There are few things I love more than new clothes. I often find that adding one brand-new piece into my daily rotation instantly breathes life into my closet. That being said, I’m not a huge fan of spending a ton of money on the clothes I buy. That’s why these 30 picks from Zara, H&M, and Madewell have made their way into my shopping cart. They’re all priced at under $100 and deserve a forever home in your closet.

Plus, there are tons of elevated basics from H&M that will up your sartorial game this summer. Let’s face it—you can never have too much of a good thing.
