Confession: I get more excited by the idea of making a few affordable clothing purchases rather than saving up for one bigger investment piece. While I definitely advise both kinds of shopping, I can't deny how fun it is to purchase a cheap thrill that can quickly refresh my wardrobe without totally throwing off my budget. Being able to order a cute new top and take myself out to dinner? It's a win-win in my book.

But you're all fashion people like I am, so I bet you understand how time-consuming it can be to scroll through your favorite affordable retailers in search of the best under-$100 items. Not all affordable fashion items are made equal, though. I handpicked the clothing, bags, shoes, and accessories that will look cool now, next season, and beyond because cheap doesn't have to mean it has an expiration date.

Fret not, dear shopper, as I've scoured the World Wide Web from top to bottom and found 40 affordable fashion buys that I'm crowning the best of the internet. From the festive sandals on offer at Mango to the cutest mini bags at Topshop and the best shoes from Zara, keep scrolling to shop the ultimate fast-fashion edit.

Reformation Jem Bodysuit ($68)

This reminds me of Bottega Veneta, and that's why I like it.

AFRM Zadie Semi Sheer Turtleneck ($38)

Meet the best-selling turtleneck on Who What Wear, which comes in 10 colors.

The Line by K Kym Button-Embellished Ribbed Stretch Cotton-Jersey Bodysuit ($85)

So much better than the T-shirt you were about to reach for to pair with your jeans.

Simonett Mistu Top ($87)

I can't stop staring at this beautiful creation.

Song of Style Jasper Top in Chocolate Brown ($98)

I have a thing for backless tops right now.

NSF Clothing Moore Cotton Tee ($98)

From the boxy shape to the subtle distressing, this tee is pure perfection.

Wilfred Free Shrunken Cardigan ($88)

Yes, you need another cardigan when it looks this good.

H&M Jacquard-Knit Sweater ($30)

As a rule of thumb, I never say no to zebra and tiger prints.

Choosy Crosby St Dress ($75)

Party season is right around the corner—you'll want to wear this.

Scoop Slip Midi Dress Snake Print ($30)

I'm obsessed with snakeskin print right now, and I'm eyeing this affordable dress to nail the trend.

Topshop Vintage Floral Piped Midi Dress ($75)

The model has the right idea. Style this dress with platforms (preferably one of the below pairs).

Who What Wear Long Sleeve Front Button-Down Jacket ($55)

I've been wearing this jacket from our Who What Wear collection nonstop, and the compliments just keep rolling in. The tortoiseshell buttons and oversize sleeves are just a few of the things that I love about it.

Also available in more sizes.
