One of the biggest mistake people make is to go shopping for something without first thinking about what they already have in their closet. Sometimes, you’ll get a new item and have NOTHING in your closet to go with it, so you have to go out and buy more items to go with your new item. This is not smart shopping. Make sure you always know what you have at home before you go shopping, so that you can coordinate accordingly.
Sometimes you’ll be surprised at what you dig up. You may even rediscover some awesome clothes you never wear. Now you have more clothes to wear without even going shopping!
Here is a 10 step guide to shopping without going years in debt.
1. Go For The Classics
2. Only Buy What You Need
3. Buy Socks and Underwear For Less
4. Wait For The Discounts
5. Shop Out Of Season
6. Make A Trip To Your Nearest Outlet Store
7. Shop Online
8. Trade Clothing
9. Use Accessories To Create Different Looks
10. Sample Sales
There are lots of ways to build your style and avoid the temptation of spiraling yourself into debt with shopping. A little smart shopping will go along away, but remember that a few quality pieces are better than a wardrobe full of of low quality ones. Start with the classics and make them the foundation of your wardrobe, then slowly add in new accessories or specialty items.
There is no need to have each item of an outfit be expensive or outstanding. All you need is one classy piece and have everything else compliment it. For example you may have a REALLY nice pair of shoes that you like and you can wear just a t-shirt, jeans, and a pair of shades with them. The shoes will be the main show and show women you have style. It’s all about keeping the balance between trying too hard and not trying at all.
