Tis the season for New Year's resolutions, where we pledge to embrace our better selves in the year to come. And while many people look to work out more, or maybe change their eating habits, some of us might have different fish to fry. Think nailing a promotion, traveling more, or maybe spending more time with friends and loved ones. If "I don't have anything to wear" is standing in the way of what you want in life, these $100-or-under pieces will play wingwoman. Scroll through to see how a few simple wardrobe tweaks could change your life, no matter what your 2018 goals are:
