17 Fall Fashion Picks Under $300, According to Bazaar Editors

“I’ve been so excited about the resurgence of barn jackets, especially ones with a collar in a different material from the rest of the coat. I recently purchased this raw denim jacket from Reformation with a camel corduroy collar, and I think it’s about to be my new fall staple.” —Olivia Alchek, senior designer

“These are super chic, at a great price. They give me the whimsical feeling of shoes I wore as a kid, yet still make me feel put-together.” —Lynette Nylander, executive digital editor

“Of all the barrel-leg jeans I’ve come to love as a disciple of the silhouette, these are my favorite for fit and comfort. I got these at the start of Fashion Week and have found myself repeat-wearing them since. The raw wash makes every outfit I pair them with feel more polished.” —Jaimie Potters, fashion and luxury senior commerce manager

“To say I lived in these Birdies flats during NYFW would be an understatement. Over the course of a few days, I walked more than 15 miles in them and didn’t get a single blister—though I did get countless compliments on them from fellow showgoers. The metallic finish is right on trend for Fall 2024, but doesn’t feel overly flashy. Paired with gold jewelry, the classic design elevates everything from LBDs to basic tees and jeans.” —Sarah Maberry, fashion and luxury commerce editor

“I’m a sucker for minis—this petite-size version of the Chelsea Everyday Bag, which I use for my daily office commute, carried me from fashion presentations to evening cocktails. Extremely cute look aside, the ample pocket space made sure all my essentials—wallet, keys, phone—were on hand, while the nylon held its shape and pristine sheen despite being tossed about on a jam-packed commute.” —Michella Oré, fashion commerce editor

“The Mary Jane trend has been going strong for a few seasons now. But this pair from Tory Burch still felt new to me, thanks to the square toe that mimics a pointe shoe. Though the style is obviously ballet-inspired, the boxy toe makes the shoe feel less frilly and feminine. I bought them in black and have been wearing them with everything; they are shockingly comfortable to the point of being slipperlike. I may go back for another colorway.” —Leah Chernikoff, executive editor

“I initially ordered this as an undershirt to wear with an itchy sweater I was kindly given last fall (and determined to make work). I didn’t have big expectations, but fast-forward almost a year, and I now own four that I live in. Because the styling possibilities of a plain white T-shirt are endless, this is truly a steal.” —JP

“East-west bags are undoubtedly a Fashion Month trend this season, and I’ve been eyeing Fréja New York’s Mini Chrystie style for months. (I’m even regularly served advertisements for the bag on TikTok.) Its elongated shape is wide enough to store essentials like a phone, wallet, and keys without feeling unwieldy when running from show to show.” —Tiffany Dodson, associate beauty commerce editor

“I’ve been loving a polo lately, and especially this one from COS, as it’s made of recycled silk—so it can be casual enough to wear with jeans and then dressy but relaxed enough to pair with a suit. They have the best colors, and feel and look so luxe, with a similar fabulous price tag.” —Miguel Enamorado, accessories director

“Comfort and style are what I look for nowadays in my footwear, and I’ve gravitated toward a heavy rotation of loafers and flats. The latest pair on my mind is a pair of Vibi Venezia Mary Jane flats. They’re available in an array of shades, from navy blue to bright red, black, and more. The best news? They’re priced at under $150. Style them with trousers, jeans, midi dresses, and more—the options are endless.” —Julie Tong, senior commerce content lead

“When curating your belt wardrobe, this elastic braided Charvet belt is an essential! Worn by all the chicest people I know, it’s very versatile, in that it can be worn casually or with a tailored trouser and still look fabulous. It’s also one of those pieces that if you know you know, and that’s why it’s cool and timeless. You should start with a classic brown or black one and like myself graduate to the tons of other colors they come in.” —ME

“White poplin midi skirts were a massive trend this summer, but thanks to my off-white version from Aritzia, I easily brought the look into September Fashion Week and plan to wear it all throughout fall, too. The versatile, tiered style is polished enough to complement dressier tops (like the black puffed-sleeve Christy Lynn blouse I wore to some SS25 shows) or can easily mesh with more laid-back pairings, like a sports jersey and Salomon sneakers (a favorite weekend look of mine inspired by street-style darling Bella Hadid). I also love that the skirt’s mid-calf length is perfect for showing off a great pair of heels or knee-high boots.” —Sam Peters, senior fashion and luxury commerce editor

“Although summer is technically not over yet, I couldn’t pass up an opportunity to add these wide-leg trousers from Uniqlo’s C collection to my fall wardrobe for Fashion Month and beyond. Not only are they extremely versatile, they’re also supremely comfortable—and at under $60, I know I’ll get plenty of bang for my buck.” —TD

“Okay, so I am cheating and these are a touch over $300, but I have been dying for a pair of jeans from Our Legacy. The loose fit is incredible, as are the washes. I’m not very tall, so it’s been hard for me to find jeans that fit lower on the hip and aren’t completely dragging on the ground, but Our Legacy is exactly right.” —Brooke Bobb, fashion news director

“I know these Me + Em pants are a little over the price cap, but I picked them up at the start of Fashion Week, and I’ve been reaching for them over and over again, and I get compliments every time. They check a lot of boxes: They fit well, they are super comfortable and quite versatile–I’ve worn them with sneakers and flat sandals and heels. But the unexpected design twist of the white elastic boxer waistband peeking out of the top really seals the deal. It’s playful and slightly subversive without doing too much.” —LC

“My colleague Faith often inspires me with her style, but I was particularly taken with the candy-apple red T-shirt she had on in the office a couple of months ago. It was from the brand Flore Flore, and so of course, I had to copy her and buy one immediately. The Car tee in Audrey is now a staple of my wardrobe.” —BB

“I’ve been coveting Luar bags for years now, and after his absolute triumph of a show at NYFW, I’m feeling inspired to finally treat myself to one. I’ve always adored the small version of the brand’s classic Ana bag, and while I could go with something more eye-popping, I think I’ll choose the Tres Leches colorway, which will be the perfect complement to my outfits as I transition my wardrobe from brat summer to pumpkin spice autumn.” —Joel Calfee, editorial and social media assistant
