'I spotted celebs wearing these 3 designer pieces, so I found quality alternatives starting at $17.'

We're in an era where celebrity style has never been more accessible.

We can ID almost any outfit a famous person is wearing moments after they step out, thanks to sleuthy Instagram accounts dedicated to the daily style of fashion It-girls like Hailey Bieber, Kendall Jenner and Sofia Grainge.

But while it's useful to know where Sienna Miller gets her sandals, it doesn't mean we can… afford them. Let us not forget that these women have stylists curating their every look, and access to designer collections for free.

That's where I come in. I love nothing more than tracking down a great high-end dupe. I'm not talking about the knock-offs you get on Temu, but the high street buys that allow you to achieve a very similar look. Oh, the thrill!

There are three specific styles I've noticed doing the rounds amongst the celeb and influencer set, and I've found lookalike styles for each of them — at prices that make sense in a cost of living crisis.

The tank top.

If you're wondering where Kendall Jenner gets her perfect tank tops (oh, weren't you wondering?) it's Amsterdam-based brand Flore Flore.

The label is known for its Esme singlet, which Jenner has in a few colours, and sells like hotcakes thanks to its flattering high neck cut and popularity among those in the know.

It's on the spendy side for $160, but there are cheaper options that look just as good (I swear by the Glassons tank and have it in two colours.)

The jelly thongs.

If there's one shoe we're seeing on all the famous feet while the other side of the world enjoys their summer, it's the Saionara Jelly by Ancient Greek Sandals. Yep, another jelly shoe in the spotlight.

Sofia Grainge is a fan, as is fashion tastemaker Leandra Medine Cohen — and while the pair comes in a couple of colours, it's the style with a red translucent strap and black sole that's selling out the fastest.

At $295, it's not in the same realm of a luxury shoe, but it's still a decent outlay.

With that in mind, here are the best dupes I could find for the trending flat.

The mesh tote.

Another day, another The Row bag going viral…

The luxury label founded by the Olsen sisters has a habit of creating talked-about accessories, and their latest is the Barn Tote — a roomy striped mesh handbag carried by Zoe Kravitz, Kylie AND Kendall Jenner in recent weeks.

If you can't help but feel nostalgic, it might be because mesh totes had a major moment back in the early 2000s. They were a millennial schoolgirl staple.

The Row's tote comes in a few sizes and stripe variations, and while it's on its way to becoming iconic, the smaller size will set you back $1615. That's… a lot for a mesh bag.

Here are some affordable (and equally cute) alternatives.
