Just make sure you can document the expenditures and be able to show how and why you use the items - on the job. This can be a problem in all jobs where there is the opportunity to get personal and business use mixed together, as there is in yours. Also, if you are buying something that is used both personally and for the job, you need to be able to show how you allocated the expenses. If you are dealing with specialized clothing, even though what you buy may be selected for the job, as long as you could wear it in personal life you cannot deduct any of it. (Example, a person who buys a business suit for an aspect of the job and who would never wear it in private life cannot take a deduction because (s)he could wear it, if (s)he chose, other than on the job.)
