    If you're funds are running a lil' low, keep up your bougie lifestyle with some blinged-out press-on nails and a gorgeous tweed dress.

    Promising review: "No joke, these are pretty much exactly the same as my Skims lounge set for half the price. The pants graze the tops of my feet even when I wear them high-waisted at my belly button, so I think they’re plenty long. The robe is like wearing a blanket, but still looks put together. Anyway, I’m back here to buy a second color because I loved them so much!" —Jenna

    Get the three-piece set from Amazon for $54.99 (available in sizes S–XL and in 30 colors).

    2. A set of gorgeous human hair clip-in extensions to give your hair more length and volume so you can 🎶 whip your hair back and forth 🎶. Reviewers compare 'em to Bellami and say these are almost the same or even better. They look so real everyone will think they're ~all natural~. And for the price? They *def* beat getting your hair done at the salon.

    A set comes with seven pieces and the colors?! *Amazing.* From balayage to platinum blonde to ombre, you're sure to find your perfect match.

    Promising reviews: "I was super shocked at how nicely these were able to blend with my hair. I have 4c hair with a silk press. I’ve had them in for three days — I wanted an easy go-to look, and I wanted some highlights. I bought TWO SETS for volume. I love them. They don’t tangle up in the neck, and they stay soft! Love this hair." —Jermaine & Cardell Williams

    "I have ordered from this company three times, and I am obsessed. I currently use a mix of the platinum and the blended blonde, and it matches my hair perfectly. The price is unbeatable. My current sets I have had for over a year (and wear 3–4 days a week). Highly recommend!" —Cass Smith

    Get them from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in 10 lengths and 38 colors).

    3. A simple tennis bracelet that'll have you looking seriously ~iced out~. This'll have people thinking that you splurged at Swarovski and didn't think twice about it. Now this is what I call bougie!

    Here's what BuzzFeed Shopping editor Katy Herman has to say about them: "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 review: "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, a two-pack, and three colors and sizes). 

    4. A pair of wide-leg trousers for a "boss" vibe. They'll elevate any basic look with their pleats and flowy hem. It's hard to find any good quality pants for under $50 these days — well, except for these!

    Promising review: "Perfection in a pant. I own the red, the black, the mocha, and I have the brown short and the check and the olive in my cart. In the summer, I wear them with a tank or a crop top. In the winter, I toss some yoga pants under them and wear with a sweater. They are basically classy pajama pants, IN THE BEST WAY POSSIBLE. Comfy, loose, breezy. Dress them up with a blouse or a blazer. Dress them down with a band tee and platform chucks. People stop me on the street to tell me about my style, but it's legit these pants! They don't wrinkle. They wash and dry beautifully. Am I careful with laundering them? Nope. They don't have hair cling. They look expensive. They make me feel like I have my life together when I wear them. Buy. The. Pants." —Kate

    Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2X regular and short and 33 colors). 

    5. A set of press-on acrylic nails because as much as you love getting a full set, those numbers really add up *cries in $20 tip.* You can just stick these babies on without spending over $10 and you'll have the most gorgeous, bedazzled nails ever!

    You'll get 24 pieces in 12 different sizes, a mini file, a glass nail file, a wooden stick, a tutorial card and a sheet of glue stickers. You can use a top coat to seal rhinestones so they don't fall off as easily! Reviewers suggest using nail glue to apply them.

    Promising reviews: "Very durable and so pretty! I got a lot of compliments. Get it, you won’t regret it. Be a baddie on a budget. 👌🏼👌🏼" —Kathie

    "Love these nails, very sturdy and elegant for the price. Looks just like you walked out of a salon for 10% of the price. I will buy again." —NisaSimone

    Get a set of 24 pieces from Amazon for $9.99 (available in 16 designs).

    6. Or a gel polish kit if you refuse to use regular nail polish but don't particularly feel like hurting your bank account for a gel mani. Do your own luxe gel nails from home with so many fun colors to experiment with! Nail salon who?

    The kit includes an LED lamp dryer, 12 gorg gel polish colors, 16 pieces of nail art designs, manicure tools, base gel, and two top coats — matte and shiny. The company warns that allergic reactions can happen, so do a skin test before going forward with doing an entire mani.

    Promising review: "Lemme just start by saying — I never write Amazon reviews, but this nail kit deserves it. For years I have been sick and tired of spending $80+ to get my nails done only to walk out of the salon completely disappointed from having my cuticles cut and bleeding, polish missing most of my nail and the sides, or it chipping off the second I leave. Tonight I gave myself the cheapest yet quickest, most convenient, thorough, and beautiful manicure I’ve ever had! And I am not the patient, perfectionist type either — I usually hate doing my own nails. But this kit made it so simple, easy, and gave an absolutely beautiful finish. I had no mess-ups, and both hands took maybe 20 minutes?? I’m writing this review not even an hour later, so I can’t say for sure on how long it lasts, but I can tell you I’ve already cleaned the house, done dishes and laundry, and I have NO chips in the paint, so that’s a wonderful sign. I’m so excited for this kit and to save SO much money this year on doing my nails at home!!" —Bailey

    Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in 13 kits with different colored polishes).

    7. A cocktail ring set that'll probably strike up so much conversation because it's just plain gorgeous, shiny, jaw-dropping, bling-bling — shall I keep going?

    You can also break the two up and wear them separately!

    Promising review: "First let me say I LOVE THIS RING!!!! I wear it all the time. I've been wearing it for over a month now and in the beginning I tried to take it off when doing dishes, showering, and washing my hands. After about two weeks I just decided to leave it on and it has been fine. I never take it off, the ring is true to size. It's not too thin or thick, feels great on, and it is durable. The only con is that the stones can sometimes look cloudy. Other than that I love it couldn't be happier, it's great for the price and I am very pleased." —tracy k revels

    Get a set of two from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in four colors). 

    8. An elegant jumpsuit so you don't have to worry about putting an outfit together — just slip this on! Reviewers say that this 'fit looks more expensive than it really is.

    Promising review: "I am basically in love with this jumpsuit! I popped a black blazer on and yassssss! Legit love it! Can’t wait to roll up to work wearing this. Comfy like pajamas, super stylish, professional! It’s everything! Oh and the legs are actually long! I am basically in love with it! If you’re thinking about it, definitely get it." —MCGMCM

    Get it from Amazon for $39.99+ (available in sizes S–XXL and 31 prints). 

    9. A pair of retro-inspired sunglasses that look quite similar to Prada and will have you looking super ~sleek and chic~.

    Check them out on TikTok here.

    Promising review: "I had originally seen these pair of glasses on TikTok and was very eager in buying them and let me tell you they did NOT disappoint. They are very sturdy, fashionable, and look like a high-end pair of glasses." —Alejandra Larios

    Get a two-pack from Amazon for $14.95+ (available in 16 styles)

    10. retro-style baguette purse because there is no other purse worthy of holding your phone, wallet, and keys when you're out and about — except maybe a Birkin, but we won't go there...

    Promising review: "Gorgeous bag. The material is so easy to clean, it's beyond sturdy and looks very classy. The zipper pocket inside is great for storing things discreetly. The length is great, it sits perfectly under my arm with a little bit of room still. Overall great purchase." —Mary

    Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in 15 colors). 

    11. And a sophisticated laptop tote bag that is very versatile so you can strut in style and have everything you need at the same time.

    Reviewer holding a brown version of the bag

    Promising review: "It’s much more spacious than it looks. It’s very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag and I find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, pencil case, two books, makeup bag, water bottle, wallet, lotion, phone and laptop charger, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you see carry it, it doesn’t feel bulky or cumbersome. The bag does sag a bit after use. But has held up to wear and tear. I would recommend." —Su

    Get it from Amazon for $32.99+ (available in 10 styles). 

    12. A slouchy top and pants set for that "model off-duty" look. You'll get the look of having put together 'fit without the $$$. 

    reviewer wearing green set

    P.S. the seller doesn't recommend sizing up for an oversized look because of the loose and stretchy material. 

    Promising review: "This set fits so well! The material is nice and light so good for any season. The pants are long, you could do heels or flats and they wouldn’t look like high waters. I could have done a large but got it in an XL to be safe. I do recommend." —Sharonda Shaw

    Get it from Amazon for $40.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and 32 colors). 

    13. ribbed square-neck, long-sleeve maxi dress that reviewers say looks quiiite similar to the trending Skims one — for less than half the price if I may add! It's super soft and stretchy so you'll be super duper comfy while looking absolutely ~fab~!

    Promising review: "I’d been looking for a Skims alternative — I have the Skims dress, love it, and wanted it another color. Ordered a size large which is my normal size and it fit perfectly! I’m so very happy with my purchase! Literally half the price of Skims and it's identical! If you’ve tried the Skims dress, go ahead and order, you won’t be disappointed!" —JK

    Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and nine colors).

    14. full-zip track jacket because you've been eyeing that Lululemon Define jacket but can't seem to justify spending $100+ on it — don't worry because reviewers say this one is *super* similar, it even has the thumb holes! Soon enough you'll be giving off Real Housewives of OC vibes, but in the best way possible.

    Some versions of the jacket have pockets, too!

    Promising review: "TikTok brought me here! I saw many reviews for the Lululemon BBL jacket, however I was not ready to spend over $100 on a jacket. I’m a frugal gal. I absolutely love this jacket, my boyfriend told me it looked great and I got many compliments. Truly the perfect alternative for the BBL jacket!" —Bri Campos

    Get it from Amazon for $19.16 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 11 colors).

    15. Two pairs of minimalist teardrop earrings that look very similar to the Bottega Veneta ones ($1,000+, gasp!) but no one needs to know that you got them for less than $10 🤫.

    Promising review: "I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly these earrings came and in such cute and safe packaging. They were so shiny and stylish, but I chose the ones that were quite large, but very comfortable and will go with everything!! These are lightweight so they won't pull on your earlobes, you can actually wear them all day and forget they're on, they're so comfy!!! Love them!!" —june d. 

    Get two sets from Amazon for $9.95+ (available in single sets and in a larger size). 

    16. A verrrrry cool crystal pigment because nothing says bougie like ✨ sparkles ✨! This super vibrant eyeshadow will have you looking like a million bucks, and possibly even more, with gold sparkles that change from green, orange, pink and, purple. IDK about you, but I'm absolutely obsessed.

    Get it from Hidden Cosmetics for $22.09.

    17. A jaw-dropping dress that looks so much more expensive than it actually is. This dress is so gorgeous people are going to think that you're attending the Met Gala — flounce those ruffles boo! 

    model wearing gray ruffle dress
    reviewer wearing khaki colored dress

    Promising review: "Love this dress, modest enough to wear for work but cute enough to wear every day! I'm petite so I would say it runs a bit bigger than I'd prefer but it is still super cute! Also, this exact dress is being sold at other boutiques for three times the price!" —Emily Seils

    Get it from Amazon for $37.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and 11 colors).

    18. A magnificent tiered midi dress for a classy yet chic look. You'll literally look like a piece of art as your strut down Fifth Ave. This dress practically screams Coco Chanel. 

    Promising review: "OMG! Awesome!!!!! I plan to wear it on my shoulders, and the elastic seems strong enough to hold. I bought the white and it’s light and airy — not see though at all. I'm so thrilled. I will buy it in black ASAP!" —LB

    Get it from Amazon for $37.98+ (available in sizes XS–XL and 34 colors).

    19. A beautiful high-collared button-down to wear to any occasion, whether that be a work event or high tea. Stay classy, my friends.

    It's hand-wash only, but worth it!

    Promising review: "JUST GET IT! I had this blouse in my cart for a while and finally decided to purchase. I LOVE IT! It's gorgeous and I can't wait to wear it. I think it's so unique because it has a vintage look but also has a lot of versatility. It could be paired with high-waisted jeans, trousers, or skirts. I hope you love it too!!!" —ChristineMarie

    Get it from Amazon for $35.99 (available in sizes 2–20 and in five styles). 

    20. lash-lifting kit that is literally a godsend for all those who say "I swear I have lashes, they're just straight!" (BIG mood). They'll stay perfectly curled for up to a month and your vibes with literally be I woke up like this.

    This kit includes lash glue, lash perm, lash fixation, lash nutrition, lash cleanser, five silicone pads, three lash cleaning brushes, 10 lash micropores, 10 brushes, and five gel under-eye pads. 

    Promising review: "Okay I'm not gonna lie, I was worried that this stuff would either not work at all or make all my lashes fall out. Thankfully, it was neither and the results are UNREAL. I HIGHLY suggest watching some YouTube videos of other people using their perm kits before attempting to use yours. I have big fingers and small eyes so it was difficult for me to get the lift pads in the right positions but once that was over, the rest was a breeze. Unlike some of the other kits I've seen on here, this one has basically everything you need. The only other things I needed were a mirror, some tissue, and a little bit of plastic wrap to cover my lashes while waiting for the lotions to work their magic. I'm totally impressed and will definitely be buying this again! —Ryan

    Get it from Amazon for $24.99.

    21. Or a Kiss Falscara lash kit because the thought of spending hundreds on extensions sends shivers down your spine. You'll be able to get luscious lashes from the comfort of your home, for a *fraction* of the price!

    This kit comes with 10 little lash pieces, an applicator, and a mascara-like bond and glue. If you want them to last longer, you can get the Falscara Overnighter and you can wear them for up to 10 days!

    Watch TikTok makeup expert Mikayla Nogueira review and apply these lashes here.

    Promising review: "I am 25-years-old and I don’t use false lashes mostly because I can’t figure out how to wear them without making them look awful. My hands shake a lot and my eyes water a lot so it’s difficult for me to wear lashes. I saw a TikTok video about these and decided to give it a shot. Although the smaller pieces were slightly difficult to manage, they stuck to the bond on my lashes with EASE! I love the way these look and now I’m going to test how long they can really last. The box states if you apply double the product, they could last about 10 days. We will see about that! Edit: I’ve tried a few times now and these last me two to three days. (I also have watery eyes)." —Desi

     Get it from Amazon for $13.05+ (available in two sets).

    22. A fabulous lip-plumping gloss set that'll give your lips a temporary "lip injection" to give you that Kylie Jenner look. While your pout is lookin' luscious, the vitamin E formula will also help keep it hydrated.

    You'll get one lip plumper and one minty sleeping mask for your lips.

    Promising reviews: "I loved this stuff, it was magic. The evening moisturizer was fabulous. It is the first plumper that actually works for me. Will be buying more for gifts!!!!!" —Alexandra

    "I discovered this product from TikTok and I had to give it a try. I tried the day lip plumper and within a few seconds, there was a subtle tingling/burning that lasted for a few minutes but as it occurred, the plumping started to happen! It made a noticeable difference and made my lips look like I had filler! I'm obsessed!! —Amazon Customer

    Get it from Amazon for $9.98.

    23. A teddy coat so you can look like a million bucks without even having to spend $100!

    Promising review: "I LOVE this coat. I get so many compliments on it. It is so warm and comfortable. I wore it in Chicago in 10-degree weather and walked for hours and never even got a chill. I am going back to purchase it in more colors." —lisa cicciarelli

    Get it from Amazon for $46.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and 23 colors/patterns).

    Promising review: "The best necklace I’ve ever had!!! It’s the perfect size and length, so dainty! I was worried about the gold fading (because it’s so wonderfully affordable) but it hasn’t — not even a little bit!!! I’ve worn it every single day for about a month now, even accidentally wore it in a pool for a little bit but nothing happened and it’s never been damaged! Has become such a staple for me and my everyday outfit, don’t feel complete without it anymore." —Brittany Burrahm

    Get it from Amazon for $10.49 (available in 26 letters and two styles).

    26. A jewelry-cleaning pen for restoring your old rings so they'll stay true to the lyrics, ~shine bright like a diamond~. Save yourself a trip to the cleaner, because all you have to do is twist the bottom of the pen, brush, and lo and behold, your gem is as shiny as new!

    Promising review: "Holy cow! What an amazing product! I wish I'd taken a before and after picture because (at least for me) the difference was obvious. I got engaged almost two weeks ago and since then have worn my ring 98% of the time. I take it off when I'm weight lifting and when I'm putting on lotion. I've been reading up on how to care for my ring and saw the reviews for this. Without a doubt, everyone is right. It's worth every penny! Since jewelers suggest cleaning engagement rings once or twice a month, I figured I'd give it a go and I Was Shook. I honestly forgot how bright my diamonds and topaz sparkled! You can double check the company's website on whether or not you should use this on your particular gem/metal but topaz, diamond, and yellow gold are all A-OK. I give this product the highest of recommendations and will be giving it to everyone I know who has fine jewelry they want to maintain. I also used this on the (nearly) antique engagement ring worn by my grandmother that I keep on a necklace. It shined the garnet up beautifully. I can't wait to pass it on to my grandchildren in as lovely of a condition as it is now." —Becca

    Get it from Amazon for $9.48+ (available in multipacks).

    27. An expensive-looking faux leather belt to tie your entire outfit together. The lil' golden accent will turn your 'fit into a ~masterpiece~.

    Promising review: "These are awesome! They are good quality, function just as belts should, and oh my gosh, they are so cute! I originally purchased one for my daughter — she gets compliments on it all the time and it is constantly mistaken for a Gucci belt. I have since ordered one in another color for her and one for me. Very happy customer!" —Glacier girl

    Get it from Amazon for $11.99+ (available in sizes XS–XL and in 10 colors).

    28. A faux leather jacket because it's so sleek and will add an ~edgy~ vibe to your closet. You'll look luxurious without having to spend the big bucks.

    Promising review: "This jacket is absolutely beautiful. I had no idea that this faux leather would look like real leather!! My family, and friends love the way it looks and feels. It's a real gem in my wardrobe!!! I'm so glad that I got a size smaller because a large wouldn't had fit so perfectly." —anonymous

    Get it from Old Navy for $51.99 (originally $74.99; available in sizes XS–4X with some sizes available in tall and petite and two colors).

    29. An illuminating moisturizer to enhance your skin's natural glow with its shimmering color tint. This will help you achieve that sun-kissed look that's been missing. Reviewers compare it to the Drunk Elephant bronzing drops, so forget about dealing with Sephora kids, IYKYK...

    Promising review: "I can’t believe how long this has been around! I tried Glossier’s Futuredew and realized it felt sort of too oily (and too expensive) for me. This product is SUCH an amazing duplicate that is slightly better! It’s not oily, but provides lightweight shimmer that I mix with my sunscreen for extra sun protection with some highlight effects. I love this! Does not make my super sensitive skin break out or feel oily like the Futuredew did." —e_whospends_money

    Get it from Amazon for $12.74+ (available in three shades).

    30. Pearly hair clips that'll 100% make you look like old money. Just stick these into your hair to add some flair because, after all, life is just better with accessories.

    Promising review: "I've gotten so many compliments on these. Such an easy way to jazz up a look. The bobby pin style are very sturdy and can actually hold a lot of hair in place. I've worn them several times and they've been tumbled around in my purse for days and no pearls have come loose or fallen off. Highly recommend." —R.Lien

    Get a set of six from Amazon for $7.99.

    31. A bottle of Etude's Dear Darling Water Tint that reviewers compare to Benefit's Benetint. Not only can you use it as a lip stain, but you can also apply it on your cheeks! It's perfect to get that natural glow but you can also layer it on for a more ~dramatic~ look.

    Promising review: "While I haven't tried the Benefit lip tint, I saw this on TikTok and appreciated the lower price point. I am SO glad I gave this a chance! I only have the Cherry color, but it is the perfect bit of natural color, and can be deepened as desired upon application. There is no sticky residue and it is not drying or irritating at all. Looks great alone but even better with gloss on top. Love!" —Mollie

    Get it from Amazon for $6.85 (available in five shades and combo packs).
