Saddle Up: A Lot of Chic Newness Just Dropped at H&M, J.Crew, and Zara

Just in case today is the day you brighten up with a teeny-tiny spot of shopping, I'm here with some hot-off-the-grill picks for you. If, perhaps, you haven't had a moment to hit refresh on Wholesale Replica Bag drops, I'm thrilled to be the one to introduce you to this slew of tasty hero items that all look way more designer than their (rather-friendly) price points.
There's really good stuff going on at J.Crew. (Creative Director Olympia Gayot's office selfies continue to inform my wish list of cardigans. Plus, there's a leather bucket bag I really love that just dropped in a new colorway.) H&M has some absurdly elevated new pieces—nipped-waist blazers, chic minimalist sneakers, trenches—that honestly would be very at home over at COS. As for Zara, welp, I accidentally bought one of its sweaters last week, and now I'm rabbit-holing through its knitwear in case there's anything else I missed.
Okay, let's go. And let's keep everything under, say, $260, shall we?
