I Showed My Friend These H&M Finds, and She Couldn't Believe They Were Under $50

I’m the one in my friend group that gets text messages asking for shopping advice. It comes with the territory, given my job as a fashion editor. And trust me, I love it and adore sending over some of my favorite selects. One of my dear friends wanted advice on a new piece or two that would make her current wardrobe feel modern, but she didn’t want to spend a lot. There are a few retailers I turn to for affordable items, and H&M is one of the said stores.

I sent her four items to consider (a tank, skirt, trousers, and flats). Each cost under $50, which my friends honestly couldn’t believe because of how elevated the styles looked. If you keep scrolling, you’ll uncover the finds I sent to my friend. I also rounded up all of the other expensive-looking H&M items that feature forward design details to provide any further shopping inspiration.
