It’s that time of year when the fashion models are walking the runways and showing off the newest lines from our favorite designers. It is also the time of year when we are watching the awards shows to see the outfits worn by our favorite celebrities, like Rihanna, Justin Bieber, Kanye West, Nicki Minaj, Lady Gaga and so many more. These celebrities have been seen already at many of the fashion shows looking at what is going to be the next big thing. So as you go out to update your own wardrobe, take a look at what the celebs are looking at and what they seem to like.
Before you go shopping, there is an absolute must. Clean out your closet! Get rid of clothing that no longer fits or that is worse for the wear from being constantly worn. I know that it is your favorite blouse, but it is threadbare and should be pitched in the garbage. You will find a new one to take it’s place, I assure you.
Find your local discount store or online haunt that has the same fashions at cheap prices. There are a lot to choose from such as, Marshalls, TJ Maxx and Ross just to name a few. Outlet stores are a great place to shop for good deals on clothing as well and they have a lot to choose from. Look up your local sales as well, especially towards the holidays. Everyone is having a sale during the holiday shopping season.
One of the best shopping tools is of course the internet. You can find lots of online coupon codes and such to help you save money as you buy those have to have items. You would be smart to shop at online stores that offer free shipping too. This saves you more money than you can imagine. You can go for that Beyonce’ look, but make sure it fits your body style as well. You really want to shop for what looks good on you, not just for what you see the celebrities wear.
Take your time when shopping. You can’t find that perfect outfit, if you are constantly in a rush. Pick your day to shop, make sure that you have nothing else to do and nowhere else to be so that you can be totally relaxed and enjoy the experience. The changing rooms are in the stores for a reason so USE THEM! It also helps to take a friend with you who is totally honest. This will prevent you from buying something completely wrong that you will only have to return later.
Have fun and don’t forget to accessorize! Belt’s, scarves, faux jewelry, shoes and bags are all part of the ensemble, and will really make that outfit pop even if you are buying clothes for work. You can still look amazing and be thrifty, while rocking really good outfits that are suitable for an office job. Never think that work clothes have to be dull and boring.
