It was a hard week at work this week, so it couldn’t be helped when I started searching for the best pieces to buy online. I can’t help it. Retail therapy is my chocolate, my comfort. But looking through all the choices, made me realize that I have nothing to wear for summer. Go figure. I haven’t made the adjustment between spring wardrobe to summer wardrobe yet. In fact, I don’t have anything for my summer wardrobe. It’s the constant thought of ‘I need new clothes.’ And I suppose of months trying to not splurge, I do need new clothes. Better yet, I deserve new clothes. And because of the non-splurging, I have some actual real money I can spend on a new wardrobe – that’s two reasons. I don’t need a third.

These are my top fave fifteen pieces to buy online this week:

The funny thing is, I’m not even halfway done. This covers only a few of the outfits I’m planning on rocking this summer. But my expensive taste really doesn’t help me. But you’ve got to have a good balance, sometimes you need to step away from the high street and really treat yourself. It doesn’t get to happen often, but when it comes around it’s like a mini-Christmas. If you’ve been second guessing yourself about something you’ve wanted for a while, then get it! I bet you deserve it! There’s nothing wrong with treating yourself once in a while!

Having a weakness for designer pieces doesn’t mean you always have to break your bank! Yes, you can have Gucci tastes on a Topshop budget (well, almost!). Outlet websites such as The Real Real, the Outnet or Vestiaire Collective are great to get those premium prices down and find amazing bargains. All you need is to know some tips and tricks! For instance, on Vestiaire Collective, you have the possibility to negotiate the price in private with the buyer up to 48 hours after they published the item, by clicking on “Make An Offer.” Doubting it’s a real piece? Check out How To Tell If A Designer Bag Is Fake! 

Other than that, we know how boring it is to scroll to find one great piece, so we thought we’d help! We rounded up the 21 best designer pieces to shop before they sell out (and trust us, it’s usually a matter of hours)!
