How to Dress Well on a Budget

If you're a teenager or you simply don't have a job, you understand the struggle of finding ways on how to always be on point when you're always low on budget. Sometimes it's hard to find that perfect piece of clothing for your wardrobe that you know you can always look good on, but I hope this tips can help you do that.

• Buy wardrobe essentials

Wardrobe essentials (basics) such as a black dress, a cardigan and a pair of jeans can add wonders to your wardrobe. These clothes are examples of what can always come in handy if you don't know what to wear and another tip is that you may want to consider buying essentials that you can wear for all seasons especially if you live in a place where the weather always changes.

• Find things that you can mix and match

Buying things that are on trend may not be the best idea especially if you're not sure if you want to buy it or not. I'm not saying that you shouldn't buy trends though, but if you can't really match it with the majority of your clothes then you shouldn't really consider buying it. Having clothes that you can easily mix and match can also come in handy when you're in a rush and if you really can't think of anything else a cute romper can do the trick.

• Go for classic colours (black,white,neutrals)

Have you ever been in those situations where you're stuck in choosing between two cute clothes you have been wanting to add to your wardrobe for years now? I know I've been. I recommend choosing the one that you know you can always pair with anything. Try to consider classic colours because you can't go wrong with a black and white outfit, right?

• Know your style

This can save you time when you're about to go shopping because you know your dos and don'ts when it comes to your style and it can also help you in choosing between clothes. Knowing your style can help you because you already know what to look for and that brings us to our second last tip...

• Know where to go and what to look for

When you know your style you already have an idea on what you want to look for because you can just find a store that has the majority of clothes that you would normally wear and you would know where to go to. Try to find stores that are suitable for your budget, but if you don't really know where to go, you could just shop at your Go-to store.

• Quality over Quantity

My last tip is an important one because people often make mistakes over this and just choose to buy more even though the quality of the clothing can only last for a few months. If you're on a budget, find clothes that can last with you for years because it can save you more money compared to buying low quality clothes every month. Also, don't just buy something just because it's on sale, try to make sure that it looks good on you and that it can be a great item in your wardrobe. You don't really need to go to an expensive store just to get good quality stores because there's a lot of cheap stores too that have good quality in their clothes.
