I’m the farthest thing from an impulse buyer — if I’m not sure about it, I’m not going to buy it. This has resulted in me missing out on some amazing vintage finds, but I think if you’re going to spend money on something – especially something that’s expensive – you should be 100% sure you love it and you’ll wear it years from now.

I am constantly making wish lists (you can see some of the things I’m currently obsessing over here), but if I look at the list really closely, there are a few items that have remained on there for months if not years. I have lusted, drooled and cried tears (not literally, ok maybe literally) over Rick Owens’ signature leather jacket for at least five years. The Chloé studded Susan boots are my Podiatric porn. And I don’t think I need to explain myself when it comes to the Proenza Schouler PS11 bag.

Though I’m not in any place to make a big splurge (I just moved, afterall!) I can’t help but remind myself just how much I love the following four items that have surpassed the test of time on my wish list.

{ Rick Owens Leather Jacket }

{ Cartier Love Bracelet }

{ Proenza Schouler PS11 in Burgundy }

{ Chloe Susan Boots }
