Kyle Richards' faves under $100
Given Kyle Richards' Beverly Hills mansion and her collection of Hermes Birkin bags, it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that everything she owns costs a fortune. But you know what they say about making assumptions, right? Sure, the Real Housewives of Beverly Hills star lives a lavish, luxurious life, but she still likes reliable products at great prices, just like the rest of us.
Need proof? Her go-to running sneakers are classic Asics, which offer lots of support for less than $100. And the beach bag she says she's "so in love with"? A stunning straw find from Amazon that's only $28. If you're wondering what other affordable must-haves Richards has raved about, we've rounded up a bunch of her best budget-friendly picks below.
"Running is where I'm seeing the most results with my body," the reality star shared on Amazon Live. She added: "Asics are best for me for running. They feel good on my feet."
The Bravo-lebrity has worn multiple Asics styles over the years, including the Gel-Excite 7s, but her recent sneaker of choice is the Gel-Venture 9s.
What's so special about these kicks? These Amazon top-sellers are designed to be supremely breathable, with a mesh upper that allows for cooling airflow. Rear-foot gel technology aims to improve impact absorption, cushioning every contact with the ground to prevent jarring, painful foot strikes. Amplifoam cushioning provides additional support. The outsoles are grippy on a variety of surfaces, so you can concentrate on your goals without worrying about slipping and sliding.

Gearing up for a warm-weather getaway in the coming months? Grab this straw stunner that Richards called "amazing" on Instagram while it's under $30. It's spacious enough to fit a pair of flip-flops, shades, sunscreen and a book — basically, all of your beach-day essentials.
Like Richards, shoppers on Amazon have lots of good things to say about this tote. "This purse is deceptive. It holds a lot for its size! Great for summer," one fan noted. Another added, "I got many compliments on this purse and really enjoyed it. It is lightweight, which means a lot to me as I get older."
On an Amazon Live that dove into her gym bag essentials, Richards shared what makes this bra truly special. "This sports bra is great. It holds everything in." She added, "You know when [sports bras] are either too thick or too thin? This is the perfect thickness."
And that's not all: "I don't like when [sports bras are] too short, I like them to come down," Richards shared, gesturing to her mid-torso. "So, this is one of my favorite ones ... this is great, great, great."
This bra is great for layering too — throw it on under a blouse or a button-down shirt and you're ready for work, brunch or errands. It's made with stretchy, breathable, moisture-wicking fabric, so it's easy to pull on and off. Plus, it has removable padding and comes in sizes XS-3XL in 28 colors.
"These are great, these no-show socks. They come in a package of six!" Richards said on an Amazon Live recording. She admitted that when her "socks are showing," her friends make fun of her look — "[It's] a dorky vibe," she laughed. "The aesthetic is not good, guys, if you're wearing a sock with your workout shoes … They shouldn't show!"
It's not only about aesthetics, though. These socks are stretchy but secure (no slipping!), and they're made with breathable fabric that wicks away sweat and helps keep your feet stink-free. Most importantly, they're invisible once shoes are on — so whether you're donning them with sneakers or to add comfort to a pair of flats, you won't be giving off a "dorky vibe" whatsoever.
Even the ultra-glamorous have to doff their heels every once in a while, and Richards is a guiding light in that department. She shared on Amazon Live that she did "something" while she was running that left her with a limp. She needed something easy on her feet and snatched up the Austin Lift Classics for the job.
"They're literally like walking on a cloud," she gushed. "They're so comfortable, I don't even feel like I have shoes on."
A fan on Amazon agreed, writing, "These are the best shoes! So comfortable and stylish! I can wear them all day and my feet don’t hurt."
For her demo of the Nexxus thickening spray, Richards took us on a trip to Sin City. During an Amazon Live from her Las Vegas hotel room, she showed us how she gets ready for a night out when being fabulous really counts.
She pulled out the bottle of root-lifting spray that she claims gives you "the look and feel of 3,000 more strands" and admitted that once upon a time, she didn't always use it. But after she realized it was a game-changer, she said, "I will never not use that again."
According to the product description, it "lifts roots, visibly thickens strands, and protects hair from heat and breakage." The formula is made with good-for-hair ingredients like biotin, keratin and collagen amino acids, and should be applied to damp hair and massaged into the scalp for best results.

"A must for spring and summer," Richards said of these flip-flops while sharing the contents of her beach bag back in 2023. And with more than 15,000 five-star ratings on Amazon, it's safe to say shoppers think so too.
"Pay the extra cost, you'll have these for years!" one devoted wearer wrote. "I bought my first pair of Havaianas in high school. I remember being shocked by how much I paid for a pair of black flip-flops, but I bought them anyway. After wearing them for a few days, I was thrilled with the quality, and more thrilled as they continued to last through each subsequent summer. I bought them in 2002, and I didn't throw them away until 2013 when the sole of one finally cracked in half."
Choose from more than 25 colors in sizes 5-12.
During an Amazon Live video, Richards revealed that she never goes three hours without eating and shared some of her go-to snacks, including this protein-packed cereal from Three Wishes.
"My snacks are apples with peanut butter, string cheese, raw nuts, watermelon, pineapple — and I love cereal," she said, adding that she had eaten cereal just before filming her video. "I always choose a low-sugar, with protein, high-fiber cereal. There's one called Three Wishes that I like," she said. "I like the cinnamon one."
The brand's cereals are all plant-based and gluten-free. The cinnamon variety has just 130 calories and 3 grams of sugar per cup, but it still manages to squeeze in 8 grams of protein. With or without milk, its sweet crunch is ideal for all-day snacking.
Richards kept her look cute and casual in wide-leg Rag & Bone jeans for a trip to the farmer's market back in July 2024. The brand's jeans don't usually come cheap, but you can find some styles marked down to less than $100 at Nordstrom Rack.
This light-wash pair looks strikingly similar to the style Richards wore on Instagram, and all sizes are currently available. Before you grab these jeans for yourself, take note: Some shoppers say they run big, so consider sizing down.
"I cannot live without this product," Richards raved during an Amazon Live episode last year. "You can put your makeup on top of this, and I like the one that has a little bit of a tint to it. This is the best product."
Hailey Bieber, Sydney Sweeney and Lisa Rinna are also fans of this best-selling sunscreen, along with 10,000+ Amazon shoppers who've given it a perfect five-star rating.
"This tinted sunscreen is my savior," one person wrote in their review. "After using mineral sunscreen for the last few years, my eyes have suffered majorly. My eyes used to burn and be teary after an hour. Now, I use this sunscreen without worry of burning eyes. Not to mention, it's a perfect skin-tone match. The way this sunscreen blends to my skin and gives a natural, yet makeup look."
"It's wonderful," another added. "It's like a mousse and goes on easy. I love this stuff. I have been on the hunt for many years for the perfect one and this is it. Can't recommend it more."

"What would a cozy night in be without Uggs?" Richards asked during a recent Amazon Live. "They feel so good. They feel so nice on my feet."
If you've never had the pleasure of slipping your tootsies into these soft, warm slides, it's time. The Scuffette is a classic design that never goes out of style, has a grippy rubber sole for added traction and is less than $100. The signature sand color shown here is available in lots of sizes now, but that may not be the case for long given how popular these babies are.
"I recently purchased a pair of Ugg slippers for my mother, and I couldn't be happier with the decision!" one darling daughter commented. "She has always struggled with cold feet, especially during the winter months, and these slippers have been a game-changer for her. From the moment she slipped them on, she was amazed by the softness and warmth. The plush sheepskin lining is incredibly cozy, making her feel like she's walking on clouds."
