AI GeneratedThe speaker discusses high-end clothing items that, despite their high price tags, have proven to be worthwhile investments due to their versatility, fit, and frequency of use. He emphasizes that the true value of a garment lies in how often it is worn and how it makes the wearer feel, rather than just the brand or the price.
I always find it difficult to part with my money when it comes to more expensive clothing
and I don't buy expensive clothing that often.
But when I do, I always worry if I'm going to wear that item enough to justify the price
and if I actually need it in my wardrobe or not.
And sure, some of the more expensive items that I've bought over the years
have been a waste of money, unfortunately.
But today I want to talk about the ones that I'd happily replace in a heartbeat
if they disappeared from my wardrobe tomorrow.
So the first item on the list, and it's a banger, is my Our Legacy Origin Jacket.
Now this is the most expensive jacket I've ever bought
and I think it's the most I've ever spent on any item of clothing in my wardrobe.
It cost me around £500.
And I know Our Legacy are charging too much for a denim jacket here
but with how much I wear this thing, it's been worth every single penny to me.
Anytime I go away anywhere, this jacket always comes with me
and if I could only own one jacket in my whole wardrobe,
I think it would be this one right now.
And I know some of you will look at this and think it's just a basic denim jacket
and you're not entirely wrong.
But I think that's its biggest strength.
It goes with everything in my wardrobe.
I can dress it up, I can dress it down.
It fits me great and I never get bored of wearing it.
I honestly wouldn't change one thing about it, apart from the price of course.
Next up, we've got my Ouray Infantry Boots.
I wanted these boots for about five years before I bought them
and I was always worried about buying them because Ouray are based in the US.
But I was worried about all the normal stuff like shipping costs,
returns if they weren't quite right and just wasting money basically.
Anyway, a few months ago I decided to finally buy them
and I wish I hadn't waited five years to get them
because they were everything I hoped for.
They fit me great, they're comfortable, the quality is really nice
and most of all, they look great.
Whenever the weather allows it, I'm in these boots
because they work so well with the rest of my wardrobe
and they suit my style perfectly.
So yeah, if anything happened to this pair,
I'm not going to be waiting five years to pick up another pair.
I'd buy them immediately.
Next up, I've got a shirt from Ronning.
So I actually did already buy this shirt again, kind of,
because I have it in another colour
and then they dropped this version which I preferred over the one I already had.
So I had to pick it up.
But I love a Czech shirt and I don't have that many of them in my wardrobe
so when I find one that works for me, I'm gonna get it.
It's lightweight and it's flowy
so it's perfect for the heat wave we're having right now
and I love the fit.
It has a slight crop but nothing too drastic.
And is it the best shirt in the world?
No, it's not but it's the one that I'm finding myself reaching for
time and time again at the moment
because it works so well with everything.
So next up, I've got the NN07K trousers
and I love the look of these trousers so much
that I bought them in a linen version
and also the regular cotton version.
I picked up the linen pair mainly for holidays
but I'm so glad to have them in this heat wave we're having right now.
Filming b-roll for this video was brutal.
Did I mention we're having a heat wave?
But I have found it quite difficult to find decent fitting trousers
straight off the rack this year
but these fit me great.
They've got a relaxed straight cut which I love right now
and the pleats add some depth
and also help to smarten them up a bit.
The quality is great, they're really comfortable to wear
and they go well with my boots, my sneakers and my mules
so there's not much they don't work with.
There are a few different versions of these trousers
but I'll leave the pairs that I've got linked in the description box
if you want to check them out
along with everything else from this video.
The next item is another jacket from Our Legacy
and this is their mini jacket.
The silhouette's what drew me to this piece.
It's got a more fashion-forward cut
but you can style it in so many different ways.
You can make it look more casual and edgy if you like
or you can dress it up so it looks smart and elegant.
It really is such a versatile item.
I've had it a long time now and I've worn it a ton
so it's been worth every penny for me.
Next up we've got a pair of camo pants from Double RL.
Now since I got these trousers I've worn them non-stop.
They are quite a loud pair of pants
so it can be difficult to wear them over and over again
without it looking like you're wearing the same outfit all the time
but I don't really care about that.
Actually what am I even on about?
People can't even see them when I'm wearing them.
But these are made from 100% cotton
and they're great for the warmer weather.
They're not too thick and heavy
but they've still got some structure to them.
They're based on 1940s military pants
so they've got a lot of the old school details
like the side pockets and the monkey pocket on the bum
which adds a bit of character.
And the camo pattern on them is one of my favourite styles of camo print
and I think Ralph did a great job with these
so good job Ralph.
Okay so let's do a pair of shorts next
because it is summer after all
and the pair that I always find myself reaching for time and time again
is my Bodie field shorts.
These were pretty much all I wore last summer
and I've been living in them on the hot days this summer so far too.
I've worn these hundreds and hundreds of times
and I do love a longer pair of shorts
but on the really hot days you need a shorter short.
I do anyway and these are my go-to.
And I'm not usually a big fan of branding when it comes to clothing
but I do like what it adds to these shorts
and you don't see that many people where I live anyway wearing Bodie
so you're not really going to bump into anyone wearing the same shorts as you.
But yeah I love these shorts and I'd buy them again in a heartbeat
if I didn't have them already.
Next up we've got the Our Legacy camion mules
and it actually took me a while to warm to these
but I love them these days and I do prefer them to the boot version.
But mules for me in the summer are an absolute essential
especially for when I'm on holiday.
It sounds like I go on holiday a lot.
I don't but when I'm on holiday I do need a pair.
I just love how easy mules are to throw on and off
and because this pair look quite smart and they look like a proper shoe
you can easily dress them up if you want to.
The quality is also great on them and I know they're not for everyone.
A lot of people think these are absolutely hideous
and I get it but they do it for me.
Next up we've got a bag from La Mer.
Now I wouldn't say I'm someone who's obsessed with bags
but I couldn't live without them these days
and this one is my absolute favourite at the moment.
I've got to come clean though.
I did actually get this bag through some work I did with my Teresa over on Instagram
but if anything happened to it I'd buy it again with my own money in a heartbeat.
This bag is my daily carrier.
It comes with me everywhere I go every single day
and I love the netted details on it.
The netted strap also makes it really comfortable to wear
and it actually holds quite a lot of stuff
even though it doesn't look like it would.
The only downside to it is the netting can get caught on quite a lot of stuff
but I like to live on the edge.
Next up we've got a t-shirt from Bode.
Now I have actually got quite a few shirts from Bode now
and that's not a brag it's just a fact
but if anything happened to all of them,
the one if I could only have one to replace
it would be this one because I wear it most
and I actually think this is probably my most worn t-shirt in my whole wardrobe right now.
It's perfectly oversized without being sloppy
and I love the colour and design on it.
And just like the our legacy jacket from earlier,
Bode are charging too much for this t-shirt
but it's still worth every penny to me.
And some of you might be thinking why it's not that great on paper
and it's nothing special and I know that
but I wear it constantly and it's usually the t-shirt that I reach for first
so it's doing something right for me
and I think that's one of the most interesting things about fashion.
The pieces we get attached to aren't always the best made things
or the most impressive.
Sometimes they're just the ones that make us feel like us
and that we find ourselves reaching for time and time again.
The next item is my our legacy Leyden necklace
and this necklace that you can see right here
is something I've been wearing pretty much daily for years now.
Does it look like a dog collar chain kind of thing?
Yeah it does.
And is it the most impressive and beautiful looking necklace in the whole world?
No it's not but I love it.
I like how chunky it is and what it adds to an outfit
and I like that I can wear it with tops with a lower neckline
or underneath my t-shirts and it adds a bit of edge to my outfits.
It's kind of become a part of me in a way
because I can feel a bit lost when I'm not wearing it
and I actually thought I'd lost it at an Airbnb not that long ago
and the first thing I did was to whip out my phone
just to check that they still sold them just in case I needed to replace it.
Looking back through this list one thing I've realised
is most of these items aren't necessarily the best value items in the world
and some of them are definitely overpriced
but they all have something in common
and that's that I wear them over and over again
and I get a lot of enjoyment out of wearing them.
I hope you enjoyed this one.
