How To Work A $20 Item Into Your Look
True style is all about the mix. An expensive high-heeled shoe worn with a pair of baggy Levi’s. A Gap shirt worn and a gown! An H&M cardigan with a sleek pair of skinnies.
Our point is, don’t be afraid to be you. Not everything has to be expensive, nor does it need to be trendy. Sometimes the simplest accessories are the ones that shine the brightest.
The image here is a study in high-low. An inexpensive hat from Old Navy is the perfect accouterment to a lace coat by Honor. Meanwhile, mixing Saint Laurent by Hedi Slimane with Forever 21 is even more badass than spending $500 on crystalized tights.
Find the things that you love and wear them well.
