If you had £300 to buy something classic in the sales

[VikingNorthUtsire]

What would you go for?

I'd like to get myself something that I could still be wearing in 20 years time.

Camel coat or trench. Practical, stylish but understatedly so, and very classy.

Good quality cashmere jumper.

Barbour coat
Or
Decent handbag (I got a gorgeous symthson tote reduced for 1k to 350 last year)

A camel coat.

I’d get a smart coat.

Stud earrings with a precious stone in them - I think you'll wear out a coat within 20 years.

Really good classic things don’t tend to end up in the sales. I reckon sales are good for trends.

I know there are exceptions to this in the lower price bracket where I normally shop - good boots or a good jumper

I'm not good at details though. I think I would miss the little things that are the difference between something being timeless and something starting to look dated.

Jaeger coat
