Winter shoes, especially dressy waterproof boots.
Good quality wool, silk, etc for tops. Coats you need to keep you warm and/or dry. Socks. Formal dresses. |

| Good shoes. Leather bags. Natural fiber clothes. Make sure you are paying for quality materials and workmanship, not a label. |

Doesn’t really require “extra money” |

Big yes to bras! I recently (like 1-1.5 yrs ago) bought some "fancy" bras, instead of my usual $10/$20 VS special and WOW what a difference. I don't know if I'll ever be able to go back to my cheapies. For reference they were like $250 ish but I got them on sale for $150-$200 and got 4. Huge sticker shock for my frugal self, but I've loved them. |

This. Just because it is expensive with a label the many misprounounce or have never heard of because it isn't Gucci or LV doesn't mean it is quality. Also be sure it fits you. Ill fitted clothing will wear out faster because it's doing double duty of trying ot stay in place. Go up a size or 2. No one will know except you. With that I pay a little more for: coats sweaters shoes (boots and sneakers mostly) belts and lately wool pants like the pure wool my mom's pants were made of in the 80's not the synthetic blended wool-like fabrics that seem to be everywhere. |

| One winter, I reached for my wool and cashmere and discovered moth holes in several pieces. Wouldn't have happened with synthetic fibers, so there's that. |

| Clothing from before 2010. Even new luxury/ supposedly high quality brand things are not as good anymore as a whole. |
