Fads and trends come and go, but classic investment pieces are the building blocks of your working wardrobe. These timeless essentials will take you from day to night, from lunch to cocktails, from cubicle to corner office and will never, ever go out of style. They are the staples that go with whatever trends you want to showcase. For me, my great big Tod's bag, my Manolo Blahnik black Mary Jane pumps that even Carrie Bradshaw would love, my Burberry trenchcoat, the little black dress (all seven), the sturdy pant or pencil skirt suit and even the chic pair of Tom Ford shades were worth the splurge.
Tell me in the comment what fashions do you think are worth breaking the bank for?
