Alessandra Ambrosio in Acne Velocite Jacket look for less
Leave it to Alessandra Ambrosio to make a sweaterdress sizzle on a snowy NYC day! We love how she paired her rust-hued mini dress with lace-up boots and her favorite Acne 'Velocite' Shearling Jacket. This jacket is still super popular, and luckily there are a lot of good dupes, including this one under $100 on Amazon. Compared to the $2,700 pricetag on the designer jacket, we'll take the budget find any day!



Look for Less: Pottery Barn Seagrass Headboard

Love this Pottery Barn look for half the price!
I'm in the process of decorating our guest room which has led me to Pottery Barn for inspiration. But no way can I afford Pottery Barn prices! Their beachy seagrass headboard is $500 for the queen. Meanwhile I found a great look for less that's half the price at Target.com. Same look, very different prices!

Meghan Markle's White Turtleneck Dress Look for Less

Meghan Markle's white turtleneck dress and matching coat
The Duchess of Sussex Meghan Markle glows in her white turtleneck dress by Calvin Klein with a matching white coat by Amanda Wakeley. We love the idea of matching your coat to your dress - the result always looks elevated and expensive. Another pro tip from a royal: Anchor your look with an unexpected neutral, like the olive green Ralph Lauren pumps and clutch seen here!



Look for Less: Steve Madden 'Rosalyn' Gem Slide Sandals

Steve Madden dupes at Target!
Thanks to my Instagram fam for finding this great look for less! Target's gem embellished slide sandals are half the price of Steve Madden's 'Rosalyn' slide sandals. Such a fun look for summer! Super glam yet laid back and easy to wear at the same time.
