Depending on the designer and fabric material, you may be making a significant investment in your wardrobe, but I find this kind of investment well worth it due to the versatility and longevity of this type of clothing as we all know that a good suit rarely goes out of style.

Some of my favorite designer choices are suits made by Zara and Tahari, which typically range anywhere from $40 to $600 when I am being budget conscious, and Prada or Versace blazers and suits on the other end of the spectrum. High fashion, cutting edge brands like these might be a little pricier then their Zara counterparts,, but when you are a working professional on the go like I am, I find that they are worth the extra investment.
