Capsule Wardrobe Staples Under $100

You can create a stylish and functional wardrobe without spending your whole paycheck. Here are some high-quality staples under $100 that you can mix and match to create tons of office looks.

I recently shared a post on the pieces you need to build a capsule wardrobe, and I want to dig deeper into that list with budget-friendly options.

Building a capsule wardrobe that flexes between work and play, with pieces that will last for years, is truly an art form. If you’re working with a modest budget, or consider yourself frugal, it almost becomes a science. You want a balance between pieces that are affordable and good quality. Notice that I said affordable and not cheap. Very rarely will you find anything that’s cheap and good quality.

I know it can be a headache doing all the legwork to find pieces within a certain price range that are made of good materials. That’s why I’ve challenged myself to do it for you! So, here it is—my roundup of capsule wardrobe pieces that are under $100.

Pro tip: Some of my favorite places to shop are “factory” or “outlet” versions of brands like Banana Republic and J.Crew. You’ll usually find great pieces that are budget-friendly. If you want to shop the main brand, keep an eye out for sales.
