It's my job as associate shopping director to scour all our favorite brands and retailers from top to bottom on a daily basis to find cool, of-the-moment pieces that are worthy of your wallet. I am constantly saving and bookmarking items to share, whether it's because they feel fresh, trendy, and versatile; feature exquisite details; or are really well priced. While I'm tempted to gatekeep many of these stylish gems that I know will sell out fast, I find more joy in sharing them with you, our dear readers.
Today, I'm bringing you a whole host of chic and affordable finds, from trendy flats to cool accessories that will become some of your favorites this summer. The best part? They're all under $50.
