Investment Dressing
Some clothes and accessories are worth splashing out a little more on because they will form the core of your wardrobe, looking great and attracting complements whenever you wear them. Quality fabrics and good tailoring is also far more sustainable than fast fashion. Investment pieces may prove more expensive to buy, but can be excellent value when you consider cost per wear.
Yes, you might be able to buy ten or twenty fast fashion dresses for the same prices as one immaculately cut investment piece, but where’s the point in buying something you’ll wear twice and that fails to flatter? You end up with a wardrobe full of clothes and nothing to wear.

your budget and
your lifestyle.
