For most women designer clothes are out of their reach or don't believe the price tag is worth the money, happy shopping for women's clothes at high street retailers, then there's the women who wouldn't be seen dead on the high street and wear nothing but designer labels.
However, we all deserve a treat every now and then, and many women are starting to splurge on things a little more pricey as a reward for all their hard work with a few key pieces of designer clothes. For the high street shopper, the world of designer fashion can be somewhat intimidating, but with the right advice and a strict budget it's easy to know what you should spend your money on to get the most out of designer clothes for your money.
Little black dress
A fashion classic and definitely a must have for any wardrobe, a little black dress from a good designer will see you through season after season. The best thing about a little black dress is that it's ever so versatile, so it's certainly top of the list when it comes to value for money, smarten it up for the workplace with a shirt and court shoes, add stilettos and leggings for a night on the town or glam it up with jewellery and accessories for a special occasion.
Think timeless
One of the most important things to remember when buying designer clothes is to go for something that won't go out of date. This can be tricky as most designer fashion is based around all the latest trends, but be conscious that they'll soon be out of date. Choose a piece that you can wear again and again it's all about cost per wear so think about how often you're likely to wear it.
A good handbag
Definitely the best buy a woman can make, a high quality, timeless and versatile designer handbag will last a lifetime and never go out of date, and in fact it will look better with age. Go for a handbag that you really love in a versatile colour that could be easily changed to be dressed casually or formally and you'll have the best fashion investment piece.
Things to avoid
Forget designer sunglasses, you'll hardly wear them and they can easily be broken, you're likely to find very similar cheaper ones on the high street anyway. Don't choose designer clothes for the latest fashion trend, as it's likely to go out of fashion very quickly and you won't get your money's worth. You're also best sticking to the high street for tops, tights, leggings and costume jewellery because these are all things that can be found cheaply elsewhere and can quickly change a look.
The main thing to remember when choosing to treat yourself to a few key pieces of designer clothing is that the occasional piece can work wonders for your wardrobe and going over the top can cloud your fashion style. The high street and online clothes shops have all the latest must have trends in abundance at low prices. Stay shopping savvy and think before you buy to find the wardrobe that works for you and your budget.
