Sometimes I’ll splurge on great designer pieces, but I’m also always on the hunt for elevated pieces at more affordable price points. Since it’s my job as a fashion editor to know what is on the market, I’m always looking for the best new drops.

Ahead, I’m highlighting some of my latest finds. From minimal sandals and sleek sunglasses to polished swimsuits and anti-trend dresses, I’ve put together an edit of the affordable pieces I would add to my cart immediately.
