My Style Hacks

I'm certainly no slave to fashion and I don't spend much time shopping. My budget at the moment doesn't allow me to do either, however, there are times when I know it's time to increase the options in my closet. What do I do? Well in this post I'll share some of my frugal fashion tips.

 Now I know most of you are thinking yard sales and consignment shops are the obvious solutions and those work great for most. I don't go to either. I just don't like going to yard sales or consignment shops. I've just never found either to be very successful options for me as most consignment shops are crowded which turns into an obstacle course when you are in a wheelchair. Yard sales involve several stops which means several transfers, and that's only if the site is level and has easy access. Too much time and trouble when you have no guarantee they have what you are looking for. I usually always have a general idea of what I'm looking for. This is important so I'll say it again KNOW WHAT YOU ARE LOOKING FOR. It doesn't have to be exact. Maybe you saw someone wearing a certain color or pattern and loved how it looked. Just start with that. Then shop at online discount dept stores for something similar. For example, I recently saw a vest I liked but it was very expensive so here's how I copied the look for less. The funny thing is I went out wearing my new bargains and not one but FOUR total strangers complimented me on the vest I was wearing. Each time I just smiled,said thank-you.    Puffer Vest $9 Jeggings $10 Boots $21

Trust me when I tell you I still love Ralph Lauren and all my other favs but a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do.
