I’m a Fashion Editor, Here Are 5 Budget-Friendly Items I’m Buying for Winter

We drop new pieces from our Who What Wear line several times a season, but our recent drops from the winter collection might have to be my favorite. From faux leather pants to elevated loungewear, it was hard to pick just five to add to my cart. Below, I relayed the items I'll be integrating into my wardrobe this season not only for their style but because they'll easily pair with a variety of outfits. The best part, you ask? They're all very budget-friendly.

Despite nothing being over $50 in these picks, I added outfit inspiration to show that these items look way more expensive than they actually are. Our favorite fashion girls show the best ways you can integrate these pieces into your winter wardrobe.

This sweater doesn't have to only be dressed down, as you can see here. Pairing it with leather will make it for a comfortable yet forward ensemble.

In my book, this deep shade of mustard pairs so well with the neutrals in your closet.

Leather pants are the ultimate staple to have this season, but if you've overworn your black pair this olive green option will give you plenty more outfit options.

A knit dress is the easiest and comfiest way to look chic.

After interning at Who What Wear in 2019, she found her way to the team after graduating from LIM College in 2022 with a fashion media degree. She's also spent time writing and working for publications such as Fashionista, Coveteur, and Nylon, but she always knew that Who What Wear was where she was meant to be. When she's on the job, she's perusing runway shows, analyzing the latest thing fellow Gen Zers are up to on the internet, and sharing what she can about the modest-fashion market. You can also catch her dabbling in entertainment, talking about the costume choices of the latest Netflix series or diving deeper into how the plotline affects the viewers in a myriad of ways. Lastly, she likes to create content for Who What Wear's TikTok. Her personal time is spent doing similar but also different things—deep diving into almost every new TV show (Bridgerton, Gilmore Girls, and Stranger Things are favorites), planning her next local getaway (whenever that may be), and reading the latest Emily Henry or Sally Rooney novel in one sitting.
