In our current economy, with people in every tax bracket minding their P’s and Q’s (pennies and quarters), it’s a good time to remember that quality never goes out of style. And yes, quality items normally carry higher price tags than their more shoddily-made cousins, so it helps to remember that you’re investing for the long-term. When you spread the cost of a quality handbag or coat or pair of shoes over the number of wearings during the next decade, suddenly your morning cup of coffee can look like a more expensive luxury.

And what a better way to begin raising your game than with today’s VPOD. This 1960s color-block wool coat by Andre Courreges would be a superb long-term acquisition. Slide one arm into this impeccably tailored beauty, feel the smooth silk taffeta lining and you’ll understand once and for all that quality beats quantity every time.

It’s a superb choice for a vintage fashionista!
