5 Investment Pieces For Work
Dressing to impress is important at work. I consider myself lucky that my job is rather flexible in what I can wear to the office most days. Except for days involving important meetings or time spent in court everyone is free to wear fairly casual clothing. Despite this I have always felt that it is important for all women to have a few investment pieces that can help pull them through any situation. Below I have listed my top 5 pieces that are worth an investment.
5 Investment Pieces For Work
ONE // The Perfect Suit. Spring for a triple threat comprised of a jacket, skirt, and pants. Make sure it is well tailored and also take advantage of wearing the pieces separately too.
TWO // Gold Watch. This is not the time for a digital watch. Choose a fancy watch that is great quality. I like ones with simplistic designs and slightly oversized.
THREE // Trench Coat. Sometimes all people see is your outwear so it needs to be nice. A trench coat is a classic shape that never goes out of style.
FOUR // Fabulous Heels. Choose shoes with a medium heel that are comfortable enough for running around in all day. The first color to purchase is black. Every woman needs black heels.
FIVE // Leather Tote. Your tote should be in a neutral for versatility and large enough to carry papers home in. Avoid "it bags" and go for a bag with minimum hardware and with some structure. Since it will be something you use almost everyday it is worth investing in a beautiful bag that will last for year. I previously posted about totes here.

It was only in the last few years that I have come to realize the value of a good investment. Before that I always spent my money on a lot of trendy cheaper items that consisted of subpar quality and went out of style in a few seasons instead of saving up to purchase classic items that can last years or even a lifetime. A few things to remember when purchasing an investment handbag is make sure it will withstand passing trends, look great for years to come, and is something you really love. This, this, and this are among my favorites. You can see some more of my favorites below.
