" Cost Per Wear " do You BUY into It ??

" Real luxury is understanding quality and having the time to enjoy it " - G.Bruce Boyer

Being a Lover of Style and Retail shopping,  I'm always on the look out for New ways to justify my spending habbits. Recently I discovered a great way in which you and I can look great!  By investing into classic,  quality fashion pieces using the " Cost Per Wear " theory .This is nothing new,  in fact it is a selling Technique used by Fashion personnels to persuade consumers to purchase what is being sold. 

The formula :
Item price ( divided)  By the number of times worn or used  = Cost Per Wear

Here is an example of how it can be applied when making a purchase.  The Beautiful Red Bag ( seen below)  is a Cambridge Satchel Handbag . The cost of the bag is 200 USD, let's say I will be using the bag 20 times within a one year period .

How the formula works : 200 (divided) by 20 = 10 USD ( Cost per wear equals to 10 dollars) which suggests I will be spending 10 Dollars each time I wear the Bag. Not bad right? 

In my opinion this is a great way to invest into your wardrobe with quality garments and accessories without feeling guilty. 

To do this I would recommend you purchase 5 wardrobe staple pieces every women should have .

My  five wardrobe staple pieces are :
* A Blazer
* A fabulous Handbag
* Ballet Flats
* LBD - A little Black Dress
* lastly a HOT!  Pair of pumps ( heels) 

Fun Fact : Did you know,  women wear their trusted LBD at least 13 times a year!

" Fashion is very important.  It is life enhancing and like everything that gives pleasure,  it is worth doing well " -  Vivienne Westwood

I would like to hear from you,  what do you think about this ?  The " Cost Per Wear " Theory . Is it Ideal?  Please leave your comments below

LIBERIAN ENTERTAINMENT

Here we are weeks after the most talked about events held in Monrovia, the Wiz Kid and Timaya show, sponsored by Sound City and Novaphone . Many opinions and views have been floating around the worldwide web, by supporters and non-supporters .  Whilst some may see these events to be an accomplishment for Liberians and a Gateway to numerous opportunities etc. At LSV , we believe these event are a wake up call, that WE as citizens have to take charge of our progressing entertainment industry . As the popular Liberian saying goes " The street wouldn't buy you , if your family doesn't sell you ". It is time to face the truth, in regards to the mismanagement and exploitation of the entertainment sector within the country.  Liberia is a low income country that relies heavily on foreign assistance, the  Civil war  destroyed much of the economy. It was reported that an average Liberian lives on 1 USD ( US Dollar )  a day , which totals to about 80 Liberian Dollars. Des...
