There is nothing I love more than a killer, affordable outfit. You guys know how much I pride myself on wearing accessible items that everyone can purchase. One of my biggest pet-peeves is reading an article about “affordable” fashion and the list features a $300 dress and a $100 top. Heads up to the folks writing this stuff…that is NOT considered affordable.
I recently made a huge Nasty Gal purchase for nine items totaling at a little over $200. That’s roughly $22 for each piece…and you know what? The items were amazing! This red fringe jacket, j’adore t-shirt and tan booties were among the purchases and they look more luxe than a $22 price tag. Just goes to show you…it’s not about how much you spend it’s about finding the right stores to shop.
Which leads me to my Top Affordable Clothing Sites to shop:
1. Nasty Gal – ahhh Nasty Gal, this shop holds a dear place in my heart. When I first started blogging Nasty Gal was THE ULTIMATE place to shop, everyone wanted to be a Nasty Gal girl. The site has changed a ton over the years…and the prices have dropped considerably. I still always go back to this website for super trendy cool girl items (like the ones I am wearing here).
2. ASOS – ASOS has everything and anything you want. From formal dresses under $100 to classic trousers that will last you years to come. I love shopping ASOS, especially since they offer 2-day shipping to the US with orders over $50. I load up on ASOS goodies right before all my travels.
3. Vici Collection – This one is a new discovery for me…and one I have grown quickly fond of. They have a curated shop of seasonal items so you’re not clicking through 300 pages of dresses. Everything is super wearable and I appreciate how they style the models in “real-life” scenes.
4. Lulus – if you love girly, feminine pieces Lulus is the shop for you. They literally have any dress you can think of at amazing price ranges.
5. Forever 21 – I wouldn’t be able to write this post without featuring Forever 21. I know a lot of people who frown upon those that wear Forever 21…and frankly I don’t care. I shop Forever 21 online and find really amazing pieces. So much so that you guys always ask me what my recent F21 purchases are. Plus, you can now return for your money back!
You can shop my (almost) full Nasty Gal order below. A quick heads up that some of the items are now sold out!
Yes girl! Killer outfit! Love nastygal 💃🏼💃🏼
@angdime 😊
Love it..😍😍😙😙
I totally forgot about Nasty Gal. Def want to peruse the site now! You look so amazing. I agree with whoever said you look like the most stylish Cheeto in existence ⚡️⚡️⚡️
You posted plaid pants from nasty gal awhile back when you were away in Europe. Had to have them so I bought them and they’re one of my favorite pieces in my clothing collection. Oh! And they were under $30. Thanks girl! @amandapisani_
Love your style and sense of humor. (Also love this hot cheeto sweater lol) Ig- @chelzss
Love this post. You're so right about orher posts titled as "affordable" and turning to be the opposite! It's so nice to see someone with a following like yours sharing ACTUALLY AFFORDABLE places to shop. Not only do you talk the talk, but you walk the walk and show us how you style these items and hit the nail on the head when you said these pieces look more luxe than a $22 tag. It really is all about how you style your pieces! Thank you so much for always being such an inspiration and so true to your feelings when you blog! (I feel the same way about people who frown on shopping at F21) I can't wait to check some of these places out! I own nothing from Nasty Gal, ASOS, or Lulus. I'm a new blogger currentlt trying to figure out how to make an actual blog, I'm really looking forward to the post you talked about in your instagram story! One affordable online spot I like to shop: Boohoo.com – If you ever have time please let me know what you think of it! Love, Alex from @alexgotdressed
You had me at affordable!! ASOS and F21 are my go-tos for sure, but I really wanna try Vici as well! Such a cute look, girlfriend!

l absolutely love the fact that you do blog post like this!! Thank you �� l will absolutely look into nasty gal l have never purchased from there! My instagram @wanderlikethesun
Love this post so much! It’s absolutely true what you said. Most of the time I don’t even check what bloggers are wearing because I’m expecting it to be way out of hand. It’s great to see you stay true to yourself and I loved some of the recommendations, most of them are the places I usually shop but I’m quite surprised about Forever21. I used to shop there a few years ago and for some reason I never check their website anymore, will have to jump there soon.
Amazing post! My instagram is @mariaevve xx

Love the look you posted! It’s crazy cuz I haven’t shopped at Nasty Gal sense it was sold a few years ago in fear of the styles becoming unlike the Nasty Gal I use to love, but from this post I see there are still great finds on this site. Definitely gonna check it out!
Even Forever 21 has amazed me with some of their new styles and the quality of their products as well.
Also, how long did it take for you to receive your ASOS order? I’m afraid I have to order at least 2 weeks in advance if I really needed something from there.
Keep sharing your style!

I love this red shaggy cardigan! And the j’adore tee.
Nasty Gal & Vici are some of my fave places to score on trend pieces!
I love all of these pieces! I NEED that J'adore shirt. Also I agree that it's so frustrating when bloggers think $100/item is affordable. Thanks for being so genuine and down to earth.
