See the Under $100 photo shoot! »

You don’t have to spend a fortune to look like a million bucks, especially in a season of hot pants, top to toe florals and frankly faux gems. In this photo shoot from our February 2013 issue, we selected some of the best pieces of the season from mass retailers like H&M, Joe Fresh, Gap, Guess and more that will cost you no more than $100 each. And as any fashion fiend on a budget knows—under $100 ain’t no easy feat.

So go on, click through our photo shoot and sigh a big sigh of relief; the credit card devil needs not rear his ugly head this shopping trip.
