If you’re not already following Olympa Gayot on Instagram, you’ll want to make sure you do. As the creative director of J.Crew, Gayot is not only responsible for the latest preppy, classic, and trendy pieces at the retailer, she’s also at the helm of the creative direction. On her own Instagram, she’s often sharing selfies wearing the brand, styling denim and workwear in ways that feel refreshing yet timeless.
Recreating Gayot’s signature look is possible, and even better can be done on a budget. J.Crew is stocked with so many pieces under $100 that make it easy to embrace the brand’s signature style. You can scoop up basics like a colorful sweater or a pair of baggy jeans if you’ve found your everyday wardrobe is lacking. But, it's J.Crews accessories that make the biggest impact. A metallic headband or a pair of feathered gloves can transform your look from casual to fanciful without much more than a two-second effort.
To help you embrace the signature preppy-cool J.Crew aesthetic, I’ve collected 29 items that I found currently available for under $100 (whether at full price or on sale). You can pick up a single impactful purchase or fill your cart with a handful of new items that will refresh your look in a way Gayot would surely approve.
