12 summer items worth the splurge. Tanya Foster wearing Cartolina and Tanya Taylor dresses and holding EltaMD sunscreen

12 summer items worth the splurge. Tanya Foster wearing Cartolina and Tanya Taylor dresses and holding EltaMD sunscreen

I know we all love a good deal, but today I want to share my favorite items that are worth the higher price tag. Higher price tag typically comes with better quality and a lasting product, which means you have to choose wisely. From fashion to beauty, these are 12 items I am glad I splurged on and would again in a heartbeat.

Tanya Foster wearing Hunza G swimsuit

One item that I wear again and again is this Hunza G swimsuit. I love the crinkle material and classic style. It is a one-size fits all, making it a great fit on many body types. I wear it on repeat over the summer and while on vacation! I have one in black and one in bubblegum pink. They are so flattering.

_____

Everyone needs a great white dress for summer. This white midi dress (size S) is so feminine and beautiful for warmer seasons. Buying one that is high-quality and a timeless style is definitely worth the price tag. The dress is styled with this petite raffia bag, another piece I think is worth the price tag.

Tanya Foster wearing Sarah Creal make-up

High-quality make-up is always worth the splurge! Sarah Creal has excellent beauty products that is created specifically for more mature women's skin. I got to meet Sarah Creel and hear her story. She's amazing!

Another classic summer style is this navy mixed media midi dress (size S). I love the polo style, making it easy to dress up or down! For an elevated look, pair it with these suede heeled sandals. It's a shoe that's definitely worth the price tag!

Tanya Foster wearing Atlanta x Pacific Frances Valentine dress and clutch

I love a pop of color for summertime. This pink bow dress (size S) is absolutely stunning. It's made out of a taffeta material that is so chic for events. Plus, there are so many ways to tie the bow, offering endless styling possibilities.

A floral dress is always a must for summertime. This floral midi dress (size 4) is absolutely stunning. I especially love the corset-style bodice that makes it so flattering.

How gorgeous is this pinstripe maxi dress (size S)?? I wore it on our cruise to Greece and Turkey and it was a showstopper. There are endless ways to tie it, plus you can easily dress it up or down. With a piece so versatile, it's definitely worth the splurge. I also wore the same dress in a beautiful blue silk taffeta to a wedding. You can see it HERE.

Another dress I wore on the cruise, this floral midi dress (size 4) has been my go-to dress this season for all events. It's so beautiful and fits like a glove. I styled it with this cashmere sweater. It's the perfect weight for summer.

_____

Tkees flip flops

I know that we want to save money on items like flip flops, but trust me when I say that these TKEES flip flops are worth the price tag. They hold up so well and are a chic nude sandal you can wear with shorts, dresses, and more. I also own them in this gloss style. Halle Berry wears them. Need I say more?

_____

Tanya Foster wearing Cartolina top and skirt

This patterned shell top and midi skirt (size S) are beautiful pieces for summer date nights, vacation, and more. I know y'all love this splurge item too because it has been on the best sellers list for multiple weeks! Here I am also wearing two other items I think are worth the splurge – these Loewe sunglasses and basket tote. So chic and perfect for summer.

_____

Elta MD tinted sunscreen

I know that no one wants to spend over $40 on sunscreen, but trust me, the EltaMD tinted face sunscreen is a must! I have all of my reasons why I love this sunscreen for daily use here.

_____

Tanya Foster wearing Spanx airessentials ribbed set for traveling

You can find plenty of Spanx dupes, but trust me, none of them compare to the real deal. I especially love this ribbed AirEssentials half zip and wide leg pants set (size S). It's the perfect neutral color for warmer temps and great for travel. I'm also wearing these sneakers, which I featured on my 10 best shoes for traveling blog post. They are a higher price point, but definitely worth the splurge. I have worn them dozens of times for traveling and casual errand days and never get blisters.

Make it a great day!   xoxo - Tanya
