Shopping tend to be a relaxing therapy for woman, no matter what age group she belongs to. As shopping is a comforting hobby for women, but sometimes it becomes a trouble for them in many ways. Going out to the market, there‘s only one thought running in our mind is , i.e. how to get an inexpensive but quality item that doesn’t affect our pocket.
Although clothes are exciting and fun but they are expensive at the same time. We love to buy new and trendy clothes even if the closet is bursting with branded outfits. We somehow manage to gouge our budget to buy our favorite dress. But if we plan the things properly and shop wisely then we can balance between our fashion and apparels.
Here are some tricks and hacks that will help you to save a lot without compromising your passion for clothes.
First Think Then Pick
We all go through the situation when we just love an outfit at the first sight and add that in our shopping cart instantly. It is the worst thing that we do with our wallet. What we should really do is to read the label considerately, check the quality and limitations and then think how badly we need this item and how its cost will affect our budget. For example you have decided a range to buy three dresses in $20, and the piece you liked costs $16 then you have to leave that because you can never buy two outfits in just $4. Also take care the digits of the price i.e. prices like .99 or .78 matters a lot to your budget without your notice.
Use More Instead of Buying More
There are some people who use their clothes like a tissue paper. Don’t be like them! Always care your wardrobe by handling and washing them gently. While shopping, check the item whether it is machine washable, hand washable or dry clean only. It’s better not to pick dry clean only dresses as you’’ have to keep paying for every wash.
Clean Your Wallet on Clearance Sale
We understand that the variety and quality that is offered at designers is unmatchable and you surely want to buy stylish outfits from there. For that, wait for clearance sale which usually holds valuable discounts. Don’t rely only on in-store sale but also seek online discounts available at various online retailers.
Shop Basics from Generics
When you are about to shop for your basic wears like plain tees, lounge wears, bottoms etc. you don’t need a designer label on them. Even your intimates are the stuff for which comfort and quality is more important than anything else. So never spend too much amount on these things by purchasing them from renowned brands but shop for them at the generic stores which offer the basic at reasonable prices.
Rest for the Best Season to Save Best
The smartest way to shop is to buy the things at the end of the season. Most of the stores charge high for the latest volumes and for the things which are in trend. On the other hand, at the end of a season, they offer big discounts when they have to empty their recent stock for the upcoming latest variety. Be sure to avail those season ending sales to shop for the next year.
Upgrade Fashion on Your Own
Your style is all about the things that suit you the best. It’s not necessary that everything perfectly matches your personality, so when you are running after a fashion trend, stop! Think twice that whether will suit you or not. If Yes! Then try to be creative and design a dress on your own according to the latest fashion trend. It’s the primary saving key for the clothes. Or you can renew a pre-owned thing to give a latest style to yourself.
Don’t Sorrow, Just Borrow
Don’t feel shy in borrowing clothes from friends or family when you are feeling sorrow due to high prices of the dress. Especially when you have to attend a color code party or a themed event, then instead of purchasing that clothes, ask your closed ones for them. For pregnant women, we suggest to borrow or swap some clothes from a curvy friend instead of spending much in shopping the clothes that will be useless after few months.
Make sure that your closet should have pieces that can add right potential of your styling. If you are purchasing something that doesn’t fit to your closet, its only waste of money and it will end-up staying in closet and will be of no use. Be smart to pick pieces following our tested and tried money saving tips and rock!
