30 Shoes, Bags, and Jeans That Will Never Ever Go Out of Style
I can say from experience that it feels great to spend your money on something you know you're going to wear constantly for years to come, as opposed to trendy items that could look dated sooner rather than later. When I was a younger, less experienced shopper, I learned this the hard way. The misconception about investment purchases is that they're expensive, but that doesn't always have to be the case. The unofficial definition of a sartorial investment buy is that it's a purchase that's money well spent because you wear it over and over.
Shoes, bags, and jeans are arguably the items we're most likely to wear countless times—if they're timeless, that is. So I compiled a very curated assortment of ten pieces from each category that will never go out of style (in my humble opinion, at least). These chic pieces will elevate your wardrobe for years to come.
