Your eye catches “that” woman. You’ll find her at the grocery store, the bank, the pickup line at school or at the office. She looks like she belongs sitting at a café in Paris. You envy her but you’re also silently cheering her on. You wish you could pull off such a stylish look, but it feels out of reach, especially financially. You think to yourself; the cost of her handbag alone would break the bank.
All of us fall prey to this myth – that you can’t have a stylish wardrobe on a budget. I guarantee you “that” women didn’t spend as much on her outfit as you might think. Looking every bit chic doesn’t mean spending all of your hard-earned pennies on a pair of designer flats.
Follow these ten tips and look like you stepped out of a fashion magazine with money to spare.
Tip 2: Buy affordable designer pieces
Shop for affordable pieces that look expensive. You can find designer shoes on the clearance rack at DSW and affordable designer bags at TJMAXX/Marshalls. Try Target for off designer attractive bags. Look for neutral items and pieces that you love. A trick is to wear less expensive pieces with a designer accessory.
Tip 3: Coats, jackets and other layers
Buy an inexpensive faux leather jacket that will work with many garments. Check out Forever 21 for younger women and for more mature women try Burlington Coat Factory. A tailored jacket is a lifetime investment. Invest in classic styles like a camel coat, navy pea, black moto, belted trench or raw denim.
