One pro of the designer clothes is the quality of them, the feel, colour and fit just looks better.
I'd spend the money on timepiece items, but not something that would go out of style or not last. Think of it in terms of price per wear. Say you pay 200 for a shirt and wear it 50 times a year thats only $4 for every time you wear it. Also like the G always says spend the money on a custom fitted suit.
Bottom line, make sure it looks good on you and no amount of money can make up for a lack of fashion sense.
