If you had $2000 to spend on clothing right now, what specific items would you buy, and from where? Would you splurge on a few pricey items or buy more, cheaper (but still quality) items? (This has no personal significance; I don't actually have this much to spend, but I'm just curious)
This question’s been sitting in my inbox for ages because I wanted a time when I had more than two minutes to think about it, but I’m afraid my answer is a bit boring - I’m practical. I would buy high quality basics (solid button downs, LBDs, black/gray skirts, cardigans, shoes). I’d get not-quite-as-HQ-but-still-decent items that I’d wear for awhile but not as often (brighter colors, prints, etc). And I’d snag oodles of dresses - I’ve noticed a serious lack of dresses in my life, but dresses have a long cycle in between wears, so they don’t get nearly as much wear and tear and don’t always need to be super high quality.
As for specific items, I’ve had my eye on a polka dotted button down from J.Crew, a paisley skirt from Madewell and a couple of dresses from Modcloth. I’m also in the market for some new shoes - double monks, chelsea boots, and new loafers, so I’d snag some of those as well.
