If you're reading this, you probably appreciate how much Who What Wear's fashion editors love to shop. And they're good at it. Between scouring the new arrivals section or finding the best affordable items, if it's worth adding to your wardrobe, we've probably written about it. But it's not just that we know how to find a great deal; we know how to figure out what's worth buying. From determining the season's most significant trends to easy outfit ideas, we have you covered.
And while Who What Wear editors are certified experts, that doesn't mean we don't occasionally learn a thing or two from our favorite shoppers—you! In fact, pulling the receipts from the most popular fashion pieces that our readers (and, let's be honest, staffers) actually purchased over the past month tells us a lot. Sure, some micro-trends pop off occasionally, but when it comes to what you're really buying, affordable anti-trend staples are where it's at.
Wondering which pieces were the most purchased last month among our readers? Keep scrolling to see the 30 most popular fashion items, all under $300.
