Wait, These Under-$50 Buys From Amazon Are Blowing My Mind
It's pretty easy to spend over $50 these days. Even an unassuming run to the grocery store can leave you with a groan-inducing receipt, and don't get us started on the rising cost of apartment rent and other necessary living expenses. Inflation is just one of those life things we all must deal with, but thankfully when it comes to our wardrobes, you can still find that don't make your checking account cringe.
Don't have the time to scour the internet and unearth these budget-friendly treasures? Worry not, friends—we've done that for you. Taking to Amazon, we searched high and low for the cutest trend pieces to wear all spring and summer long that all ring in at under $50. From a cool tie-dye tee that might as well be from Proenza Schouler to a pair of simple, sleek sandals you can wear with literally everything in your closet, the 18 items below are worth taking a gander at.
Swap out your ball cap for a bucket hat and finish with a printed dress and sneakers. Weekend brunch outfit = sorted.
Will the sneakers trend ever let up? As of now, it seems the answer is a resounding no.
These feel like something the Olsens would wear, and that's reason enough to buy.
Tired of your knuckle busters and looking for something new? Try a pinky ring.
Hair clips are one of the most viral accessory trends of 2019—join the bandwagon with these tortoiseshell barrettes.
You're going to want a piece of tie-dye in your closet this year; why not make it a classic tee?
The seashell trend is alive and well; give it a go by way of this charming anklet.
Florals and gingham are the two most charming spring prints, which is why this gingham blouse is a smart choice. Finish with a pair of wide-leg white pants and sleek sandals.
Finish with a plain white tee and strappy low-heel sandals for the perfect weekend look.
You may be investing in a few sandals trends for spring, but you can't go wrong with a clean, classic pair.
Style these flattering straight-leg jeans with everything from a linen button-down to a silk camisole—the wash and silhouette is pleasantly versatile.
Southwestern-inspired styles are going to be huge this spring; embrace the heritage with a turquoise-bedecked belt buckle.
Every spring wardrobe should have at least one printed silk scarf. Tie it in your hair, around your neck, on your bag handle, or through your belt loops—the versatility is glorious.
Yep, the most viral item of 2019 is $3 and from Amazon—have you bought it yet?
