Shopbop has been an online retailer that I’ve shopped for years. I remember in high school browsing and dreaming of being able to afford the brands. Over the years though, they’ve expanded their designer offering and now have quite a few affordable brands to shop. They even carry Madewell! I love shopping at Shopbop because they offer free fast shipping and easy free returns. And I feel like they have brands that you just don’t see on other sites as much. With so many designers to sift through, and a REALLY big price range that seems like well I can’t afford this site, today’s post is for you.
Shopbop also does a few really good sales a year. And they’re usually buy more save more events. And one is happening right now. Here are some of my favorite brands to shop at Shopbop that are more affordable than their homepage will make you think! I’d say most of these brands have pieces under $200.
Favorite Affordable Shopbop Brands
Madewell
You know I love my Madewell. But with their buy more save more sales, sometimes it’s smart to buy through Shopbop. Madewell only does their Insider sale a few times a year and if you missed something, Shopbop is where I’d pick it up when they’re doing a sale! If you need sizing tips, check out my Madewell denim guide here.
Pistola Denim
I’ve come to really love Pistola Denim and am now the owner of their jumpsuits, denim and sweaters. They’re really great quality and good fits too. This brand runs true to size. I take my usual denim size and top size.
Anine Bing
A bit more of a splurge, but worth it. I love Anine Bing for her cool edgy girl style. From graphic tees to hoodies, and even great closet essentials from sweaters to boots. The tees and hoodies are within my budget. How I’d love to own a blazer or two!
WAYF
Another affordable and trendy brand that I love, WAYF. Their prices are almost always at or around $100. I have several items from this brand and would say it runs similar to ASTR The Label and to size up if in-between sizes.
Z Supply
This is a new to me brand that I can’t believe I wasn’t wearing longer. It’s the ultimate lounge brand with great basics like tees and sweaters too. I have a few of their lounge pieces that got me through the 2020 pandemic. And just picked up the most perfect white v-neck that is not see-through. It’s so good.
A Few Other Affordable Brands
There are SO many designers available to shop on Shopbop and one thing I do is favorite my designers. You can then go in and just shop for those designers. It makes a big difference when sifting through their massive product assortment and even wider price range. You can’t filter by price on the website, but in their app, you can! So silly. But here are a few other notable brands to favorite and browse for cute pieces.
Trendy Brands
For cute and trendy clothing, I really love Moon River, En Saison, ASTR The Label, Lioness, BB Dakota and English Factory. The fit can be hit or miss on English Factory, but the rest are fairy true to size and consistent. All are great for trendy pieces. I check out all these brands any time I log onto Shopbop and definitely anytime I’m looking for a little something fun for an event or trip.
Best Handbags
I mostly buy my bags from Shopbop and a few of my favorite brands are Bembien, Mar Y Sol for summer bags and Hat Attack. For a splurge, Cult Gaia has a good product assortment here too. Many aren’t super affordable, but I find they have a unique variety of bags and brands. Plus, they have an under $300 bag section and that’s usually where I browse!
Workout Gear
My favorite workout gear available at Shopbop is Girlfriend Collective. I love their bras and they’re super affordable. The Paloma is a favorite. They also carry Sweaty Betty, Alo Yoga and Splits59.
Closet Basics
For closet basics from denim to tees, DL1961, Levis and RAILS and Splendid are solid choices that don’t break the bank. They even have great bras and underwear from Calvin Klein to Natori.
Shoes
And for shoes, there’s a good range from sneakers like New Balance, Reebok, Madewell, Vejas and Converse, to heels like my beloved Castaner espadrilles. They also have Dr Martens, Sam Edelman and Steven by Steve Madden. And probably my most favorite and hard to find elsewhere are Schutz. I love anything they make!
Splurge Worthy Brands
Sometimes I like to maybe splurge a tad. And there are a few brands I like on Shopbop that I think are worth it!
Veronica Beard, these clogs were a favorite. When her pieces are on sale, it’s worth it! If I had a disposable income, Ulla Johnson would be on repeat in my closet. Avec Les Filles for good coats. And for cute dresses, Xirena, Faithfull the brand and Farm Rio are all great brands to splurge on if you ask me!
When Are The Shopbop Sales
The buy more save more events happen a few times a year. Right now the 2021 Shopbop Style Event is going on October 11- 14th. Pieces go fast, and some brands are excluded. You can get early access to the sale if you’re a member (free to join). Use code STYLE to get up to 25% off your order. Buy more, save more!
