Resolution #3: Invest in a statement accessory.

Each and every MIMCO piece has been thoughtfully designed with a modern woman in mind. When it comes to investment pieces, we know they need to be versatile, so they they can slip seamlessly into your wardrobe rotation.

Working as a fashion buyer for David Jones, Teneille Oakley has an incredible eye for detail – and she knows exactly what to look for when it comes to investing in a statement accessory.

How do you define an ‘investment piece'?

An amazing piece that you don’t mind paying a little more for because you know you will have it forever. Choose something classic that you know you will get lots of wear out of – because it will always be in fashion.

What are three investment pieces every woman should own, and what would be your picks from our new collection?

Fab shoes, a designer handbag and a pair of statement earrings.
From MIMCO’s collection, I love the Entity Circle Bag, Imprint Drop Earrings & Switch Heels.

Investment pieces should be versatile – and we think a statement accessory is the perfect example of this. What is your advice for making a statement/investment piece work for any occasion?

Versatility is key. Ideally you want to invest in something that you can easily dress up and down to suit a multitude of occasions. I would also recommend to keep the rest of your look minimal so the statement piece can shine.

What are you most looking forward to in 2018?

I’m looking forward to working from Melbourne in 2018 and spending more time with my husband and puppy.

What’s your New Year’s Resolution?

I’m going to learn French with my husband so we have an excuse to travel to Paris together.
