You don't have to be Paul Krugman to know that the economy isn't, uh, doing so well. But that doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style. Even a cheapie Hanes tank top can look like couture if it's paired with great accessories. The trick is to find a killer piece that makes a statement — that way, you'll look like a million bucks, even if you've been staying on a budget. Here are some of our faves — all under $125:
- Archives Marriage Charm Necklace: This brass necklace looks amazing with a cami or v-neck sweater. Give it as a gift for the bride-to-be in your life, or treat yourself if you're the lucky engaged one.
- Geren Ford Three-snap Belt: Not only is this belt a great deal at half-price, it's a slimming and waist-defining powerhouse. Buttery-soft leather and an ever-so-slightly retro color palette make this incredibly versatile. Use it to dress up an otherwise blah dress — it's a cinch.
- Bloch London Soft Jazz Shoes: Our BFF just came back from Italy, where, she said, everyone was wearing metallic sneakers and jazz shoes. Have a Roman holiday of your own with these ultra-comfortable flats. They totally pop with dark denim or black tights, turning a basic outfit into sartorial splendor.
