Fashion is one of the largest industries in the entire world. It makes billions annually and is made up of small fashion houses and big retailers alike. What this means for the consumer is more choice and better prices. It also has started to mean a loss in quality, recycled styles, and an overabundance of choice that can make it hard to curate your own sense of style. That is why every wardrobe needs an overhaul, and every individual needs to focus on what they can do to create a unique look that suits them perfectly. The perfect wardrobe is not filled with the hottest items this season; it is full of pieces that help you express how unique and stylish you are year after year.
Clear Out and Redesign Your Closet
The first step will always to be to go through everything you own. Get rid of pieces that have holes or are otherwise unwearable (by recycling the material) and set side pieces you don’t like but are in good condition (to be sold or donated). What you have left should be the pieces you wear often and love. Once the clutter is gone, you can go about redesigning your closet. Try to display everything you own so that you can easily see and create outfits with ease.
What to Consider When Shopping
Clearing out your closet will show you what you do wear, but it will also make what is missing from your wardrobe more apparent. Perhaps you realize you lack reds, despite loving the color, or perhaps you need a new collection of basics to compliment your more fashion-forward pieces. Either way, you will likely feel the itch to shop once you have space in your closet, and that is why there are a few things you should consider about a garment before you buy it:
- How well it will pair with other items in your closet
- What it is made of
- How well it is made
These three considerations will help ensure that your new purchases last as long as you want to wear them, feel great on your skin, and will work with your wardrobe to give you multiple outfit choices.
Using Financing Options to Splurge on a Budget
The idea is to spend more on better quality items, rather than less on a piece that might not last a few wash cycles. This, of course, means more money, and that’s why financing options and looking for department stores that offer a Price Beat Guarantee are the first places you should look, especially for brands you love. A great way to get very good quality clothes is by shopping with stores that offer financing options so that you can buy something truly luxurious and only pay a small amount each month. Do be careful, however; you will want to keep your repayments within your budget!
Your perfect wardrobe is one that showcases your style, taste, and creativity. It is one that lasts as long as you want it to, and it is one that is displayed so that you can see what you own. Unleash your creativity, and be creative when styling your outfits so that you can shine as an individual.
