Top 10 fashionable gifts for under $100 on ShinyStyle!

10 under $100 1.jpg

Our American sisters in style have wrapped up $20 gifts under $200 and are on to the $50-$100 price range. The first thing they looked for? A fab coat for gifting to your favorite girl. We like this Gap plaid belted coat, on sale for $94.99, because the plaid can be a little holiday, a little preppy or a little indie depending on the giftee's style. It's a little something different for the girl who usually sticks to pea coats.

Check out the whole list here!

The designer has plucked Jerry Hall to be the face of the campaign, which has been inspired by Colette's Chéri. The famous novel tells the story of a young man who falls for a woman twice his age.

He has also recruited Baptiste Giabiconi off the back of his performance in the Chanel silent film, to play the young man who catches the attentions of the 52-year-old.
