Today I thought I would share with you some of my favorite wardrobe items, all under $100.
Oxydo sunglasses. I love sunglasses – all kinds, colors and shapes. I’ve been very happy to see the arrival of lots of stylish, less expensive options come on the market – think Le Specs, Quay Australia, and my current favorite, Oxydo. I’ve currently been wearing this pair (the 1078) and its a great lighter taupe color for summer. And, I also really like the little zip pouch the sunglasses come with – softer than those big bulky designer ones, easier to fit in a smaller bag, but still with some padding.
Gap Fitted Boyfriend Oxford shirts. These are my go to white shirts – I’ve tried a bunch from other brands, but haven’t found any that strike the same combination of fit and comfort. I wear them all year round, with shorts, underneath coats, even over a swimsuit (in a larger size I bought for that purpose). And hey, Carolina Herrera loves hers too!
Ivanka Trump “Chic” flats. I’ve already mentioned these flats in earlier posts, so I’ll just pop in and say that they’re still going strong, and a great value at just under $100. The leopard ones are running out, but you can also see the other colors currently available here.
Everlane Street Fleece jacket. This is $70, and its basically a great item in the section of my wardrobe called “a little bit better than my favorite ratty old hoodie”. I grab it when I need another layer and I’m doing a quick errand, going for a casual walk with friends, or just hanging out in the house.
Everlane Ottoman sweatshirt. Just $45, and another item in my “better than a hoodie” rotation, that I wear for very similar occasions as the Street Fleece bomber above.
PJ Salvage thermal pajama sets. I have multiples of these – the more embarrassing the print, the better in my book. The best part is you can usually find these on sale (the ones I linked are more than 70% (!) off but almost sold out). Another set in a solid print (you can wear these in front of other people without the same embarrassment I face in my cat pajamas), are 50% off/$43.
What are some of your under $100 favorites?
