I Gave Myself a $100 Budget—These Are the Chicest Fashion and Beauty Items in My Cart
Including brands like Almina Concept, Swedish Stockings, Dries Van Noten, Dior, and more.

As a Who What Wear editor, I spend a lot of time online shopping. Sometimes I even like to set parameters for myself to see what I can find, and today's self-invented challenge was to shop with a budget of $100 and under.
My mind first went to wardrobe staples that will get the most wear, including fall basics for the season ahead. I've been loving my $38 Baby Rib 3/4 Sleeve Boatneck Top in navy from Los Angeles Apparel and want to get a black one as well—it's the perfect weight for crisp, cool weather. This made me think about Almina Concept's $68 High V-Neck Tank, which I've also had in my cart. Starting in September and lasting until it gets too cold, I pretty much live in tights from Swedish Stockings, so I'll be ordering a few new pairs from them as well.
For beauty: the cult-favorite nail polish brand Celisse recently launched its first-ever red, and I can't wait to try it; I keep hearing everyone, from my facialist to our beauty editor Kaitlyn McLintock, sing the praises of Prequel's affordable glycerin cleanser; and I've been loving m.ph by Mary Phillips's The Overliner Lip Liner Pencil, so I'd like to try the Lip Ciggy Sheer Lipstick Balm from the line as well. I've also been obsessing over the Dries Van Noten lipstick packaging. Since I love a good bath, I want HigherDose's $39 Serotonin Soak Magnesium Bath Salts, and the $95 Yves Durif Vented Brush and $58 Dior Foundation Stick have both been on my wish list as well.
