I look at a lot of stuff on a daily basis while I'm doing market research for my various stories. During my product hunts, I always find a smattering of solid items under $100, especially because I routinely turn to retailers like Nordstrom, H&M, and J.Crew for standout items.
Below, you'll find an edit of the affordable items I recently spotted that I think are winners because they have the power to become new wardrobe staples. As a preview, I'm referring to pieces such as roomy sweaters you may want to live in, pretty fall dresses, elevated basics like oversize shirting, and more. Keep scrolling for shopping inspiration.
