeReplica Store to beloved retailers like Mango and Zara to pull together a comprehensive list of pieces that will make you feel like yourself at your very best. After all, who wants to leave the house in a blah outfit? That's just a recipe for a bad day. Below, all the ingredients for a truly killer 'fit, all for under 50 bucks.
A crisp, blue Oxford shirt is always a good idea.
A ribbed midi dress is the ultimate elevated staple piece.
