H&M Proves You Can Look Super-Expensive & Stay On Budget

You know it well: $12 striped tees, $25 oversized sweaters, $20 weekend-worthy sweats. When it comes to making ultra-affordable, chic loungewear, H&M is pretty much our savior, but when it comes to that other side of our closets (Dresses! Coats! Blouses!), we've always been a bit leery…until now.

Our latest virtual window-shopping spree has resulted in not one, not two, but 18 seriously luxe-looking H&M finds that would look right at home hanging next to your favorite designer pieces. From a vintage-inspired black satin dress (seriously, it's rehearsal-dinner-worthy) to a gorgeous marigold-hued oversized coat, each of these pieces looks much pricier than it is. Looks like it's time to expand on that H&M shopping list — click through and have at it!
