Investment Pieces I've been wearing 12 to 17 years and still wearing them.

I am doing a low buy year 2024, I slow down my shopping and spend more time to reflect my wardrobe. I've found 8 clothing pieces and shoes which are considered my investment pieces, I've been wearing them 12 to 17 years. Why they become the investment pieces?

Yes, I am going to do more shopping my closet this year, see what kind of outfits I will discover 😀

I really enjoy your videos and like to see that you appreciate quality items, new or thrifted. I also respect that you will fix a loved item rather than throw it away.

Thank you for your nice commenting. Yes, I think Good quality items are repairable and worth repairing, choosing good quality is in the end saving money compared to buying cheap but poor quality items.

love the video :) such a good point about making sure we value pieces that allow for weight fluctuation!

Yes, a lesson I've learnt over the years is that I don't feel comfortable to wear tight /bodycorn clothes anymore, I prefer clothing which is fitted but still allowing me to eat and drink comfortably, putting or losing a few kilos.

I love your appreciation for the different elements of your clothes: practicality, aesthetics, emotions, composition, stories

Thanks, I love the key words you choose for the video, they nail the points

Thanks for the video! One of my favorite pieces is a vintage long drop waist black denim dress with short sleeves and shoulder pads. It has buttons on the side and back. It has a slight minimalistic and "asian" style which was popular in the 80s for a bit. Its very durable and practical and I've worn it for all different occasions. I usually steer clear of dropwaist styles, so it really surprised me!

Thanks for sharing. I have been holding on a drop waist dress for a few years, it's made of wool blend, very soft, nice print, but I haven't worn it yet because I don't think drop waist looks good on me. Maybe I should give it a try.

I love this video, it a good inspiration to value my clothes more. I have spent some good money but still want to buy something new each season, though my clothes are still in very good shape. It helps to re-think my shopping habits!

[@mycolourfulvintagewardrobe9844]

Thank you. It's normal that we still want to buy more even though we have enough. This year practicing low buy helps me to buy less, so far if I buy, most of time I buy what I am really going to wear instead of a lot of fancy clothes.

I love your pieces!! The black top looks so elegant 💕

[@mycolourfulvintagewardrobe9844]

Thank you. I like the top so much, if I would sew my own clothes, I'd like to sew a similar one.
