We all want to look like our most polished selves, Set The Tone Shirt don’t we? While, sadly, I’m not here to provide you with a week at a spa or an endless allowance at The Row, I am here to bring you a treasure trove of the most expensive-looking pieces on the high street every week. It’s my mission to prove that you can find premium pieces to elevate your wardrobe without the designer price tag and to make it easy for you to pinpoint the items on the high street that are really worth adding to your wardrobe. There are some amazing gems out there that your friends won’t believe aren’t designer, but there’s a lot to sift through to find them. That’s where I come in. As a Who What Wear editor, I scroll new-in collections as a hobby, and I can spot an expensive-looking (and -feeling) piece a mile away. I’ll be adding the best bits I find to this list. Some may be more “affordable” than others, but you can be confident every piece is here because I believe it offers great value. I hope this edit helps save you time and money as you build a closet of classic pieces that bring joy and last much longer than just a few seasons. Now to the good part. Keep scrolling to shop.

If you want to dress like you belong in the South of France, this is how to do it. If you haven’t heard about the coastal-grandmother aesthetic that’s currently sweeping TikTok, let me enlighten you. Many are subscribing to the look laid out in Nancy Meyers films—which are predominantly based by the sea—where the main character’s wardrobe revolves around easy linen separates, natural Breton stripes, raffia accessories, and a soothing color palette. Refer to Sema’s outfit above for the visual representation of the trend. Zingy orange shades are one of the biggest trends of the season, but admittedly, they can be daunting to style. If you’re tentative about trying it for yourself, follow Shaimaa’s lead by pairing an orange top with white trousers. A pair of classic jeans would also do the trick.
