Although it’s easy to make a habit of shopping based on ‘what’s in’, this isn’t always a good idea.
Buying according to trends can incur debts pretty quickly and just because a piece is fashion forward doesn’t mean it will suit all body shapes.
Investment pieces in contrast, actually stand the test of time.
Each week we aim to introduce a new piece for your wardrobe and provide three options from where to buy, catering for all budgets.
Save – €15 at Penneys
Ah, Penneys. Does it ever let us down? The answer to this is a big fat NO. Like most Irish women we are big fans and it’s possibly the only place you’re likely to buy an outfit and still have change of €50. We are loving these monochrome beauties, a true style steal that look like they cost more than €15.
Steal – £45 (€55) at Topshop
These are the type of shoes you will wear time and time again, as they can be paired with anything from your favourite dress to boyfriend jeans to tailored trousers. We love shoes, both of the practical and non practical variety. However, these are sensible (in colour) and pretty too. A winner all round!
Splurge – €149 at River Island
For shoes that stand out, these beauts from River Island are a must-have. The fringed detailing adds a fashion forward touch and you can practically see Kate Moss rocking them with a trusty leather jacket. They are sure to prove a talking point, whatever you’re wearing. WE LOVE THEM.
