Ssshhh...even editors don’t always wear the real McQueen. When our runway-gazing eyes are bigger than our bank accounts, we seek out fast-forward fashion—and the fiercest footwear—at Zara. (Psst! New stock arrives Tuesdays and Fridays.) H&M is tops for everyday versions of seasonal trends, but it’s the all-star collaborations that really stand out, from Karl Lagerfeld to Rei Kawakubo.
We depend on Gap for denim—the fits are the best you can find for under $100. Office outfits that don’t blow the bonus? Split your investments between Banana Republic, the bastion of premium basics, and Club Monaco, where classic monochrome never loses its appeal. Finally, for a girls’ night out, we head straight from the office to the nearest Le Château for supper-lounge wear we can afford to spill bubbly on.
