It’s always difficult when people ask you to describe your personal style. No one likes to be put in a box, nor do they care to be beholden to a specific type of look in the event they decide to shake things up a bit somewhere down the road (and don’t we all?). However, whether we like it or not, our own current aesthetics can likely still be encapsulated by a few words of the English language. Mine? Minimalist. But also not thoroughly minimalist, because I still love a good statement jewelry piece, flashy shoes, or even a Technicolor coat from time to time, should the occasion call for it. For the majority of the time, though, I enjoy a wardrobe full of versatile separates and accessories that can be mixed and matched thanks to their pared-down, subtle qualities. A sleek coat, tailored trousers, timeless knits, artful earrings—you get the idea. If any of this resonates with you, then today’s shopping roundup is going to be of interest. Below, shop 22 pieces that will round out any pared-down, clean minimalistic wardrobe this autumn.
7 Investment Pieces That Are Less Than $30 Per Wear
I’ve believed in buying investment pieces for as long as I can remember and have always preferred saving for big items over regular fast-fashion purchases. It’s actually something I’ve practiced ever since I was younger. One of my first big fashion buys was the result of babysitting money I had saved up over a summer. I pooled everything I earned and bought my first investment piece—a black nylon Prada bag—that I still own today.
Since then, not much has changed when it comes to my approach to shopping. Each season, I’ll identify a few major investment pieces to add to my closet and dedicate my wardrobe budget to those things. I’ll still add some more-affordable trend-forward pieces at times, but it’s investment pieces—those high-quality items and elevated basics, the backbone of my wardrobe—that end up getting the most wear. When I break it down with the cost-per-wear calculations, there’s no doubt that my investment purchases have been my smartest buys. Ahead, see seven of my best investment piece buys that ring in under $30 per wear.
