In our office, we spend a lot of time discussing how we’d love to spend our money if we won a million-dollar jackpot. It’s pretty unlikely, but someone’s gotta win it, right? But what about the opposite end of the spectrum? It's harder to shop smart on a budget—but way more realistic.
To prove you canlook a million bucks on a shoestring, our editors have dished on how they’d spend their last $100. Keep scrolling to see what made the list!
Gucci
Vintage Belt
“I'd stay true to my current style and shopping wish list with my last $100. May as well go down in a blaze of fashion glory! The brand of the moment is Gucci, and I've been hunting around for a vintage buckle belt. So that's what I'd buy, and then wear it with a white T-shirt and high-waisted jeans. Simple and timeless.”
Bassike
Wide Rib Neck Tee
“This is without a doubt, my favourite T-shirt in the world. I don’t know what I’d do if Bassike stopped making it, so I’d spend my last $100 on adding to my collection. I’m stocking up like I’m preparing for the Rapture.”
Tom Ford
Spanish Pink Lip Color
“I used to think Tom Ford’s Lip Coloor was only popular because of its mega-chic packaging, but now I know better—the formula really is one of the best out there. I’d happily spend my last hundo on my favourite nude shade, Spanish Pink.”
Sarah and Sebastian
Drop Ring Gold
“Super fine, delicate, gold, handmade in Sydney. What’s not to love? More than worth spending my last $100 on.”
Alice In The Eve
Long Sleeve Knit Dress
“It’s starting to get pretty cold in the mornings, so I’d spend my last $100 on a ribbed knit midi dress. I HATE being cold.”
ASOS
Bonded Satin Midi Dress
“Because I’m annoyingly practical, I would buy a classic LBD—that I can dress up or down—with my last $100. I can wear it to work with a loafer, on the weekend with Converse, and out for dinner with a heel.”
