Dressing For Less

You can look great without spending a lot of money if you use good judgment and follow a few simple rules:

Shop at a variety of locations

To get maximum choice shop online, at retail stores and secondhand shops.

Don’t get caught in the trap of buying because the price is right. If the item does not fit into your wardrobe you will probably never wear it. Make sure it is comfortable and a style that suits you and that you will wear. It’s not a bargain if you buy it and just sits there until you finally give it away.

Go through your closet and make a list before you buy. Get rid of any item that you have not worn in a year. Be honest with yourself, don’t keep it there for years and finally give it away when it is not suitable for anyone. Find out what you need before you shop. Make sure the items you buy suit your body type, your lifestyle (don’t spend a lot of money on fancy dresses if you seldom go out) and go with at least 3 other pieces in your closet

Buy Classics

Spend your money on items that will not go out of style at the end of the season. You can always add a few fad items but keep them to a minimum. Invest in quality material and classic lines – sweaters, jackets, pants and leather goods.

Check the return policy

Before you buy know that you can return for a full refund if you are not satisfied. It is especially important to know the return policy when you shop on the Internet in case it does not fit or is not the colour you expected.

Shop at the end of the season

You will get a lot of deals at the end of the season, if you can wait that long to shop. Again, as a word of caution, don’t get caught up in getting a great price and buy something that you will never wear.

Get Organized

Make a list of what you will need to complete or expand an outfit, know where you will find what you want and know how much you want to spend. Instead of shopping haphazardly, save money for time at the end of the season when you will do the majority of your shopping.
