Having style doesn’t mean you have to shop designer-only, emptying the bank account or racking up the credit card bills. At this stage in the fashion game, chic chicas go through many crafty channels to fill out their creative closets. The trick is knowing what to look for. The fashionistas who have mastered the art of hi-lo styling know how to shop for low, affordable pieces that have a haute flair about them. We’d like to think that we’ve honed our designer-looking detecting skills as well. Our tip? Details, details, details. Pay attention to every inch of the piece, from materials to cut to color and textures. Of course, we want to get your shopping trip started. Here, a slideshow of 10 affordable jewelry items that you’ll want to add to your wardrobe immediately (and they’re all $50 or under!).
