💅🏽 Baddie Basics Under $60
The outfit starters. 🤎 These are the fitted, feminine tops that make jeans or a simple skirt look GOOD without requiring a whole styling session.
Brown + fitted + under $40 = say less. 🤎 This is exactly the type of basic I want for fall because it makes jeans look like an actual outfit. Add gold jewelry, a cute shoulder bag and you're DONE.
EDIKTED Loren Strapless Bodysuit (Women)
The neckline is doing what it needs to do 😭🤎 A fitted brown bodysuit is one of those pieces I'd wear 20 different ways. Jeans for casual, mini skirt for going out, trousers when we're pretending to be sophisticated. 😂
EDIKTED Alondra V-Neck Bodysuit (Women)
BURGUNDY for fall?! Immediately yes. 🍷 This is how I want to do a sexy fall top without it looking like summer leftovers. The lace + deep burgundy color already makes the whole outfit. Perfect with dark denim or black pants.
EDIKTED Lace Bodysuit (Women)
Free People under $50?! 👀 The one-shoulder neckline makes this way more interesting than another plain fitted top. I'd wear it with jeans + boots + a cute brown bag and let the neckline do all the work.
Modern Muse One-Shoulder Top
This is the “jeans and a cute top” cute top. 😂🎀 The lace + corset shape gives date-night energy without needing a whole complicated outfit. Add denim, heels and a little bag. DONE.
Fiona Lace Corset Cami
🍫 One-and-Done Outfits
My favorite kind of outfit is one I don't actually have to put together. 😂 Sets and dresses make you look like you tried when all you really did was add shoes and a bag.
The outfit already styled itself for me. 😂💕 A matching top AND skirt means I don't have to stand in front of the closet trying to figure out what goes together. Wear it with flats now and boots/jacket later.
Annette Tee Skirt Set
A whole Free People look under $100? Okayyy. 👀 This is exactly the kind of set I like buying because you get the full outfit AND can separate the pieces later. Basically three outfits hiding inside one purchase. 😂
Portia Skirt Set
The $60 dress that doesn't need much help. 🎀 The asymmetrical ruffle detail makes this so much cuter than a plain T-shirt dress. I'd do boots + oversized jacket for fall and call it a day.
Astrid T-Shirt Mini Dress
🎀 Skirts That Make a Basic Top Look Expensive
This is my favorite fashion cheat code: cheap/fitted top + GOOD skirt + cute bag. Suddenly everybody thinks you planned the outfit. 😂
The lace trim sold me immediately. 😭🎀 A satin skirt already looks dressed up, but the little lace detail makes this feel so much more expensive. Pair it with a fitted long sleeve and boots for the cutest fall date-night outfit.
Something Satin Mini Slip Skirt
🤎 Jackets + Layers That Upgrade the Whole Fit
Throw the right jacket over a simple outfit and suddenly everything looks more expensive. THAT is the kind of girl math I'm interested in. 😂🍂
Okay this is the splurge piece… but LOOK at her. 😭 The slouchy shape + cinched waist makes this the kind of jacket that becomes the outfit. I'd wear a cheap fitted top underneath and let the jacket get all the attention.
Devon Solid Balloon Jacket
👢 Shoes That Make the Outfit
You can have the cutest outfit ever and the wrong shoes will ruin the whole operation. 😂 These are the fall shoes I'd use to make affordable clothes look way more put together.
Cognac boots for around $50?! 🤎 This is such an easy fall shoe because the color works with denim, black, cream AND chocolate brown. The block heel gives you height without giving “I regret wearing these” after 30 minutes. 😂
MIA Pallmer Block Heel Bootie (Women)
The sale price is the reason she's here. 👀 A neutral Chelsea boot is one of those shoes you can keep pulling out with jeans and leggings without thinking about it. Cute + practical + doesn't require designer-boot money.
MIA Paula Chelsea Boot (Women)
Okayyy THIS is the going-out boot. 🖤 The fitted sock-style ankle + heel makes these so much sexier than a chunky everyday boot. I'd wear them with the satin skirt or a fitted mini dress.
MIA Pamilla Knit Bootie (Women)
👜 Bags That Make the Outfit Look $$$
This might be my favorite section because you can literally wear jeans + a $20 top and carry the right bag and suddenly the outfit looks expensive. 😂🤎 I'm especially into chocolate brown, East-West shapes, oversized shoulder bags and anything with ...
THIS is how you fake an expensive outfit. 👀🤎 The slim shape + brown faux leather gives that minimalist designer-bag look without needing designer-bag money. I'd carry this with literally every outfit above.
MANGO Faux Leather Shoulder Bag (Women)
Wait because this one is giving vintage designer find. 😭🤎 The bowling-style shape and distressed brown finish make it look way more interesting than a basic shoulder bag. And if it's still on sale when you click? Even better.
MANGO Faux Leather Shoulder Bag (Women)
Chocolate brown has me in a chokehold this fall. 🍫😭 The structured shape + buckle detail makes this look so polished. This with jeans, boots and a fitted brown top? Yeahhhh.
MANGO Balboa Shoulder Bag (Women)
Under $40 and giving fall Pinterest bag. 🤎 The soft shape is what got me. It has that relaxed/slouchy look that's cute with casual outfits but still looks intentional. Perfect when you don't want a super-structured purse.
H&M Drawstring-detail Shoulder Bag (Women)
The texture makes this look $$$. 👀 The woven detail + curved shape makes this one look way more interesting than a basic brown bag. I'd keep the outfit simple and let this be the piece everybody asks about.
