Hello and thank you for visiting if you are new to this blog site. Today I am talking about Saving money on fashion.
- Save for the item and set a budget of how much you are willing to spend on that item
- Avoid store cards, from experience they can run up a lot of debt and so if I don’t have the money I don’t buy it, and points/loyalty cards are better
- If you have clothes that no longer fit that are in good condition then why not sell items or pay for them to be repaired
- Wait for sales, a lot of retailers start to change their fashion certain parts of the year like as soon as it begins to get nearer September they will have a sale on summer items and start setting up items for Autumn
- Invest in clothes that can be worn all year around, this why I set up this blog because I like to invest in clothes that last a long time and be worn all year round
- Create wish lists and I keep things, when shopping online in the basket and see if I can get the same item on the high street for less and if I can’t find the items, I will check online and save for when I can invest on that particular list
- Go through what you want in your wardrobe and go through items you want to let go of and build a capsule wardrobe. I know many people give this tip, but for me I buy what will go with what I already have and have plenty of outfits that go together
It is all about being happy about what you wear and how it makes you feel when you put it on, and so taking time to invest in a good wardrobe is how you can save and budget and nothing goes to waste.
