Justify Your Investment Buys

Apr 12, 2023

 

OK. Are you sitting down?

 To really appreciate the long-term value of jewellery, or any investment buy I always look at the cost per wear; whether I am buying a cashmere jumper, jewellery....whatever, this is how I calculate the true cost of the investment based on wearing a piece per year.

As people move away from fast-fashion and more people think about what ends up in land-fills, more and more people are buying products that last.

So this is how I justify my investment buys. I've based my calculations on maybe wearing a piece every day, once a week or twice a week for a year-just to give you an idea of how you can do the calculation whenever you do this for yourself.

I hope it helps.



FIORENZA:

A modern and bold twisted torque bangle. This is a piece that will bring exciting originality to your outfit with its slick and elegant style.

So there you have it. A tip on how to calculate the cost per wear of any investment piece you buy.

The days of fast fashion are vanishing quickly (you can tell by how many companies did not run Black Friday sales last year, many of which sent out messages explaining why).


So I hope this little tip helps you buy better, which ends up cheaper in the long run.


Sending love as always.
