You Made It Through 2020—Here Are 30 Under-$50 Gems to Treat Yourself With
On Claire Most: Capricorn Studios Amelia Top ($28)
It goes without saying, but what a beast this year has been. It's kind of bewildering to think about but here we are on the cusp of a new and hopefully improved year—a year in which you're going to need to wear things. Some of those things will probably be sweats and slippers and some not, so this shopping guide is a mixed bag.
While I've been busy putting together gift guides and holiday stories, my head has been spinning thanks to all of the very chic, very affordable items I've come across. I love seeing these little reminders that you needn't spend a lot of money to look stylish. But I digress. The simple point of this story is to treat yourself to something cute and cheap, and I found 30 perfect items to do just that with. Keep scrolling to browse and add to cart, if you're so inclined.
