Treat Yourself For Splurge Day With These Stunning Investment Pieces By Black Designers

You deserve it! 
Treat Yourself For Splurge Day With These Stunning Investment Pieces By Black Designers
Brother Vellies
By Dominique Hobdy · Updated October 23, 2020

Sis, if you were looking for an excuse to go all out and drop a stack on the investment piece you’ve been saving for, we’re giving you the green light.

It’s officially National Splurge Day and what better way to participate in the festivities than by picking out a few coveted items by talented Black designers?

Balling out is one thing, but it’s an entirely different level of fierce when you can drop a few hundreds and support your own—it’s the best of both worlds to say the least.

In the spirit of summertime, the season of doing the most and showing out, there’s no better moment than the present to make room in your budget for a top-notch purchase.

If we’re being honest, we had an immense amount of fun searching for the pieces that’ll deliver the quality you’ll love for a lifetime, even if it comes with a price tag you might have to prepare for.

At the end of the day, it’s nothing to a boss and that’s you—you’re a boss.

Check out our picks, have fun and remember you work hard for your money—you deserve it!
