[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, here.  Thanks for sharing ladies.  Unfortunately, I don't have much reason to dress up.  Work is business casual, as would be any event we attend.  Maybe I'll look into a personal shopper - not so I can spend $10k, but so I can look a bit more... polished?  On top of my lack of $10k to spend, I don't think I'm very good with fashion, which probably doesn't help.

I'd love to hear from more of you.  [/quote]

I think it takes more thoughts to look good in casual than formal occasions. More fun as well.

I do not spend $10K each year, but last year I bought some pieces I really wanted  -

Trench coat  ~$1k
2 suits for mix and match ~ $3k
Dress shirts/blouses ~$800
Scarves ~$900
Hand bag  ~ $2k
4 pairs of shoes/boots ~ 2k
Plus fun dresses and jeans and casual stuff for a lot less

All line items except the last can be used for years to come.

OP here.  Thanks for your reply.  I do have a couple pair of $300 boots and a $1k handbag, so I get the idea of buying pieces that will last for many years.  For those who don't believe, there is a difference in quality between a $50 pair of shoes and a $300 pair of shoes.   For me, though, I could never go out and spend all $10k in one year; I think my life style does not call for it.  I'll will keep on investing in one piece at a time that I know will last; next on my list is a trench coat.
