While Net-a-Porter is synonymous with high-end designers and all things luxury, as someone who scours the site nearly every day as a part of their job, I know that it is also a trove of more-affordable finds. Whether it’s a Saint Laurent belt at an approachable price point or a piece from one of their many contemporary brands such as Loulou Studio—who’s responsible for the traffic-stopping, under-$400 dress you see above—there’s always something, if not many things, for someone looking to spend, but not spend too much.

Those types of in-between steals are just what I’ve honed in on today for this fall-ready roundup. From pants and sweaters to boots and belts, below you’ll find thirty-three elegant buys that work within a $500 budget or less and have you looking like a million bucks while you’re at it. To see what made the list, simply keep scrolling.

Editor-at-Large

Since starting as an intern back in 2013, Nicole Akhtarzad Eshaghpour has held several roles here at Who What Wear, and she is currently Editor-at-Large. It was a less expected route, seeing as she was graduating from business school at USC when this all began, but it has turned out to be the best one for her. Fast-forward to 2020, and she's moved to NYC from her hometown of Beverly Hills and spends her workdays a little differently from when she was an intern starting out. Currently, she focuses on a weekly mélange of shopping content. As far as her personal style goes, she's largely drawn to classic pieces and neutral basics but will always make an exception for something colorful, printed, or bejeweled as long as it's deemed worthy enough. After all, the only thing she loves more than a good party is dressing up for one. On weekdays, she can usually be found at home eating something delicious for dinner and trying to force her husband to watch 90 Day Fiancé.
