1 // 2 // 3 // 4 // 5 // 6

I love finding dupes for otherwise extremely expensive items. These types of posts are my absolute favorite ones to write and post to my blog for you to read! When I come across something that looks familiar to me because I’ve seen a famous celeb or blogger wearing it, I instantly want to find the same look for less. One of my favorite things to do is hunt down the most affordable options and share them with other fashion lovers! It makes me so happy to see people responding to my finds because part of what I love to do is help people look and feel their best by shopping smart! Trends come and go, so way not save some major $$ while looking incredible at the same time. Today I am sharing three of my current budget-friendly trends:

 The Chloe Drew Bag is a blogger must-have of the moment, and I found a nearly identical one for under at Aldo.com for under $50 {only $45!}. Forever 21 has also made their own version of this bag {which I seriously want!} for less than $30 but it is still sold out. I also recently found two more–one for $38.00  and another for under $20 which is a steal!

Another Chloe bag is the Chloe Faye Suede-Flap Shoulder Bag that retails for anywhere between $1,300-$1,800. This bag is so chic for the fall because of its suede material. Paired with a button-up jean skirt and a white blouse, this bag instantly makes an outfit feel fancier. However, I find this price point unrealistic and therefore I set out to find a better deal–and I stumbled upon this similar bag from Forever 21 that is less than $30 {get it for $27.50!}.

As for lace-up flats, they have been everywhere this season! I purchased this pair last month from Charlotte Russe because they had shoes marked down 40% off! This pair is extremely similar and on sale from $50 to $24.97. As for the pair in the photo above, they are from Lulus.com. They are still on sale for under $30.00 which is awesome! Another option is this pair which are brand new to American Eagle for under $40.00. Stuart Weitzman makes incredible shoes, but I just can not dish out over $400 for any right now.



I really hope you enjoyed this post! If there are any major trends you are seeing right now and would love for me to find dupes for you, please feel free to let me know in the comments! I thoroughly love searching for affordable alternatives to pricey items!
