Keep scrolling to check out the high-end-feeling trends the fashion crowd is embracing at the moment, complete with shopping inspiration.

1. Sweater-Vests

Sweater-vests could be considered a trendy basic at this point because that perfect pick can pair well with a range of outfits. This piece feels high-concept and quite elevated for the season.

2. Modern Tailoring

Of-the-moment tailoring in slouchier silhouettes can look quite expensive given the polished feel. And yep, there is a smattering of strong options at Zara—from blazers to trousers—that don't cost a fortune.

3. Forward Denim

If you're looking for fashion-forward jeans, consider a sleek pair in a looser or straight-leg style. Many of these cuts look very high-end.

4. Knit Sets

Coordinating knit sets look quite luxe. Whether it's a bra-and-cardigan set or a matching sweater and trousers, the plush nature and fashionable design make the under-$70 pieces look so expensive.

5. Bold Bodysuits

You can't go wrong with elevated basics like bold bodysuits. Pair a high-end-looking style like this (which is under $20) with your go-to pair of jeans or a skirt, and you'll have a posh ensemble.
