34 Items From H&M, Madewell, and COS That Give "I Shop at The Row" Energy
Due to the nature of my job, I spend a lot of time analyzing runway shows and scrolling through images of the exceptionally dressed on Getty and Instagram. Because of these tasks, I'm able to look at a page of new arrivals and sort through which kinds of picks stand out and are comparable to the stylish items the most fashionable would outfit themselves in. For example, my most recent internet search has consisted of Harry Styles and Taylor Russell matching in The Row. Thus, my market search led to items that could create such looks at a more affordable price point.
Rather than gatekeep these finds, I figured I'd share them in case anyone else is looking for specific pieces for spring that encapsulate the look of an expensive wardrobe. In this case, they're from COS, H&M, and Madewell specifically. The new arrivals from these three retailers have been impressing me the most as of late—the proof is in all the links I've been sharing with my team, family, and friends. (Just yesterday, I shared a satin top from COS with a friend looking for something to wear for headshots, and she immediately purchased it.) In this roundup, you'll find elegant flats, simple yet striking midi dresses, and elevated trench coats. Barrel-leg trousers, leather crossbody bags, and mesh sandals will also make an appearance—basically, everything that would be alluring to those who stalk the fan-made The Row Instagram accounts daily. Keep scrolling to shop.
These pointed-toe pumps may seem simple, but they will instantly elevate any outfit.
I'm always impressed by The Row's smart use of color, and the red looks were my favorite from the S/S 24 collection.
With the right layering, you can easily create an outfit that looks straight off the runway. (I'd love to see this knit dress worn over relaxed trousers.)
Warm-weather days are approaching, and you're going to want a comfortable linen shirt in your wardrobe when they do.
You don't have to spend hundreds of dollars on interesting jewelry for your collection.
The Row had a pair of fishnet flats on its spring 2024 runway, and this COS brings the same energy.
The surprising category that I'm most impressed with from COS right now has to be the handbags.
While I love the look of the matching set, the styling options with these pants are endless. I'd personally love to see it with a loose poplin shirt.
I love simple and comfortable pieces that still offer an element of stylish interest. These crinkle pants master all three effortlessly.
Master the vibe of Meghan Markle's summer style without spending like it.
Minimalist staples like this square-neck maxi dress are especially The Row coded.
If you have these pants in all four colors, your work wardrobe will be all set. Just mix and match weekly!
After studying the site for years, I have a knack for predicting which items will sell out on H&M. These shoes are definitely going to be sought-after.
If I wanted to wear something that screamed chic, I'd wear these pants exactly how they've been styled above.
Simple, yes, but these slingback flats are still incredibly stylish. You'll be reaching for them often.
Switch things up from that black blazer in your rotation with this off-white one.
As someone who loses my sunglasses often, I can't be trusted with an expensive pair. Luckily, H&M has affordable ones that still look incredibly cool.
All your essentials will be available to you with ease in this hands-free crossbody bag.
Don't have the budget for designer jeans? Don't fret, because these Madewell jeans are just as good.
Believe it or not, I'm still on the hunt for a perfect poplin shirt. I think this one checks all my boxes.
This buttery yellow shade trends every spring, and I never seem to get sick of it. It's gorgeous.
And if you already have a trusty pair of black flats, the Gretas come in mesh fabrication as well.
This bag offers the same functionality as The Row's viral Banana bag but for $2000 less!
Give your oversize blazer some rest this season and opt for a structured and cropped one like this.
Another perfect way to tackle the mesh shoe trend—in sandal form!
Burgundy is the luxurious color many designers picked for their handbags in the S/S 24 collections, and this one looks just as luxe as they did.
