1. A possibly perfect crossbody bag with over 1,000 positive reviews that's so affordable I'm straight-up screaming.

Promising review: "I love this bag. I have shoulder problems, so I needed something that wasn't too bulky or heavy. I still needed a decent sized purse, so I found this bag and took a chance on it. It's everything I needed and wanted. I got the gray color, and it's a fabulous looking bag that goes with everything. Size-wise, it's perfect — it holds all my necessities nicely. I would highly recommend." —Daffydill
Get it from Amazon for $15.95+ (available in 23 colors).
2. A minimal waist belt to make snapping Insta-worthy OOTD pics a cinch.
It comes with instructions on all the different ways you can tie it!
Get it from Amazon for $3.99+ (available in four sizes and eight colors).
4. An amazingly affordable set of sleek hair clips to instantly make any hairdo about a zillion times cuter.
Promising review: "I assumed these would be like every other clip I’ve tried and be too cheap and flimsy. But they are awesome clips! I have very thick hair, and I’ve even been able to use these clips for half-updos. There's plenty of space between the clip and fastener for hair." —Colin
Get a set of eight from Amazon for $6.99+ (available in two combinations).
5. Movie star-worthy, mirrored cat eye sunnies at a "still waiting for my big break" price.
Promising review: "I get compliments on these EVERY time I wear them. They look a lot like the brand Quay, which everyone asks me if they are. The fact that these get mistaken for a pair of $50 sunglasses should tell all." —Madison Holder
Get them from Amazon for $12.95+ (available in seven colors).
6. A dainty unicorn necklace to make every day legendary.
Get it from zoozjewelry on Etsy for $26.50+ (available in three charm colors, three chain colors, and three chain lengths). You can also get just the charm for $26.50+.
7. A cozy blanket scarf you can rock a bunch of different ways, from around your neck to over your shoulders as a shawl. However you wear it, it's sure to have people checking out your great style.
Promising review: "I've been shopping on Amazon for as long as I can remember and this scarf is the best purchase I have ever made. THE BEST. I love plaid. My attire is basically a constant state of autumn aesthetic no matter what the season actually is. This scarf is so soft. It feels like I'm petting a bunch of tiny kittens. It's thin, but not too thin. It doesn't feel cheap. I like this because it's not super bulky around my neck. This thing is gigantic. I was freezing in my office yesterday and unwrapped my scarf and made myself a fun little blanket to enjoy during my 9-5. I felt so cozy and warm. It was wonderful. I freaking love this scarf." —Sarah
Get it from Amazon for $8.99+ (available in nine patterns).
8. Geometric front-back earrings ready to whip your wardrobe into shape.
Though they look like ear jackets, they're actually all one piece — the bar part loops through your lobe!
Promising review: "These are some of the only earrings I've worn that don't make my ears itch and react, which is pretty awesome, considering the low price. Usually I get about four hours out of a pair of earrings before they drive me batty, but I can wear these 12 hours or more without any problems. Also, they may look stabby and sharp, but they aren't at all. I wear them all the time and they have never caught my neck or clothing. They also aren't flimsy. I'm known for manhandling my jewelry and breaking the cheap stuff easily, and I've somehow managed not to snap or bend these, which is a miracle. They haven't turned green or lost their shine. They're lovely." —Lexi
Get them from Amazon for $10.99.
9. A precious adjustable fox bangle you absolutely need, so you should slyly find a way to tail all your friends it's on your wishlist.
Get it from VillaSorgenfrei on Etsy for $25.11. Get it in silver here.
10. A beautiful heart locket with space inside to store a small photo or object. Honestly, this is the kind of thing I could see you passing on to your grandchildren.
Get it from Free People for $39.95 (originally $54).
11. Or a layered heart pendant you'll adore so much, you'll wanna serenade it with a love song. Might I suggest Taylor Swift's "Delicate"?
12. Delicate faux-diamond drops in gold- or platinum-plated sterling silver that'll shine just as bright as real diamonds.
Promising review: "These are beyond expectations! I stopped buying real diamond earrings years ago, since I'm notorious for losing them. I lost one of my favorite CZ leverback earrings and couldn't find a replacement. These are much sturdier than the ones I lost, so I don't think I will have a problem with them falling out. The leverback makes them comfortable, so I don't need to take them out to sleep. The size is big enough to be seen, but small enough to be believable. They also came in a beautiful velvet box." —Rebecca Balent
Get them from Amazon for $13+ (available in four sizes, two metals, and two cuts).
13. Harry Potter ear jackets you can rock with or without the fringe back, so they work equally well for laid-back days or occasions when you feel like declaring "I am that Snitch."
Get them from Hot Topic for $6.99.
14. A classic beanie beloved by over 1,500 reviewers to keep you ahead of the game when it comes to staying warm and cute.
Promising review: "This is a perfect, stylish hat. I'm a hat freak, and I've worn this hat probably more then any other since I received it. I have about 50 hats, but this is my new favorite one. Some hats are way too small, but this one is perfect! It's not thin, so it would also be great for hiking or camping. I just wear it because I live in cold, rainy Seattle." —karen vanbrocklin
Get it from Amazon for $8.95 (available in eight colors).
15. Delicate ear crawlers you'll never want to leaf home without.

17. Beaded statement stunners that'll turn any basic outfit into one that commands, "bow down, bitches."
Get them from Baublebar for $22 (originally $38).
18. An adjustable Kendra Scott birthstone bracelet you can rock every day for a pop of color and a personal touch.
I have a necklace by this brand with the same kind of adjustable closure, and it glides so smoothly and is easy to get to exactly the right size!
Get it from Nordstrom for $50+ (available in 12 stones).
19. A studded metallic mini satchel to give your everyday look a little extra edge.

23. And a trendy yet practical leopard belt bag you can wear with pretty much anything, because leopard print is basically just an extra-fabulous neutral.
Promising review: "I love this leopard print belt bag! The quality is top-notch and the gold chain is a nice touch, so you can easily dress it up or down. I've paired it with leopard print booties. On a more casual day, I paired it with a red top, black skinny jeans, red classic Reeboks, and a red lip!" —mizbigspenda
Get it from Express for $29.94 (originally $49.90).
