For all the shopping and dreaming about shopping I do, I've actually been having a hard time justifying spending a lot of money on clothes. This is definitely a new thing for me. Maybe it's because my social life has dwindled, or it could be that I'm mostly wearing loungewear these days, but the good news is I've still been shopping (just a lot less). The perks of being stuck at home have turned me into quite the deal hunter, and this time of year is full of really, really good deals. So I've compiled a list of all the must-have winter pieces I found on Walmart that look way pricier than $73. Now you, too, can enjoy some guilt-free shopping before the holidays kick off.
Tops & Sweaters
Am I the only one who's still not over tie-dye?
This sweater looks way more expensive than it is.
I don't think I've ever been so obsessed with a white button-down.
Wearing this pullover is essentially wearing a blanket. (A very stylish one, that is.)
I don't think I'll ever get sick of balloon-sleeve sweaters.
See? Throwing in a cropped version for good measure.
Can we please just take a moment for this color?
The back!
Cardigans & Jackets
How chic would this look layered over a slip dress?
Everyone needs a faux-fur animal-print jacket.
A waffle-knit cardigan will never get old, and this one would look great styled with a pair of high-waisted jeans and gold accessories.
Your winter wardrobe isn't complete if you don't own a plaid boyfriend blazer.
Okay, really? This jacket looks like it's 10 times its price.
Shackets are the new jackets.
The coziest cardigan there ever was.
The perfect jacket for an L.A. winter.
Dresses & Bottoms
A winter floral moment is always a good idea.
I can see myself wearing this with a chunky sweater and over-the-knee boots.
Make it chic but cozy.
$27 for a good pair of high-waist jeans? Yes, please.
And for when you don't want to wear jeans, these are your next-best bet.
One of my favorite winter outfit formulas? A sweater dress and over-the-knee boots.
I'll never regret a polka-dot purchase.
I'm a sucker for a white winter outfit.
Shoes & Accessories
Take it from someone who owns a number of beaded purses: they are never this affordable.
Love the Western details on these booties.
I love a good matching beanie and scarf.
A faux-croc handbag is the easiest way to make your outfit look more expensive.
If there's one shoe style you should invest in for winter, make it a chunky lug-sole boot.
