We certainly don’t need to sit here and go over our fascination with Zara. After all, we routinely serve you with a healthy dose of the latest finds we’re loving from the retailer. That said, as we covered recently, we do also tend to hit up other affordable shops that offer trendy merch when we want to diversify a bit and take just a little break from the Zara overhauls.

Some of the stores in question? H&M, ASOS, and & Other Stories. Actually, you can also find quite affordable (talking under $100 here) merch at some of the larger department stores like Nordstrom as well. To showcase the forward range available at said stores, we rounded up 25 chic and cheap clothing items we bet fashion girls would love, even if they’re used to uncovering affordable gems at Zara.

Keep scrolling to scoop up one (ahem, or a few) of the below pieces to round out your wardrobe.

Next, check out five shoe brands to try if you love buying footwear at Zara.
