Think back to the last time you were shopping (maybe you were sifting through the racks at Nordstrom or peeping the virtual shelves at SSENSE), and suddenly, you found the most incredible piece of clothing. You felt literal butterflies in your stomach, right? That is until you looked at the price tag. Not to bring back salty shopping feelings, but the gut-wrenching feeling of falling in love with a piece that you can’t justify buying right at this moment is a universal feeling among the fashion set. And while there are some luxury items worth investing in and some great pieces can be found secondhand, having ample money to spend on clothing isn’t always feasible for everyone. But we here at Who What Wear believe that no matter your budget, no one should have to sacrifice great style. In that vein, we’ve rounded up 45 fashion finds, all under $50. From luxurious knits to expensive-looking boots, these finds prove once and for all that having great style doesn’t have to cost a fortune.
