If you think it’s required to spend hundreds — or thousands — on tops, pants, shoes and jackets to elevate your look, we caught you at the perfect time. Never underestimate the power of an accessory! While an oversized pair of sunnies and a sparkly necklace will do, purses are the most fail-proof way to look like a millionaire no matter what you wear.
But the right bag is key. It’s often the first piece people notice when they see you, so if it’s a luxe-looking or designer one, they’ll assume your whole getup is expensive. Expert hack! But you don’t have to spend half your paycheck on a high-end bag. Some of our all-time favorites are on sale at Macy’s.
