Priyanka Chopra Just Wore the Chicest H&M Outfit With $80 Boots
Celebrities—they’re just like us! But really, is there anything better than spotting one of your style icons in something you can (drumroll, please) actually afford? Seen just yesterday out and about in New York was none other than Priyanka Chopra wearing not one, not two, but four (comparatively) affordable items all in the same outfit. Finding a full look from a fast-fashion retailer that reads both on trend and expensive can be rather difficult, but Priyanka just did all the work for us.
Wearing a matching houndstooth jacket and skirt set from H&M with each piece ringing in at $50 each, she set the tone for one of the sleekest winter looks we’ve seen in a while. But wait—there’s more! To complete the look, she slipped into $80 Charles & Keith ankle boots and a L’Agence turtleneck we suggest you buy stat if you know what’s good for you. Ahead, shop her full look and get ready for the winter outfit of a lifetime (or at least your best one for that week).

Carhartt WIP Brings Hunting & Workwear Style To Converse Chuck 70
Carhartt Work in Progress (WIP)—the outdoor outfitter’s chic streetwear division—is lending two rugged looks from its Fall/Winter 2019 collection to the Converse Chuck Taylor 70 Ox Classic.
One version of the stylish silhouette, which is the Nike-owned brand’s modern iteration of the iconic Chuck Taylor All Star, is dressed in a seasonal orange and black camouflage pattern. Keeping with the hunter-inspired theme, the polyester upper is constructed with a durable, water-resistant ribstop weave.
The second offering boasts a tonal black, 8-wale corduroy design and a robust cotton twill weave for a workwear-like style. Both sneakers feature vulcanized rubber outsoles, Carhartt WIP logos on the toe caps, co-branded cushioned footbeds and a set of replacement laces.
These new colorways follow the “Camo Olive” and “Brown Duck” Carhartt WIP x Converse Chuck 70 Ox Icons released back in June. The two brands previously joined forces to bolster the basketball-bred kick with waterproof Gore-Tex membranes.
All four variants of the Carhartt’s Converse Chuck 70s are available for $110 online.
