In today’s world, whether we are purchasing items for ourselves or for others, the importance of conscious shopping has never been more pronounced. It is essential to select pieces that feel unique and have longevity. A concept introduced by Fashion Psychologist Shakaila Forbes-Bell resonates with me: the “four, three, two, one rule.” This guideline suggests:
- Envisioning your style four years into the future.
- Identifying at least three occasions where you could wear the item.
- Taking two deep breaths before making a decision.
- Savoring a good night’s sleep if you’re uncertain about a purchase.
This advice is invaluable and aligns with my personal approach to avoid impulsive spending on fleeting trends: I strive to shop for my future self. For instance, I often ask myself if the Dhani of 2028 would appreciate this item.
This philosophy inspired our collaboration with indie jewelry brand Bluboho in creating the envelope charm and moonstone charm bracelet. Crafted from 10k recycled gold, these delicate charms transcend trends and are priced under $200 while being designed for durability. The envelope design symbolizes a “note to your future self,” featuring an inscription around a sparkling diamond that only the wearer can see.
The “note” can embody anything meaningful—an intention, aspiration, mantra or simply serve as a reminder of personal growth throughout life. (For insights from Fashionista editors sharing their notes to their future selves, click here.
The handmade nature of these pieces means they are part of an exclusive collection; thus only a limited number were produced. If you seek a thoughtful gift that carries personal significance and uniqueness, this is an excellent choice. Consider it for someone dear to you—a friend facing challenges or someone who seems to have everything because they certainly don’t own something like this!
