We know trendy outfits come and go but sometimes we don’t want to pay too much for an outfit that was so last year. Therefore, here are five clothing stores that you can shop online and in stores without feeling guilty.

FOREVER 21

Forever 21 is known for its constantly diverse fashion styles and sales and by that, I mean great sales you can’t pass out on. If you’re looking for an outfit that’s edgy, boho, girly, dressy, or sporty – Forever 21 has it. I purchased this mauve pink double strap suspender jumpsuit for $7.50 when it was originally $23 last year in the spring. I paired it with a $5 short sleeve white cotton bodysuit I found at Forever 21 and to this day it still looks like a brand-new outfit. The total cost was $12.50 plus tax – can you say what a bargain?

SHEIN

Shein is an online store based in China and has been around for a while now. However, girls on social media have been hyping this online store for months and I decided to recently jump on this trendy bandwagon myself. Let me tell you, I don’t regret a cent.

A couple of pieces that I purchased was this black fedora with a chain belt for only $8 and a black fuzzy sleeve pearl beaded top for $10. I’ve worn this top once and received so many compliments. The only downfall about the top, is that the fuzzies do tend to fall off. I recommend hand washing it to prevent further shedding. What I love about these pieces is that you can combine this top with a skirt or a pair of jeggings for a chic look.

FASHION NOVA

Let’s get this straight, you can find any style you want on Fashion Nova. If you’re looking for a sweet girl floral dress or a tight taupe-colored top like Kim Kardashian’s, you are in the right place. Although, I highly suggest their Glistening jeans, which are distressed and high-waisted running from $27 to $43. I’ve owned these jeans for about four years now and are still in great condition. Their stretchy material gives you enough room to move around, plus they come in six different colors and sizes from 00 to 3x.

As for shoes, if you’re looking for Ariana Grande’s inspired suede knee-high boots, with or without the heel, you can buy them for less than $50. Have I mentioned they’re always offering discount codes? I pair these boots with the Glistening jeans, a $13.98 mauve wrap top, and a $25 black bomber jacket – both purchased from Fashion Nova.

EXPRESS

If you’re looking for a fashionable formal outfit for work or a night on the town, Express is your place to shop at. Express is known to be pricey but they’re always having sales from $10 off coupons to an extra 50 percent off in stores and online.

For instance, these high-waisted black croc leggings were $15 during a sale and are originally $24. What I like about these leggings is that you can dress them up or down. Now, if you mean business and you want a formal yet fashionable outfit for work or an interview, you can find blazers on sale for under $40. I purchased this one-button burgundy blazer last year for $30 when it was originally $128.

Also, if you’re looking for tops to wear without a blazer, I found this Fuschia-colored front bow blouse for $15 on the clearance rack. Plus, I snagged these royal blue high-waisted slacks for $20 originally priced at $80. Therefore, if you ever go to Express, don’t forget to stop by their sale section. You never know what you can find.

NORDSTROM RACK

Finally, Nordstrom Rack, the department store chain of Nordstrom. If you haven’t shopped here, I recommend doing so. If you’re looking for high-end brands with low prices you will find them here.

A few years back I purchased a pair of Nike neon red and beige-colored shoes with a silver swoosh for $20. When it comes to Nike shoes, they’re either too expensive or they don’t have the size you’re looking for. Well, these pairs caught my eye, and once I saw the price, I couldn’t leave them behind. Another great find was a pair of cat-eye green mirror sunglasses for $7. Although they didn’t have a name brand, I couldn’t say no to these stylish summer shades that stood out from the others.

Surprisingly the Nike shoes are still in good condition since I continue wearing them at the gym, as well as these everyday shades.

Whatever the occasion may be, these top five affordable clothing stores will have what you’re looking for. Besides, what’s better than an extra sale on top of clearance? In my opinion, not a full-price outfit that was so last year.
