Promising reviews: "Love the pattern and how it comes in three different sizes. I have thick, medium-length hair and the large size holds my hair up just fine. Buy it!!" —Monica Aquino

6. A faux-shearling moto jacket so you can keep looking cool in the cold. This fuzzy bb pretty much makes compliments a guarantee and no one will believe it was under $100!
Promising review: "This jacket is amazing. It looks expensive, is extremely comfortable and warm, yet not too hot. Seriously, I wore it in 60-degree weather and was not too hot. I wore it in -5-degree weather, yes that’s right, and I was comfortable. I wore it in my house, and I didn’t overheat. There’s something about the material. The lining does not shed or flatten. It’s thick and spongy like real shearling. It doesn’t really attract lint or hair or anything either. I just can’t say enough about this." —Huesitos
Get it from Amazon for $69.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 10 colors).
7. A classic plaid mini skirt because...wait, can you hear that? I think it's the sound of this cutie calling out to be paired with over-the-knee boots and then be posted on your feed.
8. Fun floral leggings so even your gym and loungewear looks will be cuter than ever before.
9. A tennis bracelet that could pass for real-deal diamonds — trust me. This beauty will look so stunning on its own or stacked with other bracelets, and you don't have to worry as much about losing it as you would a splurgier version!
I just got this beauty in my Christmas stocking and I am BLOWN away. It looks so, so classy, shiny, and REAL!!!! I am someone who wears everything from expensive jewelry to the cheapest of costume stuff, and I'm treasuring this like I do my designer pieces. Like all tennis bracelets, the clasp is a bit pesky at first, but after just a few minutes of practice you should definitely be able to get it on and off by yourself, and it it feels secure. 100/10 recommend as a gift for yourself or anyone you love!!!!
Promising reviews: "Soooo pretty. It’s 100% a Swarovski [alternative] for so cheap. Looks exactly like the photo and I wear it every day." —Trysten Walters
Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in two styles, threecolors, and three sizes).
10. Cool croc-effect knee-high boots because it's time for us all to enter our Reputation (Taylor's Version) era.

Get them from Lulus for $62 (available in sizes 6–10 and in three colors).
11. An on-trend corset top over 5,500 gorgeous reviewers have rated 5 stars. No wonder, since this will make everything from jeans to shorts to skirts look photo-shoot-ready. It would be 🔥🔥🔥 layered under a blazer, too!
Promising reviews: "This top is so cute on and is supportive enough for large chest sizes to wear a strapless bra. I am a 38DD and the 12–14 worked perfectly for me." —Bianca
"Great quality. I loved it so much. Super sturdy and comfy. No risk of wrinkles or it coming down. Will be getting in other colors." —crystal narain
Get it from Amazon for $31.99+ (available in sizes 00–20 and in 16 colors and prints).
12. A delightful striped and floral sweater that does all the work of mixing patterns for you, so all you have to do is toss it on with some jeans.
Get it from Francesca's for $37.50 (originally $50; available in sizes S–L).
13. A scrunched baguette bag from Insta-famous It label JW Pei, which possesses the magical ability to make absolutely any outfit you carry it with look Fashion Week-ready.
This hip label is Chinese American- and family-owned and makes its gorgeous bags with vegan leather and recycled plastic!
Buzzfeed Shopping editor Kayla Boyd has this and raves "When I started seeing this new 'It bag' all over Instagram, I knew I had to have it. What shocked me was the fact that it's less than $100! The quality is amazing — the vegan leather is sturdy, it has a nice faux suede lining, and the magnetic closure actually stays closed. The adorable 'scrunchie' design is such a great way to jazz up an outfit. Plus, it's a great size for the necessities like my phone, wallet, keys, mask, and lip gloss. I definitely plan on buying more colors!"
Promising review: "I needed more 'date' bags as most of my bags are huge. I ordered this and it's exquisite. Soft and not too small. Big enough for a small purse, my keys, lipstick, extra face mask, and iPhone. Highly recommend." —Techy
Get it from Amazon for $79.99+ (available in 31 styles).
14. A gold faux-leather wrap mini skirt that's so much more exciting than the denim or neutral version you've been wearing the past few years.
15. Super cool woven platform sneakers to ~elevate~ your 'fits in every sense. And reviewers are swearing by the comfort, so you'll wanna rock these beauties basically every day.
Promising reviews: "I love these! So comfortable! I have repurchased the white. Also got brown and black! I have my eye on blue and beige. They're so comfortable, I've worn them to Disneyland all day. The only issue, which isn't that big a deal, is that the laces regularly come untied. I just tie those bunny ears again so they don't untie! I'm in between sizes and was able to size down. Also I have a wider foot and they are not too tight." —Jaime
"LOVE. Some of the comfiest shoes I’ve ever owned. Seriously. I want in allll the colors!" —mkott
Get them from Target for $42.99 (available in sizes 5–12 and in six colors).
16. Chic, somehow-only-$15 sunglasses that some folks say are comparable to a certain brand that rhymes with Shmay-Span. Pop these on with literally anything and you'll radiate chic celebrity vibes.
Promising review: "I am still in shock that these sunglasses were so nice. I bought them for the style and look (trendy yet comfortable) and figured the polarized label was a gimmick (polarized sunnies I’ve bought in the past have been well over $200). I was going on a trip and needed some sunglasses I wouldn’t cry over if I didn’t return with them (always lose mine). These sunglasses were packaged beautifully. They came with a polarized tester! They passed the test as well as my Ray-Bans I knew were polarized, but when I kept switching back and forth between these and my Ray-Bans I’m pretty sure the lenses on these are even CLEARER. Maybe because they were brand new, but I was so impressed!! They are so cute and stylish while also so comfortable with an amazing lens. BUY THESE!! Super-good deal, you won’t be disappointed! They also seem so sturdy, so I’m hoping they will last me a while. Update: I still have these sunglasses and I’m still obsessed!!! ONLY issue I have had with them is the lens glue is kinda melting down but I think it’s because I left them out alone in Arizona 110-degree weather, just boiling them out there. Still look amazing, still so strong. I’ve sat on them 8,574,927 times and they are still alive. Amazing. I’ll never buy expensive sunnies again." —liz
Get them from Amazon for $14.99 (available in 18 colors).
17. A fuzzy cropped polo and skirt set if your vibe is "minimal, but make it quirky." Just add a red lip, chunky hoop earrings, and booties (or heck, even just a pair of white sneakers) and you could be mistaken for a model off duty.
18. A plaid Peter Pan collar dress giving maximum Lexi Howard vibes — I've never even seen Euphoria and I know that much. This cutie can be super sweet or cool and edgy depending on how you style it; personally, I'd rock it with combat boots!
Promising review: "I recently bought a whole bunch of dresses on Amazon, and I gotta say, this one was my favorite of all of them! :) I just love plaid, and this dress with the Peter Pan collar actually looks very similar to an expensive designer dress I had been eyeing! Now I have a budget-friendly look. This dress is very lightweight (I do wish it was a little thicker, but no worries!). I added a petticoat under mine for some extra flare (but it looks good without one, too!). I also added a black bow at the neck for a school uniform feel. Adore it!!" —libbyfranc
Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 10 styles).
19. A fuzzy fleece bucket hat for anyone who's sick of winter beanies. This trendy pick has an adjustable inner drawstring so you can get your perfect fit...to complete your perfect 'fit.
Promising review: "Very warm! I had previously purchased this same hat in black and loved it so much I just bought it again in white. I love that it is adjustable for a perfect fit. It's machine washable and -dryable...what could be better?" —Deezee
Get it from Amazon for $17.99 (available in six colors).
20. Sheer bow-pattern socks with — *gasp* — extra bows on the calves! Let these peek out of boots, sneakers, or heels for a super trendy twist on an outfit you've worn a zillion times.
21. An incredibly affordable and cool pair of combat boots that are a super convincing Dr. Martens alternative if you're in the market for a totally trusty everyday boot without the splurge. Plus, the side zip means no constantly undoing and redoing the laces!
Promising review: "RUN DON'T WALK!! My friend and I went to a music festival with our significant others. She wore real Doc Martens, and I wore these boots. My boyfriend is darn near a shoe expert, and he thought these were legitimate Doc Martens! They held up perfectly and were so comfortable even after 12-hour days full of walking, dancing, and standing. Very easy to clean. 10/10 recommended!!" —Karolina Muscadine
Get them from Amazon for $33.29 (available in women's sizes 5.5–10 and four styles).
22. A posh pleated button-down matching set if you're looking for an effortless way to get all dolled up in a matching ensemble. This does basically all the work for you — just add cool sneaks or heels and earrings.
Promising review: "I don’t normally leave reviews but this set is so much more beautiful in person! I didn’t stop getting compliments on how cute it is and where I got it from. Super comfortable and lightweight. Don’t hesitate and just get it! Perfect for day to nighttime." —Natalie

Get it from Petal & Pup for $59 (available in sizes (XS–XL).
24. Bold golden geometric earrings for a literal and figurative ~twist~ on your go-to gold hoops. Warning: these will steal the scene!
Pro tip: I like wearing these patches to help heavier earrings be more comfortable!
Promising review: "Super cute. I've worn these at a couple of events now and I always get compliments on them. They are the slightest bit heavy but I am very sensitive to this and I'm still able to wear them for the full event without wanting to take them off." —Alhambra
Get them from Amazon for $7.66.
26. A chic vintage-inspired ring you can make your signature piece. I get compliments on my daily rings all the time, and I think they really add extra interest and ~fashion~ vibes to an OOTD.
27. A designer-inspired faux leather double-circle belt for an upgrade you (and your fave denim) will love so much you'll wanna put a ring on it.
It's got over 10,000 5-star ratings!
Promising review: "This is my favorite belt! It's perfect with jeans and I get so many compliments on it. I love that the double-ring is sort of designer-inspired, but not a complete knockoff of the Gucci belt. I highly recommend! I am typically a medium and the medium was perfect." —Everyday Teacher Style
Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in 10 styles).
28. A dreamy tulle midi skirt, aka the fashion item you're probably already fantasizing about twirling in. Tuck in a sleek top and add heels to make it dressy, of course, but also don't be afraid to pair it with graphic tees, moto jackets, sneakers, and combat boots! Life in tulle — it's fantastic.
Promising reviews: "This is great evening/party attire. This is a great A-line circle skirt. I bought the black version for a holiday party. I got many compliments. I’m a size 18 and bought the 3X. It fit perfectly, and hit me just below the knee and had excellent poof!" —Margeaux Chavez
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–5X and in 44 colors).

Get it from Shopbop for $495 (available in French sizes 32–44).
30. Minimalist ear cuffs to add a little edge to your OOTD that you're sure to fall in ~lobe~ with. IDK about you, but I'm definitely ear for a way to upgrade your jewelry game without a new piercing.
They're handmade in Israel, and the two styles look very cool worn together, like above!
Promising review: "Love these ear cuffs. I am 62-years-old and do not want to get another piercing at the top of my ear, so this works out great. I don't even feel the earring there." —Shelly
Get one for $8.92 (available in two styles and two metals) or the set of two for $14.24 (available in two metals), both from Benittamoko on Etsy.
31. A pair of cow-print pants that'll finally mooootivate you to try out this super fun trend. Now this is what I call ranch dressing.
Promising review: "I am my younger self's icon. WARNING: only buy these pants if you are comfortable receiving compliments from groups of middle school girls. Also the occasional mooing from your boyfriend. :) These pants are absolutely lovely. The fabric is more canvas like than it is jean, but it totally works with the style." —Maria
Get it from Amazon for $49.99+ (available in sizes XXS–XXL and 23 styles).
32. A 3D-floral-embellished denim dress I legit can't believe isn't by some high-end designer. Only purchase this if you're ready for all eyes to be on you at the next party you attend.

33. A beyond-glam faux-fur jacket ~fur~ anyone who loves to feel fancy but also insists on being cozy 24/7. It'll look so fashion-blogger-level fabulous tossed over a fancy dress *or* with jeans and heeled boots.
Promising review: "I love this jacket and I have gotten so many compliments. It does not look cheap at all. It can be worn with an elegant dress or dressed down with jeans. It is super soft and warm! My only complaint is the sleeves are a little long on me, but I just rolled them under and you can't tell at all." —Peggy Vetter
Get it from Amazon for $55.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 13 colors).
34. A super sweet heart-embroidered mini shirtdress that would even be cute popped over your fave leggings for a chill at-home V-day date!

35. Posh wide-leg pants ready to take crop tops and pretty much every top you'd usually tuck into jeans to new, Parisian-chic heights.
Some reviewers recommend sizing up!
Promising review: "New wardrobe staple! Awesome pants! The quality would make me think they cost more like $60–$90. I bought the tan ones and after wearing them a couple of times went back a week later and bought them in black. Now, I’m 5’6”, and normally when I buy this kind of pants they end up being wayyy too long, but these are the perfect height with 1"–3” heels! They do drag a tiny bit with flats, but I prefer small heels anyway, and it’s not a major tripping hazard or anything. Also I wear a size 10–12 normally, but ordered these in 12–14 both times. I probably could’ve gotten away with ordering a 10, but I’m glad I ordered a size up, because it is loose and has some extra room at the waist. Highly recommend! Buy different colors!" —Stephanie
Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2X, with some colors also available in short lengths, and in 33 colors and prints).
36. A plaid belted shacket-esque coat for anyone tired of having their cute clothes be hidden by their outwear on chilly days. This beauty is an outfit all in itself!
Promising review: "Such a cute coat!!! Love it! I’ve gotten so many compliments!! I would definitely buy it if you’re thinking about it!" —Love It13579
Get it from Express for $107.20 (available in sizes XS–XL).
37. A gorgeous metallic-star-print dress you'll want to twirl in all the way to the moon and back. Get a couple of the fun colors and make your semiformal occasion wardrobe truly ~out of this world~.
Some reviewers say it runs a bit roomy!
Promising review: "I must say, I was very pleasantly surprised to find this is quite a nice dress for the price! The beautiful gold stars all over it are raised and catch the light really nicely. It fit me great, possibly a touch on the bigger side, but I wouldn't size down. Since it's nicer than expected, it's a bit more formal than I thought it would be. It's a pretty good value, and I would recommend." —Sarah Allison
Get it from Amazon for $34.97+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and in 30 styles).
38. A super cool, incredibly detailed literal camera bag with a rainbow of colorful gems that will make it complement every outfit, plus a gorgeous, adjustable butterfly-print strap in case it wasn't already enough of a statement.
And the Betsey Johnson fangirl in me is freaking out of the black-and-white photo charm of the iconic designer on the side!!!
Get it from Betsey Johnson for $118.
