I Love to Shop, But I Like to Stay on a Budget—These 30 Mango Items Look Pricey

With fall quickly approaching, the first thing on my mind is packing away my summer wardrobe and making room for fall pieces. Saying farewell to my brightly colored minidresses, white pants, swimsuits, and coverups and saying hello to chic denim, blazers, leather jackets, and boots is always bittersweet. But the best part of the seasons changing is it gives you an excuse to do a little shopping for the new season. 

Now, I’m a self-proclaimed shopaholic—I could shop all day, every day (and as an editor, I kinda do). But that doesn’t mean I don’t shop with a budget in mind. I love to look expensive without breaking the bank, and Mango has been a retailer I can always count on to do just that. This fall, I’m all about a chic, minimalist yet polished look. All summer, I embraced bold colors, fun patterns, and tried tons of trends. This fall, I’m doing a complete 180 and focusing on great basics, classic silhouettes, great fabrics, and neutral colors. When shopping Mango’s site, I found everything I was looking for—and I mean everything. Great sweaters, tailored trousers, boots, jackets, and knit dresses that I can see myself wearing all season long, and what’s even better? The price point.
