If looking luxe without spending all of your money is your main objective, you probably already know that Zara, Mango, and H&M are three of the best places to shop. Now that we’re in the throes of summer (with fall just around the corner), I’ve been looking for versatile and chic items that will easily see me through this season and into the next in utmost style.
I’ve ransacked the three sites to bring you 40 chic finds that look expensive but are far from it. From effortlessly elegant linen separates to sleek sandals and striking silhouettes, keep scrolling for the items that look pure luxury but all clock in at under $150.
