Since fashion has hit the cycle of “what you wore in 4-8th grade,” it’s only appropriate that we spend a day talking about overalls. The act of wearing overalls checks the box of every major lazy fashion goal, and their decade-defying prowess should not be ignored.

Firstly and most importantly for us broke folk: overalls are versatile, flexible, and eternal. Not only do overalls come in every fabric, fit, and shape, but they can be transformed into whatever type of outfit you need at any given time. With the clever use of accessories and undershirt (or lack thereof), you can effectively mold your overall outfits into everything from She’s All That…

…to Céline Dion goes shopping.

Overalls are thirsty for your personal style. Whether you’re a fan of cozy minimalism or have an obsession with cute enamel pins, overalls aren’t gonna discriminate against your wishes. They love being adorned, but they’re equally great at providing an ultra-simple solution to that whole “dressing yourself” thing.

Let’s not forget the origin of overalls, either. Overalls are a working woman’s uniform, and they’re all about efficiency and utility. The pockets on overalls should not go overlooked, or underestimated. They’re a key feature of classic overalls, and anything without ’em ain’t nothin’ but a jumpsuit.

Thanks to the fact that the ’90s are back, you can find overalls in a ton of different places, and in a ton of different styles. Now is a great time to experiment with these lazy girl wardrobe staples because, if you have a vision of a perfect pair of overalls, you can probably find them.

If you’re not really into Denim but you’re down with the idea of overalls, let me make a recommendation: black overalls. They are not only the safe route of overalls, but they also happen to be cute AF 24/7. Primo examples include:

And if those don’t sell you on black overalls, please scroll up and look at the enchanting, intriguing, and downright bewildering Céline Dion until the concepts of black overalls and fashion have lost all meaning.

Time to Shop: The Best Affordable Overalls

As I mentioned before, overalls are having yet another heyday. As one of fashion’s most popular cyclical items, overalls are always being championed by at least one fashion sub-group, so you’ll almost always be able to find standard Denim Overalls, especially online.

When it comes to the more adventurous overalls, however, you’ll want to bee-line for trendy clothing shops to find budget-friendly styles. These fashion-forward overalls in unique or luxurious fabrics might threaten to lose your interest after a few months. Overalls are definitely timeless, but green velvet overalls might not be as timeless as a good denim or faux leather pair. But if you’re Céline-level-ready to commit to an edgier pair of overalls, you should prepare to drop some extra dollars overalls made from sturdier fabrics than most trend shops can offer.
