In this issue, I will talk to you about the effective ways of saving money among contemporary fashionistas and how they should save money!
Three ineffective ways for fashionistas to save money
1. Purchase the same style
For example, when buying clothes, some fashionable ladies are very discerning. Once they find a style that suits them, they will not hesitate to buy all the colors of the same style in order to show a different style every day!
2. Purchase similar models
Some fashion girls, once they find that they are suitable for a certain style of clothing, they will buy in large quantities without restraint. As long as it is clothes of this style, they will buy them without hesitation.
And they think this is the most effective and cost-effective way to avoid wasting money by trying other inappropriate styles.
3. Advance consumption
There is also a group of fashionistas who are keen on off-season consumption and snap up next season’s items in advance. They think they are getting a bargain, but they don’t know that they are actually falling into a money trap. They excitedly buy those cross-season clothes, but often find that most of these items are overstocked, and those clothes they can’t wait to buy can’t be worn right away.
When the weather is really suitable, you will find that the clothes you like have lost the amazingness when you first saw them, and will most likely end up in the bottom of the box.
How to save money on fashion
1. Rational consumption
In fact, real fashion does not lie in blindly pursuing trends, but in consuming rationally, choosing according to your actual needs, and trying not to consume in advance or stock up!
Those fashionistas who blindly pursue out-of-season consumption, buy in advance, or blindly follow trends are actually creating hidden dangers of waste in their wardrobes. Many times, the clothes hidden deep in the bottom of the box are still new clothes that have never been worn once when they are abandoned.
2. Choose only one of the same clothes
Although the styles of clothing that suit us are limited, there is never just one choice. As you age, your body shape and temperament will change, and your suitable style will naturally evolve accordingly.
So we don’t have to be completely irresistible when we see something that suits us in a similar style. In order to practice the concept of “less but better”, we only need to buy one piece of clothing of the same type.
Don’t buy another piece of clothing of the same style simply because it has one or two fashion elements added to it.
3. Fully master the technique of wearing one piece of clothing for multiple purposes
For fashionistas, wearing more than one outfit is the real secret to financial management! Be good at integrating a single item into each of your outfits. To do this, when buying clothes, you should not only consider whether the item is beautiful, but also consider whether it will complement other items in your wardrobe. Only this kind of purchase can make your wardrobe rich and colorful and match more fashionable styles.
Secondly, when purchasing clothes, we should think about the suitable wearing season from a vertical perspective. The ideal option is one that can be layered under a layer in winter or worn alone in spring and autumn.
For example, a T-shirt is an extremely classic and practical item that can serve you all year round! Not only can it be worn alone in summer, but it can also be layered with other clothing as an inner layer in the other three seasons, showing a variety of styles.
Not only T-shirts, there are many such items among the many styles of clothes. For example, suits, shirts, sweatshirts, etc. are all items that can last for at least three seasons. As long as we can use our brains, we can definitely make them give full play to their strengths and produce stunning effects for you.
4. Learn to mix and match
The reason why fashion bloggers are able to wear amazing fashion sense does not only rely on crazy shopping, but also stems from their clever matching of clothes. Their wardrobes are not filled with cookie-cutter items, but rather cleverly mix and match seasonal fashionable elements with classic styles to create an eye-catching personal style.
Therefore, this also has certain guiding significance for us ordinary people to buy clothes. That is, we need to distinguish whether the clothes we want to buy are popular or classic. The optimal ratio of popular styles to classic styles should be controlled at 3:7. Don’t blindly chase popular styles and bite off more than you can chew, as they come and go in a hurry!
Of course, we cannot blindly indulge in classic styles, otherwise fashion will become like a cup of bland boiled water, losing its due taste.
