I Recently Went Shopping for Spring with a $100 Budget—Here Are the Most Stylish Items I Discovered.
Although we’re not quite experiencing daily temperatures of 70° and above yet, warm weather is finally approaching in New York City as we enter early April. Consequently, I've been considering my spring wardrobe and what additions are worth including on my shopping list right now. I've set a guideline for myself: everything I select must be priced at $100 or less. Capris are a staple for me in the spring, so I’m thinking about the $39 Out From Under Bec Cropped Foldover Kick Flare Pants. I also enjoy knee-length skirts, such as the $91 Rat Boi Midi Slip Skirt. For footwear, I apologize to those who dislike flip-flops, but sometimes a pair of Havaianas Slim Flip-Flops, priced at just $30, is a necessity. Other notable finds include a nylon bag from a French brand I recently discovered called Kabas, along with items from Cou Cou and Levi's. Naturally, I made sure to include selections from retailers recognized for their dependable basics, such as Zara, J.Crew, and Gap. Below, you’ll find all the items I discovered.
