SAME LA Inspired Looks That Won’t Break the Bank

SAME LA was everywhere in summer 2023 and 2024 and honestly, it still is. The brand blew up on Instagram, with the Grace dress and their viral bathing suits popping up on my feed nonstop. Everything about the brand feels so cute, so chic, and perfectly summer. It gives effortless, beachy, sophisticated energy that looks amazing on literally everyone. SAME pieces are the kind of outfits you throw on and instantly feel put together, whether you’re headed to brunch, vacation, or a beach club.

But let’s talk about the price. SAME is definitely on the swanky side, and I kept wondering how everyone was affording it. After some scrolling, I noticed a lot of girlies on Reddit asking the same thing and hunting for affordable dupes. That inspired me to do a little digging of my own.

I went down the Amazon rabbit hole and found some really good SAME-inspired pieces. I’m not going to lie, this is just four of many similar styles I came across, but they’re great starting points. These options give you the same elevated, minimal vibe without the hefty price tag.

If you’re planning a spring break trip or putting together your summer wardrobe, these dupes make it easy to recreate that SAME LA look on a budget.

SAME Grace Dress & Similar Look

SAME has definitely discounted this dress since the last time I saw it on my Instagram feed, but this look can still be easily recreated with an Amazon find. The quality may be different, for sure, but if you’re interested in a tweed moment and like the idea of saving almost $30, the Amazon dress is worth considering.

Fel gave it a 5-star rating and wrote, “This dress is exactly as pictured!! I am 5’2 130 pounds. I honestly could have gotten an XS but I wanted to be safe since there was no reviews so I got a S. I love it and it fits perfectly!”

Double Layer Corset One Piece & Similar Swim Top

I love a one-piece swimsuit. They’re so classy and modest. This suit is seriously Instagram-perfect, vacation-worthy, everything. I hate that so many of us can’t afford it, but there is a similar look on Amazon, and customers are giving it great reviews.

Rosette Triangle Top

Swimsuits are pretty pricey these days. Gone are the days of paying under $40 for a two-piece. Now you usually have to buy the pieces separately and pay a lot for both. I love that Amazon makes it easy to recreate the look and get both pieces for a great deal.

The top has a 4.4 average rating, which is pretty solid. The girls must love it! Larisa gave it a 5-star rating and wrote, “Who would have thought a high quality and unique bikini like this would have come from Amazon?!? But I love it, and get so many compliments when I wear it.”

Ruffle Hem Mini Dress

Choose from four different colors and three different sizes to find your perfect fit. Honey, you are going to be the cutest thing in the room the moment you walk in wearing this dress. It looks way more expensive than it actually is, which is honestly the best part. The price is almost too good to be true. It’s an easy piece to dress up or down, making it perfect for both fall and winter wear.

A 5-star rating says, “quality is outstanding. The material is super soft and feels great against the skin, although it’s a bit thick, so I wouldn’t recommend it for warmer weather.”
