Over atBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing HQ, we're big fans of high-low dressing, that is to say, our wardrobes are a balanced mix of affordable, high-street finds, as well as quality, luxury buys that bolster our everyday wardrobes. Sound familiar? Like most shoppers, we can see the benefits of owning a beautiful designer handbag, or a pair of luxury leather shoes that combine longevity and versatility, but we also know that Arket does some of the best white shirts in the business, and Marks and Spencer accessories aren't easily topped. So, when it comes to shopping for new pieces to refresh our wardrobes, we've managed to put together a list of go-to brands that always deliver on design, price and quality, and thankfully, you won't have to empty your bank account to be able shop them.
If you are in a position to invest in your wardrobe this season, we generally recommend buying less and of better quality for a responsible approach to shopping, and just one or two of these key buys can be cherished for longer, and elevate even the most basic of outfits. Win, win.
Where and what we choose to spend our money on will vary depending on personal taste, but after many years of shopping experience, I'm confident that I can put together an edit of premium pieces that will really speak your language. Some are seasonal heroes that will make the most of the sunshine, others are anti-trend buys that you'll want to wear whatever the weather, but all of them are head-swivellingly good, so just know that you're in safe hands.
To see which pieces this editor thinks are worth spending a little extra on, keep scrolling for 30 of the best new season designer, high-street and premium buys to invest in now. Expect plenty of pretty dresses, covetable handbags, perfect jeans and summer sandals ahead.
