You Are Worth Full Price… Best investments from Bloomingdales Friends & Family Sale
/Do you know how many times I go into a client’s closet and find items that still have price tags on them? When I inquire about them, the answer is always the same… it was on sale! I love a bargain…. I grew up rummaging through bins at off-price stores looking for discounted designer items. I know more than anyone how hard it is to pass up a “good deal!” But when we total the cost of those 5 sale items that have never seen the light of day, they cost more than that cashmere cardigan you haven’t let yourself splurge on. If you had that cashmere cardigan, you probably would wear it multiple times a month.
I often speak to my clients about cost per wear. If you get a dress on sale for $150 and wear it once, that’s $150 for your one wearing. If you invest $400 on a perfectly tailored dress that makes you feel as if you can conquer the world and you wear it 20 times a season… that’s $20 a wearing; not to mention how fabulous and confident you feel when you wear it. When you wear pieces you love; you close deals, you get a promotion, you can do anything!
When you learn how to identify and fill your clothing needs with the right choices it become much less important how much an item costs. You must LOVE what you WEAR and WEAR what you LOVE… now that’s a good deal!!
I may not be so keen on shopping on the sale rack, but I still do love to help my clients invest wisely and get as much as they can with their money. For this reason, I love a department store’s friends & family event or websites seasonal discount. This is when a store takes about 25% off of most things they carry. This way you’re getting money off of prime merchandise, not waiting for something that has been looked over to be reduced. Here are some great investments from Bloomindales friends & family that is taking place now until April 9Th… they are taking 25% off regularly priced merchandise.
