10 Wardrobe Items Worth Splurging On

Plus Golden Goose Sneakers On Sale

Hi Friends- Today’s post features the “10 Wardrobe Items Worth Splurging On (& Saving For)”. Growing up we did not have a lot of money. When there was something I really loved I would have to save up for a long time before I could purchase the item. Below I’m sharing 10 items that I feel are worth saving up for and splurging on.

I recommend saving up for the pieces you absolutely love because those are the ones that you’re going to get the most use out of. These investment wardrobe items are must-have capsule wardrobe staples that every woman should have.

10 Wardrobe Items Worth Splurging On & Saving For

1. Chloe Marcie Small Leather Saddle Bag.

The first wardrobe item worth splurging on is the Chloe Marcie small crossbody bag. I recommend going with a neutral color. In my wardrobe, this bag gets more use than any other bag. I’ve had it for years. It’s classic and goes with almost everything because I have it in a neutral color. Sizewise it’s perfect for day-to-day. My phone, wallet, and a couple of other little things fit inside easily. This chloe crossbody bag is definitely worth saving up for.

2. Equipment Slim Signature Silk Shirt.

A beautiful silk blouse that fits you well is the next wardrobe item worth splurging on. This is such an easy piece to dress up or down. It’s versatile and classic. You can wear it for work with a skirt or dress pants. It also works for going out with a pair of jeans and heels.

3. LAMARQUE Donna Leather Jacket.

A great leather jacket is on my list for pieces that are worth the investment. If you’re not into leather, a denim jacket also works as a must-have fall or spring layer. I wear mine with dresses and a pair of chic sneakers. Also with an elevated white t-shirt and jeans. I’ve had this one for years. Make sure the one you add to your wardrobe is one that you love.

4. Amanda Uprichard Blazer.

The fourth closet item worth splurging on is a black classic fitted blazer. Mine is probably eight or nine years old and I still get so much use out of it. Look for a blazer that is versatile. One that you can wear casually with the sleeves rolled up, but also one you can dress up and wear for business meetings. When you’re finding a wardrobe item that is worth saving up for, make sure that it’s versatile and can work with a lot of different things in your wardrobe. I would not recommend saving up and splurging on items that are trend items. They’re going to come in and out of style.

5. Veronica Beard Floral Dress.

Ny next splurge-worthy wardrobe item is a silk floral dress.Look for a dress that works for daytime with sneakers and easily dresses up for night with heels. It may look like a high price tag at first but it’s worth the money in my opinion because it’s an item that you’ll have, wear, and love for years to come.

6. Maya Brenner Designs 14K Yellow Gold Initial Necklace.

Saving up for and splurging on a delicate necklace in gold or silver is worth it. I wear my necklaces all the time. I remember thinking when I purchased my first one that it was a lot to spend but I really needed something that I could wear all the time and didn’t have to take off. 15 years later I am still wearing them every day.

Look for great quality because you won’t have to think about taking them off. A delicate necklace adds so much to your look. It can help shape your outfit and give it a little bit of something extra. Spending your money on a few quality pieces is better than buying a bunch of costume jewelry items that tarnish or that you don’t wear all the time. I rather have fewer high quality items that I love even if I have to save up for them.

7. Natori Underwire T-Shirt Bra.

It is worth spending the money on a great neutral bra. You want to think of your undergarments as the foundation of your wardrobe. When you find a bra that you feel great in and that fits you comfortably it makes your clothes look better.

8. Saint Laurent Lou Mini YSL Camera Crossbody Bag.

I get so much use out of this Saint Laurent black crossbody bag. Like the chloe bag I can use it for daytime but I can also style it for evening. It elevates any look and it’s a piece that I will have forever. This is definitely an item that I would recommend saving for and splurging on.

9. L’AGENCE Silk Cami.

A neutral silk cami is worth splurging on in my experience. I get so much use out of mine. In the colder months, I wear it under sweaters and let it peek out from the top or the bottom. I love to style it with skirts or jeans and heels. I’ve had this one in my closet for years and have gotten so much use out of it. It is such a versatile piece that is worth spending your money on.

10. IRO Shavani Fringe-Trimmed Jacket.

My last item that I feel is worth saving up for is a structured knit jacket like this one. This is one of my favorite jackets and I recommend it all the time. It has been available for years because it’s such a great piece. I have worn this with formal dresses for weddings. I’ve also worn it with a t-shirt and jeans. A well-made structured jacket like this one is versatile and worth the price tag.

Sometimes when you look at a cost for an item it may seem high but you want to think more about the cost per wear. This basically means how many times are you going to wear this item. Is it a classic item that will be in style for years to come? Does it fit you well? Do you love it? Can you see yourself wearing it for several seasons? If the answer is yes to those questions, then it’s probably worth splurging on. Finding the pieces that are worth saving up for and splurging on will elevate your closet and your style.
