Yes, I said it. My budget is nonexistent, and yet here I am
doing a shopping story. It might not make sense, but it’s
happening. Welcome to my life… Not that this is an extraordinary
predicament; I’m sure everyone knows the struggle of wanting
something that you can’t necessarily obtain. Working at Who What
Wear, I am inundated day in and day out with high-end fashion that
I absolutely want to add to cart. Would I love a matte black
Dior saddle bag? Clearly. But I would also love to pay my rent
and buy groceries, so when I allow myself an indulgence, I’m
sticking with budget-friendly
under-$100 picks. 

Just so we’re all on the same page, a budget-friendly price tag
doesn’t mean you have to compromise on trends or style—just look
at all the affordable
pieces we spotted at New York Fashion Week. You do,
however, have to get crafty with what pieces you buy—and maybe
even when you buy them. (My parents don’t call me Payday G for
nothin.) I like to stick to items that aren’t too obviously trendy
and that I can wear in multiple ways over the next couple of
months. Take this above plaid shacket from H&M. For early
fall, it works as a light jacket for cool evenings; for winter,
I’ll use it as a layering piece underneath a puffer. 

Ahead, shop that versatile shacket and 27 other under-$100
pieces I’m prioritizing for fall. 

A
trendy take in a forever color. I’m a fan. 

At
5’9″, I’m a big fan of Levi’s Ribcage jeans, which nip in right
where I like them to above my waist. 

Wear
this buttoned up on its own or open over a tank or
turtleneck. 

Just
thought this was cute. 

I
love anything sheer. Just make sure you have the right items on
underneath. 

Paired
with the above turtleneck, this skirt makes the perfect early fall
outfit. 

On
sale and in my cart. 

A
not-so-basic long-sleeve white tee. 

I
picked up the above cheap ring on a whim, and it’s brought me joy
every day since.

The
ultimate in versatility. 

The
coolest Converse style I’ve seen in a minute. 

Mock-croc looks
expensive but doesn’t have to be. 

I
bought this the other day, and I can’t wait to layer it over
basically everything.

I
would layer it over this…

And
wear it with these… (I’m telling you: You cannot have too many
pairs of these Ribcage jeans.)

I’d
probably wear those cool Converse sneakers with this dress. 

Okay,
I bought this too. Am I out of control?

I
have one of these and wear it as a crossbody bag all the time; it’s
especially good for hiking and weekends upstate. 

This
looks way more expensive than it actually is—especially paired
with black trousers. 

I’ll
take any motivation I can get to go to the gym. 

Starting
with a sparkly workout set. 

This
silhouette caught my eye. 

I
love how this does the layering for you. 

Can’t
stop the mock croc. Won’t stop the mock croc. 

Prediction:
You buy this. You wear it under a denim jacket. You go to an apple
orchard. Everything is cute. 

A
budget-friendly all-black look in three acts. This is act
one. 

Act
two: the attention grabber. 

Act
three: Choose your own finale with Everlane’s choose what you pay
pricing option. Pay as little as $84 or as much as $112. Up to
you!
