What clothing items do you splurge on?

What clothing items (shoes, pants, shirts, etc) do you not mind spending a large amount of money on and why? For example, some people splurge on bras and dont mind spending upwards of $100 on a single bra, because they feel they are buying a quality bra in a hard to find size that makes them look thinner and will last for 5 years. or something. Some people do it for the brand name. So what do you splurge on and why? Oh and what brands are they that you splurge on?!

What clothing items do you splurge on?
The best items to splurge on are investment pieces that will last a long time like coats, shoes, and handbags. Jewelry is also something I like to spend a little bit more money on, because I can wear them forever.





I'm a graduate student, so I don't exactly have the money to buy couture or black label items. However, when I do feel like buying accessories, I make sure they are of the best quality. For instance, I recently bought a pair of white Chanel sunglasses for $400 and a Club Monaco coat for $350. I also bought a pair of really good, black suede pumps from Cole Haan.





My philosophy has always been that it is a better deal to save up your money to buy one item of high quality rather than spend the same amount of a dozen items. A very well-made accessory or coat will instantly dress up a tee shirt and jeans and will last you forever.





Choose your items carefully. Do your research before you shop.

I know I'm a guy, but all these things and places have women's stuff too... Those shoes I mentioned look sexy on women depending what pants/shorts are being worn with them...and so do some of those shirts and tight buffalo jeans. I'm not a fan of rips, but some rips on women's jeans look super sexy..





you may not care about a guys opinion, but I just thought I'd throw it out there...
Reply:It depends on what it is and how much I like it, I've spent $50.00 on that really cute buckle belt from the mall. I've spent $50.00 a piece on go go boots, I've spent hundreds on makeup, makeup is the most that I spend my money on. I always look for sale items on the clothes, I don't like to spend lots of money on clothes or bras or anything like that, unless I just love it and have to have it, the most I've spent on a single item is $50.00, unless it's makeup, I've gotta have the makeup, I'll spend more on that!
