We all know luxury items can be pricey. At the Julianne Costigan team, we believe in investing in pieces that are meant to last a lifetime and occasionally that means spending the big bucks. However, sometimes there’s pieces you know you want right now but don’t want to fully invest in because you won’t wear it forever. That’s when a great fashion dupe comes in handy. Before buying a fashion dupe or investing in an item, ask yourself how long you intend to wear the piece. Use this to guide the amount you are willing to spend.

Here are some pieces we love and some great alternatives for someone on a budget.

Bottega Veneta Pouch
