I don't buy a
lot of high-end designer clothes...I have a gotten a few pieces I really liked here and there...I do
Chloé pants...but mainly I will buy stuff from designers like Nanette Lepore, Diane vonFurstenberg, Rebecca Taylor, Theory, that price range...plus I buy a lot a lot a lot of vintage...
Shoes and bags, on the other hand, I am much more inclined to buy designer because they get so much use. the extra money is so worth it, to have the quality and lifespan of an item and, with shoes, comfort.
