8 ‘QUIET LUXURY’ ITEMS TO BUY AT COSTCO

You know what “quiet” means and you know what “luxury” means, but do you know what the two words combined mean? “Quiet luxury” describes a certain type of lifestyle. It’s a lot like “stealth wealth” as it also indicates having wealth but not being flashy or boastful about it. But there’s more to it than that; it’s also got an aesthetic aspect. Quiet luxury, when describing fashion or décor, indicates timelessness and simplicity. It’s elegant, regal and minimalist. Quiet luxury is not only a manner of living, it’s also, perhaps even more so, a manner of looking.

Exuding simplicity and high-end comfort, this jute pouf at Costco is peak quiet luxury when it comes to home décor. It’s made of naturally renewable fibers and can be used as a footrest, a side table or extra seating. It’s small yet useful and will never go out of style. It’s available in navy or white and sells at Costco for $54.99. 

Geometric Wall Décor Panels 

Quiet luxury is subtle and understated, so you don’t want to have any art that brings a garish or loud feel to your space. Consider these metal geometric wall décor panels. You can get a set of two at Costco for $42.99. They’d look great in your bedroom, above the bed, so long as you have nothing else on the wall.    

Scent Diffuser

A scent diffuser can make a wonder of aromatic difference in a bathroom. Place it above the toilet or on a little shelf to emanate comfort and sophistication. This one, which features bamboo reeds and is made from essential oils, goes for $32.99 at Costco.  

Plush Dog Bed 

Your dog, if applicable, mustn’t be left out of your quiet luxury vision. Get them a plush dog bed, like this one, which looks invitingly soft and is made with memory foam (Fido deserves the best!). It costs $54.99 at Costco and is available in cream or silver. 

Women’s White or Black Sweater Blouse

Now for apparel. When going for quiet luxury, you want to embrace simplicity and timelessness. Don’t go for wild prints or trendy cuts. Look for something that will hold up both in terms of durability and fashion. Think “capsule wardrobe,” too and opt for pieces like the Matty M Ladies’ Eyelash Sweater. Available in white or black, this sweater costs $19.99 at Costco. 

Men’s White Dress Shirt 

Fashion trends tend to be more geared toward women, but men should feel comfortable to enjoy them just as much as their female peers. Dudes seeking to radiate quiet luxury should, like the ladies, favor chic simplicity over busy fads. Consider the Kirkland Signature Men’s Tailored Fit Dress Shirt, available in white. It sells for $24.99 at Costco. 

14k White-Gold Diamond Stud Earrings 

When it comes to shopping for jewelry, you want to keep in mind the same words we’ve been pushing throughout this article: “simplicity,” “elegance,” “timeless,” “minimalist” and “classic.” Capturing the essence of each of these words is this pair of round 14k white-gold diamond stud earrings at Costco. At $289.99, this is the most expensive item on this list, but you can dress them up and down for day or evening, and if you’re careful not to lose them, you could wear them for the rest of your life.
