I’ve always believed that you don’t have to spend a lot to look great, which is why I’m such an avid high and low shopper. Oftentimes, I’ll save on everyday basics but splurge on accessories. One of my favorite places to find the best basics has always been Abercrombie. They have the best tops for layering – and comfy denim that easily rivals premium brands. One of the major selling points for me has always been the sizing. Many of their styles come in regular and petite options, which is perfect for my height and body type. Today, I wanted to share 5 pieces in my wardrobe that you’d never guess are from Abercrombie. Not only are they stylish and affordable but make great fall transitional pieces too!

Striped Boyfriend Shirt

I can't resist a good stripe shirt. This one is my go-to for chic, off-duty style with the washed out stripes and looser boyfriend fit. I love wearing it slightly unbuttoned with a lace bra and jeans.

Lace Bra

A black lace bra is perfect for layering under a white tee or peeking out from underneath a button-down shirt. This one is under $20 and fits comfortably.
