Fashion’s Not-So-Strange Addiction: These Under-$125 Cult Items

Fashion people don’t mess around. When this trend-forward group
spots a new item
with the potential to be “a thing,” they pounce on it quickly
to further cement their insider status. And when said item just so
happens to be on the affordable
end, well, let’s just say they click the “add to cart”
button even more aggressively. After all, who doesn’t want to be
the one with the next It item? Exactly.

On that note, after scrolling through our Instagram feeds this
week, it became apparent that there are actually a few key finds
from lower-priced brands like ASOS and Zara that
fashion girls seem to be addicted to. We’re talking coveted
pieces that could easily be summed up as “cult-like” because
multiple women (not just one or two) across the globe are wearing
on repeat.

With all that in mind, we’ve curated a selection of the five
under-$125 It items we’re spotting over and over again on IG.
Keep scrolling to discover the defining pieces on IG, along with
other affordable must-haves that are bound to become cult hits as
well.

We probably don’t need to sit here and hash out the reasons why
this top is quickly becoming a cult item. One quick glance, and you
immediately know it’s just right. Yep, that’s all thanks to the
ultra-flattering V-neckline, on-trend balloon sleeves, and
interesting waist detail you can tie in the front or back.

One word to describe this coveted faux-leather dress? Special.
Crazy popular amongst
U.K. girls, the silhouette is quite fashion-forward with the
zipper detail, puffed sleeves, and midi length. And the rich color
and luscious-feeling fabric brings the style to the next level.

The coolest fashion girls won’t seem to quit this
ultra-versatile organic cotton jacket. We totally get it—it’s
ideal for transitional temps, cool in nature with the slouchier
fit, and can legit pair with anything your closet (including the

coordinating wide-leg trousers).

You may already be familiar with this famous dress. The
polka-dot number has literally been everywhere this summer. In
fact, the Who What Wear UK
team has predicted it to
be the next jacquard coat. Why is it such an It item? Well, the
desirable price, effortless fit (the voluminous silhouette is so in
right now), and wildly-popular polka-dot detail makes it a
certified front-runner for sure.

Sure, summer is winding down, but this vibrant standout will
continue to hold its own for off-duty life well into September. The
forward hue and statement-making accents (including the knotted
detail and elevated sleeves) are just a few of the reasons why it
has become a mainstay in the wardrobes of fashion people.
