7 Quality Basics for Under $100

times you shouldn't go shopping - chic fall outfit to copy - clare v leopard clutch - no shopping challenge

Like most people, I’m on a budget. When it comes to shopping for clothes, this means that I’m looking to save on trendy pieces (or not have them at all) but splurge on quality pieces that I’ll wear for years. While I don’t mind saving up in order to add quality pieces into my wardrobe, if there are deals to be had, I’m on board.

This is where Off 5th comes in. You can find some serious steals on top-notch brands. My favorite brand of jeans are usually $100+ a pair but I’ve been able to snag them for as low as $60 (these are even lower right now!) I also regularly find all my favorite designers that I normally only lust over in a price range I can actually afford.

Today I wanted to highlight seven basics everyone should have in their wardrobe but find you quality pieces for under $100 because quality>quantity but who doesn’t like a deal?!

7 quality basics under $100

7 Quality Basics for Under $100

1.Jeans – we all wear them but premium denim versus my more affordable favorites are hard to come by without costing an arm and half a paycheck. These jeans are weekend perfect because they are soft and have plenty of stretch without losing their shape.

2.Chambray button up – this is the swiss army knife of any wardrobe. You can wear it to work (like this outfit) or dressed down (like this outfit). While you can find affordable options but a quality one will probably hold up better 

3. Ankle Boots – it’s a good idea to invest in a couple pairs of ankle boots if you can afford it because they are something you’ll wear year round. In the warmer months with dresses and in the colder months, with pants or tights.

4.Moto Jacket – While this is more of a cool weather staple, a nice faux leather moto jacket will get you stylishly from summer and into winter. Add some edginess into your wardrobe with this chic wardrobe staple for only $50!

5.Denim Jacket – Much like it’s faux leather friend, a denim jacket is a much have basic in any wardrobe. They are available at any price range but a quality pick (at a healthy discount) will last you a lifetime.  

6.white/work blouse – Everyone needs a nice white blouse either for work wear or layering under sweaters for general preppiness. This one is more feminine with a lovely bow detail.

7.Classic pumps heels – A pair of heels that you can hustle in are another must for any woman’s wardrobe. They are part of any capsule work wardrobe and are ideal for anything from date night to Monday morning meetings.

And finally, Saks Off 5th is coming to Seattle! I’m headed to the preview tonight and can’t wait to see what they have in store for us. Don’t forget to follow along with me on Instagram Stories to see the first look inside the new Sak’s Off 5th here in Seattle!
