A lack of funds is hard for the fashionista, but that doesn't mean you can't look good at the same time. So for those of you under a really tight budget, this article will help you with shopping and styling tips.
Part 1 Assessing what you have already.
1. Sort your wardrobe. Make a list of the clothing already owned. Combine all exceptional outfits to come up with new looks.
Match existing casual outfits and mix with jackets, enabling these to be worn to work as well as to an event.
Jeans and a t-shirt are sufficient for errands and housework. Jeans with heels or elegant shoes suddenly look more up-market.
Create three different outfits for evening wear using existing clothes. Challenge yourself to doing this.
Part 2 Making your own items.
1. Repurpose your remaining clothes. Improve how they look by adding embellishments, making them fit better or removing sleeves or legs from them. If you have the time and skill, make some new accessories from materials already owned.
Make a scarf, hat and mittens from a sweater.
Make a purse, cosmetic bag, lunch bag and tote bag.
Part 3 Saving money.
1. Compare prices. Research online before shopping at a mall.
2. Watch for sales. Buy things that are out of season (not necessarily out of fashion). They will be cheaper as no one will need them during that season.
3. Buy plain clothing. Not only is it simple and more affordable but it will mix and match with many items, with ease. Additionally, buy some cool scarves that can be worn with anything, to dress up plainer clothing.
4. Buy neutral, casual shoes. Choose black or brown with a slight heel.
5. Limit jewelry. Accentuate with earrings or a necklace. Bracelets may not always be needed.
