There’s nothing I like more than settling in on a rainy New York day to do a deep dive into the best fashion the likes of Shopbop, Nordstrom, and Revolve have to offer. These three retailers are masters of the high-low mix, with designer pieces like Toteme flats and Khaite denim expertly placed amongst the kind of guilt-free under-$100 buys that seem to jump right into your cart.
Those more affordable buys are why we’re here today, and if you’re anything like me (and are into jazzing up expensive-looking classic items with on-trend pieces that bring some personality), then you’re in the right place. Some of these are desperate to be worn before summer is done, others are already getting ahead on fall, and all of them are highly covetable, under-$100, and deserve a peep.
