Autumn is here, but if you’re too strapped to revamp your wardrobe for the new season, here are our top ways to make the most of your style on a budget…
- Good underwear
If you buy a properly fitting bra, the tops and dresses that you already have will look amazing. A good bra can make you look younger and slimmer by making your body look longer and lifting your boobs.
- Organise your wardrobe
The best way to save money on your wardrobe is to get organised. Sort your clothes out by grouping the same items of clothing together. That way, you know exactly what you have to work with.
- Customise
Even simple things like changing buttons on a jacket or top can give it a new lease of life and don’t cost anything. You can even customize shoes and bags with sequins to turn an ordinary shoe into something funky, ready for a night out! Use the stones and beads from any broken jewellery to brighten up your other clothes.
- Accessorize
Accessories have got to be one of the quickest and cheapest ways to add new style into your wardrobe. Pick pieces that suit your personality and you’ll love the results.
- Alterations
Alterations can totally change your clothes. If you’ve got a dress that you love but have worn to death, tailor it and wear it as a top instead. It’ll cost a few pounds, but make a huge difference.
- Revamp occasion wear
Wear a posh jacket from a wedding or party with your everyday jeans. If you have a a dress from an occasion like a wedding, dress it down with black tights and a biker jacket to put the rock chick into your posh frock.
- Take care
Clean your shoes, boots and bags. That way, there’s no need to buy more, instead make an old pair of shoes look brand new with a simple brush over.
