5 designer investments

I believe in the "price per wear" theory. If you buy something for $X and divide it by the number of times you wear it, then you get its true value. For example, my favorite Chanel sunglasses were about $300 and I've worn them about 300 times. Therefore, they really cost $1 a day to wear; I would definitely pay $1 a day to wear them too. I also know that we're still young and we don't have thousands of dollars to spend on designer pieces, even if they are investments. Due to all of this I've compiled a list of five key designer pieces under $300 that will undoubtably have low "prices per wear":


1. PUCCI SCARF - You can wear it anywear and the classic print will never go out of style.


$120 @ Neiman Marcus


2. LOUIS VUITTON SMALL LEATHER GOODS (wallets, makeup bags, etc.) - They come in really great shapes and sizes and will last for years.


$230 @ eluxury.com


3. MISSONI SCARF - The beautiful colors and striped or zig-zag pattern can put a little punch into any outfit all year round.


$278 @ net-a-porter.com


4. GUCCI BELT - A good belt is a staple in any wardrobe and the logo buckle on this belt is great.


$280 @ Neiman Marcus


5. PRADA SUNGLASSES - The perfect size, shape and color.


$200 @ Saks Fifth Avenue


So girls, start saving up! You've got a lot of investing to do!!
