Although it would be nice to start my grown-up wardrobe afresh with one of everything from The Row, that’s far from a reality unless I win this weekend’s Lotto rollover. Instead, though, I am increasingly on the lookout for those premium pieces that feel and look luxurious, but still come in under the £500 mark. These investment buys still feel incredibly special, and they work hard making the rest of my predominantly high street wardrobe look expensive too. Of course, if you’re spending that much on pieces you want to be able to wear them forever, so it’s mostly minimalist, monochrome items I’m being drawn to, that I can guarantee won’t age.
As I’ve been scrolling through all the new-in drops recently, I’ve been bookmarking all the pieces that fit this description. Mainly so I can start considering which items are truly worth investing in for the new autumn season ahead, but also so I can share my finds with you. Turns out, there’s a lot of beautiful forever pieces in the new collections, ready to elevate your outfits in an instant. From smart wide-leg trousers, to crisp shirts—and I’m even starting to get excited about *whispers* outerwear again.
Keep scrolling and you’ll see the truly timeless new-in pieces I’ve wishlisted lately—and although they look like you’ve spent thousands on them, they’re all under £500. You can thank me later…
