“My last pair lasted me seven years, and the pair before that lasted me five years.” —A reviewer attesting to the exceptional quality of Rainbow sandals.

Unless otherwise specified, all sizes in this post are listed in women's.

Promising reviews: "I’ve always had a pair of rainbows since the day I turned 12. My last pair lasted me seven years, and the pair before that lasted me five years. These are 100% worth the price. My boyfriend looked at me a little [strange] when he saw the price tag, but I refuse to buy a new pair of $20 sandals somewhere else to buy a new pair every six months. I just won’t do it. They last for years! The thin strap with the single blue layer may be my favorite ones to date. Can not recommend them enough!" —Katelyn Treise

"As lightweight as they feel, you would think they wouldn’t last, but these flip-flops are great! They conform to the sole of your foot and get really comfy! I am on my third pair. The pair pictured in the center is about four years old, and I wear them daily. They are still functioning, but I figured I would get a new pair to start breaking them in. Rainbow girly for life! :)" —Katie, the left reviewer image

Promising reviews: "These pants have been a godsend for me. I'm only 5’11" but have the hardest time finding dress pants with a long enough inseam. I have five or six pairs of Lees. Perfect fit and they hold up for several years. And they are affordable. I highly recommend." —Jean L.

"Comfortable and versatile! These pants are comfortable and can be dressed up and down. Perfect for teaching or a night on the town!" —Kir4Life

Get them from Amazon for $22.10+ (available in sizes 2–18, three lengths, and in seven colors).

Promising review: "I bought this blazer in many different colors and have gotten so many compliments. I have traveled all day in them and packed them in a suitcase and haven't had any issues with them wrinkling. I have owned them for a couple of years now, and they still look as good as the day I bought them. I highly recommend the pink and green blazer." —Chelsea

Get it from Free People for $70 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 15 colors).

Promising review: "Purchased four years ago. It works perfectly! I accidentally wore it in the shower twice, and it's still working. It's very lightweight. I have weird, small wrists, and the jeweler removed some links. The silver/gold is great as I can wear it with anything. I’ve only replaced the battery once in four years. For such a small face, I love that I can easily see the numbers. I've worn Timex my entire career." —plainjane

Get it from Amazon for $40.25+ (available in six finishes with a metal band and three finishes with a leather band).

Promising reviews: "I’ve had this watch for many years, and I continuously get compliments on it. It’s a classic and goes with any outfit. It hasn’t broken once. For the price and years, I’d give it a 5/5. Dirt can build up in the snap part over time, so make you clean it, but other than that, I’m obsessed." —Chey Marie

"It’s perfect! I purchased a gold one of these a couple of years ago, and it’s still perfect. I love the look of the silver one, and I got a deal, used like new, and it is definitely like new. I’m a hairdresser, and these watches are perfect for me. Great value and looks so retro! 💙" —Patty

Get it from Amazon for $33.41+ (available in gold and silver).

Promising review: "These are the best leggings hands down. They are soft, last forever, and never slide down. I have pairs I have owned for 10 years that are still in great shape. I can’t wear any other leggings." —Lululemon Customer

Get them from Lululemon for $98+ (available in sizes 0–20, three lengths, and in 14 colors/patterns).

Get them from Amazon for $74.95 (available in sizes 5–12, wide sizes, and five colors).

Some reviewers said that they were able to skip wearing a bra with it!

Promising reviews: "Okay, this is so good. I had the Zara bodysuit identical to this, but it quickly got stretched out, so I tried this one out. It is 10 times better than that one. The fit is perfect, it hugs you just right, and is supportive enough that I won’t wear a bra. Also, not see-through at all! Amazing. Need in all the colors." —Dawn E.

"I have had two bodysuits from this brand for over four years, and the quality is still amazing and fits great. It snatches you, but it’s comfortable and I'll definitely be purchasing more." —chelsea

Get it from Amazon for $14.97+ (available in sizes XS–3XL and 15 colors). 

Promising reviews: "My favorite one-piece ever!! So cute! The support is great. I’ve swam in it, hiked in it, and tubed in it. It’s great, and the coverage is pretty good also, but not too much!" —Ali Anderson, FNTP

"I used this before pregnancy, during pregnancy, and post-pregnancy. It's the only bathing suit I feel good in! I’ve had this for four years now!" —Britney Lemus

Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 36 colors/patterns).

Get it from Nordstrom for $180 (available in seven colors).

Promising reviews: "Love these slippers! This is my second pair. My first pair is tan and six years old. They are starting to lose their shape and support. I wear them three seasons out of the year. I ordered these in black this time and love them so much that I even wear them to work. I'm a second-grade teacher and my students love that I wear Ugg.. lol." —Mr.J

"Most comfortable shoe ever! I love wearing these everywhere. They feel like clouds, and they are so cute!" —cora

Get them from Amazon for $124.95 or directly from Ugg for $125 (available in sizes 5–12 and in seven colors).

Promising reviews: "Super cute oversize denim jacket that fits true to size. The fabric is soft and very comfortable. It’s also versatile with the ability to dress it up or down. Overall, I highly recommend having this in your closet." —Lydia L

"This denim jacket is perfect and my absolute favorite jacket that I own. The pockets are large. There are four on the outside, two inside. When I wear this jacket, I don’t even carry a purse. It is warm without being stiff and uncomfortable. I am able to move freely in it. I’ve also had it for over two years, and it washes well. All buttons are still intact and no wash wear." —ecd

Get it from Amazon for $43.69+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 11 colors). 

Promising reviews: "If you've been hesitant about whether or not to buy these, then this is your official sign to just do it!! I kept these in my 'saved for later' cart for nearly a year before finally deciding to take the leap, and oh my GOSH I am so glad I did! They're so comfortable, and I most certainly will be ordering more in other colors. So, if you're looking to unleash your inner painter/gardener, then this is the perfect outfit for you. :D" —Nathan R Ford

"I love love love these overalls. I purchased two different pairs, and even after several years of continuous wear, they are holding up perfectly. So far, I have three pairs, and quality is excellent for all of them." —alf

Get it from Amazon for $21.24+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in six colors).

It's recommended to go half a size up if you have narrow feet and a full size up for wider feet in this particular style! 

BuzzFeed Shopping editor Jenae Sitzes can back this up: "I have a pair of Rothy's flats and though I usually wear an 8, I went with an 8.5 and they fit perfectly. Though I haven't had the chance to wear them a *ton* (because I WFH most days), I have commuted in them several times with no issues. They're super comfy and feel so lightweight and stretchy! I have them in the neutral Ecru color, but they come in a ton of gorgeous colors — if I were going into the office regularly, I'd be tempted to grab them in several shades. Psst — check out my colleagues' full Rothy's flats review for more deets!"

Promising review: "Cute, comfy, perfect. I still wear my first ones after eight years!" —Elizabeth B.

Get them from Rothy's for $99 (available in sizes 5–13 and in 13 colors/patterns). Rothy's flats come in a bunch of different styles, and you can check them out here!

Promising reviews: "I love these pants! They look like they’re from a nice women’s work clothing store. The elastic is a lifesaver for when I wear these to a big meal. And the cut and flow of the pants' legs look super professional. Plus, pockets!! I’ve worn these to social events and to work, and get compliments on them in both scenarios. No one could believe I got them on Amazon. Super cute, high-quality material and appearance, and great value for a comfy, versatile pair of pants." —AE

"I love these pants. I've had these for over three years and am back to get another color. The material is lightweight and breathable. They're also pretty versatile in style; I wear them to work, date night, dinner, and really wherever makes sense.

"Again, we are three years in, and these are still a first-string pick for what I'm wearing to work after laundry day. Gentle cycle, hang dry, and we're ready to go. No need for dry cleaning or ironing." —Rebekkah

Get them from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes XS–2X, short and long sizes, and 29 colors).

Promising reviews: "I've been wearing these joggers for years. They are so soft, they don't pill, and they don't stretch out in the knees. They last forever!" Gwendolyn z.

"This is my third pair of the performance jogger sweatpants. They are so incredibly soft and comfortable, the waistband is perfect, and they wash and dry so well that the first pair I bought about two years ago still looks brand new. I wear them daily and would 100% recommend them to anyone!" —Ashley R.

Get them from Vuori for $110 (available in sizes XXS–XXL, in two lengths, in five core colors and five limited edition colors).

Promising review: "Okay, I’ve bought this dress twice now — once in the light lavender color, and just recently in the light green color. Both times I’ve worn them to Renaissance festivals, and then on separate occasions for photo shoots, and then just everyday wear. They’re super cute, they come well packaged, and they fit true to size. I personally haven’t had a problem with them being thin or see-through, like I’ve seen a few other reviewers mention, but maybe it’s because I’ve not bought white. Not sure. Either way, no holes, they last — I’ve had the purple one for three years now, I think, and it’s still in great condition. Perfect summer dress and I cannot recommend them enough!" —Olivia

Get it from Amazon for $40.99 (available in XS–XL and in 36 colors). 

Promising reviews: "Finally found the perfect length skirt that doesn’t ride up and is so comfy! The fabric is super stretchy, and the pockets are so convenient. It is a lightweight skirt, and you can dress it down or dress it up!" —Kelley

"I was looking for a skort that wasn't too full/skirty and hung straight. I ordered from three different brands, and this was the keeper! The length is perfect — just below the finger tip. I have washed it twice, and it looks brand new.

"UPDATE: NOW OWN 3! I have owned the black one for TWO YEARS, and it still looks brand new!" —Barbara

Get it from Amazon for $14.99+ (available in XS–3XL and in 45 colors/patterns)

Promising reviews: "Soooo pretty. It’s 100% a Swarovski [alternative] for so cheap. Looks exactly like the photo, and I wear it every day." —Trysten Walters

"Stylish and durable. Good quality. Won't tarnish. I wear it to the beach and pool, love the clips to clasp them. I have had them for three years and wear them at least weekly." —Marie Silva

Get it from Amazon for $17.95+ (available in three lengths, 14-karat gold-plated or 18-karat gold vermeil, and in yellow, rose, or white gold). 

Promising review: "I’ve had these jogger pants for two years now, and they’re still going strong! Here’s why they’re my favorite:

"Comfort and Fit: The material is butter-smooth against the skin, which is such a pleasure, especially for long days. I went for a medium, and it fits a bit loose on me — just the way I wanted for a relaxed and easy fit. They’re not overly tight or clingy, so they feel breathable and comfortable, whether I’m working out, traveling, or just lounging.

"Durability Over Time: After two years of regular use, I’m happy to say they’re holding up incredibly well. The color hasn’t faded much, and the fabric still looks almost new, with no pilling or fraying at the seams. It’s rare to find pants that can last this long with so much wear.

"Overall Thoughts: For anyone who loves soft, comfortable joggers that can stand the test of time, these are a fantastic choice. They’re versatile, durable, and worth every penny! Highly recommended." —Melisa

Get it from Amazon for $25.99+ (available in sizes XS–3XL, two styles, and 26 colors). 

Promising review: "This is my second Better Sweater. My first one is still in use, but I decided to purchase another one because this is the perfect sweater for me and our climate. It looks good and is easy to maintain. I like the inner pocket for my phone, and it continues to look good after every wash." —Burque Bert

Get it from REI or directly from Patagonia for $169 (available in sizes XXS–XXL and up to 12 colors).

Promising review: "I bought my first pair a few years ago, and they have consistently been my most-worn shoe ever since! I love them so much that I just bought another pair in a different color. I've walked miles in them at a time, and they're incredibly comfortable, no rubbing or blisters at all. The leather softens over time in the best way that makes them feel like butter. I'm a size 7 and find these to fit perfectly in my true size. I'd buy these over and over again." —Olivia

Get them from Madewell for $98 (available in sizes 5–12 and in six colors).

Promising reviews: "Looks high-end without the high-end price. I got a small in the white, olive, and black. It’s not see-through and very comfortable. No one believes me about the low price! I will be getting more colors for the spring and summer. Definitely my new favorite wardrobe staple." —52kmk

"I have this in three colors now and love them! They're still cool on hot southern days and look great! I've had two of the three for years, and they wash and wear well — good quality! They're flowy, and I love the racer back style. Highly recommend!" —aggieamy04

Get it from Amazon for $16.90+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and 16 colors).

Promising review: "I ordered a size small in yellow, and I absolutely love the color. This skirt is so soft and fits perfectly. I really like how the fabric flows, adding a beautiful, feminine look. Perfect summer skirt that can either be dressed up or dressed down." —Sally

"It's very breathable and has held up for years." —aeisjustanumber

Get it from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 50 colors/prints).

Promising reviews: "These are the best sandals that I have been wearing for years. You can wear them with any outfit. They're very comfortable and good looking." —fgarici

"What a great Hermès alternative. Why spend thousands when Steve Madden makes them for much less? And they last longer, too! Great sandal for casual, everyday, classy wear!" —Brooke Price

Get them from Amazon for $43.82+ (available in sizes 5–11, wide sizes, and in several colors/designs).

Promising review: "I have bought Banana Republic's crewneck sweaters for decades. They are pricey but last for years, so they're always a good investment." —Beth Bell

Get it from Banana Republic for $160 (available in sizes XXS–XXL and in 10 colors/patterns; note: it's also available in eight colors on sale but sizes are limited).

Promising reviews: "I’ve worn these everywhere!! They are super comfy and lightweight, go with everything, and run true to size. I got them in white as well, and I’m obsessed. I’ve been to a concert in them, driven in them, and also, I went on vacation recently and walked all over the city, went out, and danced at bars. I’ve never had a pair of heels that are so comfy! Seriously, so worth the money." —Courtney Wilson

"Complete 5/5! Love these shoes and wore them so much over the course of 2–3 years that one of the straps finally gave out. I immediately ordered another pair and am wearing them all the time. Cute, a little chunky while still being delicate, and super comfy." —Caroline

Get them from Amazon for $19.99+ (available in sizes 5–12 and in 21 colors).

Promising reviews: "It’s much more spacious than it looks. It’s very sleek and stylish. I use it as my work bag and find that it looks professional and has enough space for all of my stuff. I carry a laptop, a pencil case, two books, a makeup bag, a water bottle, a wallet, lotion, a phone, and laptop charger, and other small miscellaneous objects. Still plenty of space. And when you carry it, it doesn’t feel bulky or cumbersome." —Su

"Great quality bag! I've used it daily for two years at work, often carrying heavy items, and it's held up remarkably well with minimal wear and tear. It's a fantastic [alternative] for the Béis Work Tote—stylish, durable, and looks far more expensive than it is. I've received numerous compliments on it and am now purchasing my second one." —Jordyn Justus

Get it from Amazon for $29.37+ (available in six colors). 

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love these! They are actually high-waisted and knee-length, which is so hard to come by! No camel toe and so versatile! I can work out in them, go to the store, and wear them under a dress! My thighs thank you!" —Christine Vrabel

"Years later, and they’re still amazing. Deep pockets that I can put my phone in  while I chase the kiddos. They look and fit amazingly. They are of great quality and aren’t see-through when I move or bend over. I can wear them and feel like I’m athletic, or even when I’m just around the house and wanna be comfy (very versatile). For the price, they’re amazing. I would’ve even paid more!" —Jessica Little

Get it from Amazon for $19.98+ (available in sizes XS–5XL, in two-packs, and in 10 colors/patterns).

Promising review: "Ordered a pair in 2022, lasted until 2025 ONLY because they fell off in the river. They survived a lot of lake, river, and ocean water, mud holes, and scratches from tree branches over the past three years. The lens had started to scratch and peel in the nose areas, but as expected, when worn in rough conditions. 10/10" —Rb1172
