If you are a fashion enthusiast on a budget and feel overwhelmed by how costly it is to improve your style and explore your fashion fantasies, I think I have every right to ask you to relax!
I’ll show you how to achieve that on a budget in the following steps:
1. Assess your wardrobe
Two or more outfits in your wardrobe might bring your fashion fantasies to life. So, check out what you already have and start with it. This will help you know what you need and what you don’t before buying anything new. You might think this is unnecessary, but you might just be surprised to discover that it is a good way to save money.
2. Buy thrift wears
This is a good way to practice sustainable fashion. Buy from thrift vendors or stores, and you’ll get the best to slay on a budget. The intriguing thing about buying thrift wear is that fashion items are often unique and of good quality, and if you clean up nicely, ‘nobody is gonna know’ unless you tell them.
You can also look for discounted fashion item sales. That’s a good way to save money.
3. Accessorising
Another way to improve your style on a budget is to be intentional about the accessories you buy. It’s wise to purchase multi-purpose accessories that you can style with more than one outfit and for different occasions.
Accessories take your look from 0 to 100; they move it from basic to exquisite and sophisticated. Imagine wearing a plain-coloured outfit, say black, and wearing a neckpiece, bracelet, knuckle rings, and shades.
4. Outsource
There are different ways you can outsource fashion items. You can rent items for specific purposes and a particular period. Also, you can borrow from loved ones at little or no cost. Another hack that could work is to exchange your outfits for someone else’s. There’s someone that would love what you have and vice versa.
5. Practice DIYs
To improve your style, you can upcycle and recycle items that you have. For instance, you can apply dyes to an old black/white top instead of throwing it out. This way, you have a win-win situation – you save cost, reduce waste, and add a different item to your wardrobe.
With the above points, upgrading your style without overspending should be possible. Thinking outside the box is also essential to embrace to make your fashion dreams come true.
