What Luxury Fashion Item Should You Splurge On?

For you, life is lived in the mind. So, when you want to put your thoughts down on paper, sign an important check, or commemorate an event, you should do it in style. A luxury pen, like a Mont Blanc, is also a subtle but instantly recognizable luxury accessory. If you want to go really crazy, the Montegrappa Chaos Sylvester Stallone fountain pen runs $65,471. One thing's for sure...you'll never lose your pen again, because you'll be much too obsessed with it to ever let it go!

You love quality almost as much as you enjoy a cozy cup of something hot after a walk in the brisk morning air. A fisherman's sweater is just the thing for you. It will only get softer and more beloved over time. For true luxury, try a hand-knit one from Ireland or Scotland. If you have an Irish or Scottish surname, you may even be able to get one in your clan's knitting pattern!

A Burberry trench hits three marks: classic good looks, recognizable status, and lasting heirloom quality. This trench, no matter what the cut, will never ever go out of style. Whether you buy a vintage coat or this season's version, you'll look great!

You're a busy person with lots to do, and you need an accessory that will enhance your life beyond fashion. A good watch, like a Rolex or Cartier, is a true investment piece that will last your entire lifetime and likely that of whomever you leave it to and their children as well. It will also lift up almost anything you wear, making even your most basic clothes appear to be high-end style.

You've already got loads of style and may be breaking the bank! Your next piece should be a pair of highly coveted sunglasses, like Dior aviators or Gucci 1088s. They'll amp up anything you're wearing and prevent eye wrinkles in the process!

Everyone's always a little gaga over the latest shoe trend, but what about a pair that will stand the test of time and go with almost everything you have? You love to travel, and you're always on the move, so a classic shoe is a good investment. For women, try the Dior patent leather peep-toe pump; for men, Crockett & Jones makes a wonderful shoe. Both are meant to last for the lifetime of the wearer, with proper care. The shoe will also end up being the most comfortable pair you own.
