1. Never buy the Wrong Coat
The fall/winter season will be here in no time, don't wait til the last minute to get the perfect coat. I was surfing the web and came across this tip from instyle.com. Having the perfect coat is VERY...VERY....VEEEERRRRYYY IMPORTANT! During this season what's the first thing everybody will see?....your coat. What ever your city's climate is your coat can still be Awesome.
To save a buck, shop smart--- Try websites like Alloy, dELIA*S, Forever 21, and H&M for trendy outerwear.
This tip is great for every body type, but it really serves a purpose for Apple and Pair Shaped women. Wearing a loose top with tight bottoms will balance out the shape of your body as well as the look itself. Being a Pear shaped female myself, I love to wear leggings but to make my look ---look its best... I have to wear a top that does not cling to my mid-section (problem section).
When I was employed at TJ Maxx I love to work in the Jewelry/Accessories Dpt. If you don't know where to purchase a beautiful scarf from TJ's is the place besides DSW. They have awesome prices for designer scarfs or shawls. While working there I noticed we were receiving circle scarfs during the fall season and I fell in love with this style, but I already had a bunch of regular straight scarfs. When I shared this with a co worker, she gave me a little secret.
Take the two ends of the scarf and tie them into a neat knot, when you want to wear it, double loop the scarf around your neck and it will fall just the way the like it. (Also, if you want to make it permanent, sew the ends together with a sewing machine or by hand)
If you look in your closet and notice black, brown, white, gray...boring! It's time you went out and purchased a bold bright color to lighten up your wardrobe. Don't be afraid to play with color and prints, if you don't want to go all the way...try accenting your calm outfits with a bright pop color. For example, if your wearing all black (for some reason...lol jk) try popping a bright pink handbag or chunky necklace to add a focal point to your look.
When we go shopping, we pick up just about everything we think we like or might fit--- and 8 out of 10 times we don't need it or it's not really our size. Now this might not apply to everyone, but this was certainly me a few months back. Before you go shopping to add pieces in your wardrobe, check your closet like you would the fridge before grocery shopping. See what you need first before you buy a bunch of things you don't need. Make a list of those items with a desired budget, give your self a little grace period no more than $5 extra. This will help you shop smart and save $$$$.... Oh yea and don't forget to try on items before you purchase them. It's nothing worse than buying an item you really like and can't fit it when you get home.
I hope these tips and tricks will help you and Tell me your favorite tips.
xoxo,
Jill
