We all know how expensive
designer fashion can be. A simple article of clothing
can cost upwards of a couple hundred dollars at least. Don't
get me wrong, I love designer fashion and there is no way I
would even consider eliminating it from my wardrobe for
non-brand name labels but, over the years, I have found some
very helpful ways to maximize on the designer pieces in your
wardrobe.
As a fashion enthusiast, I feel it is my job to pass on my
knowledge and help other fashion oriented individuals get
the most for their money when it comes to the wonderful
world of designer fashion. Below you will find a list of 3
great ways to make the most of the existing articles of
clothing in your designer wardrobe:
- Mix and Match
Sure a designer outfit can
look absolutely amazing and you'll want to wear it
everyday
but you can't! Wearing the same thing all the
time will take away from the uniqueness of your designer
wardrobe. Simply mixing and matching different pairs of
pants with the same shirt can completely change the look
of an outfit. Likewise, changing your shirt can change
the look even more. Don't be afraid to separate your
designer pieces, they weren't made to be together.
- Play Up Your Accessories
Believe it or not,
designer accessories have the ability to make or
break an outfit. They also have the ability to
completely change the look of an outfit. For business,
you may want to keep the accessories to a minimum but
when you're done work and heading to a social gathering,
simply add a couple long necklaces, some bangles and a
pair of hoop earrings and you'll be surprised the
difference it makes.
- Sport a Layered Look
Sometimes, the more
articles of clothing you wear, the more
put-together
your look becomes. This year, layering is a huge trend
that actually maximizes the versatility within your
wardrobe. Two shirts worn separately offers 2 completely
different looks but when worn together offers a third,
completely unique look. Also, adding scarves and blouses
can make for a great, ultra unique look as well.
These 3 simple tricks can really make a difference when
it comes to making the most of the clothing you have. In my
humble opinion, it's better to have 5 pieces of high
quality, designer clothing and a couple
designer handbags than 20 pieces of low quality clothing
and cheap accessories. You get what you pay for! Hey, nobody
ever said looking good was easy!
