How to dress very well without spending a lot of money. It can? Of course, it is just a matter of knowing some tips and tricks that I will teach you today in this post. Keep reading ...


1. Invest well.


Don't spend a lot of money on clothes, invest in wallets and shoes. The reason? The clothes spoil very quickly and go out of style, you will inevitably buy clothes just because they provoke you on a certain date and then you will no longer like them. Wallets and shoes usually last longer, they are not so subject to trends (there is no fashion portfolio every season) and the quality of a good wallet or a good pair of shoes are decisive to achieve a sophisticated outfit, when you do you buy a dress of, let's put it, 30 soles, very few people will realize the price because it can look great. In short, if you want to dress well with little money, instead of buying 20 cheap dresses, buy yourself a good wallet or a pair of shoes.



2. Do not discard, fix or recycle.


It happened to me, that I bought a dress with a length a couple of years ago, which at that time I liked, for example, the length in the middle of the calf, but over time I no longer felt comfortable with this guy dressed and instead of throwing it away or giving it away I take it to the seamstress to fit where I want. And not only does this happen with modifications as simple as a long one, if you have a jean jacket that seems boring, customize it, but super fashionable patches, make a few torn and you will have almost a new garment. At this point, it is important to have a good seamstress who knows your measurements and does not charge very expensive and have patience and creativity.



3. Keep your clothes in good condition.


Take care of your clothes, worry because they are clean, ironed, without hair and neat. To do this, you must have an iron on hand, a fifth roller, and some scissors to cut the labels of the clothes. Just as it cost you money, you have to take care of your things and so not only will they last longer but an ironed bag with wrinkles does make a difference.



4. Accessorize your clothes.


There is no look that a good necklace or pair of earrings cannot lift. Again, the trick here is not that you have 20 bags, 40 skirts or 50 pants. No, with a couple or three of each you can handle yourself very well if you combine them with accessories that look sophisticated, modern, fun. A maxi necklace in golden tones, for example, raises an all-black or denim (jean) look. On the contrary, if we have few or almost no accessories, our small repertoire of fashionistas pieces will be notorious.



5. If you are going to invest in clothes: invest in BASICS


You have probably heard this several times and it is very true, the basic garments are the foundation of your look, on which you can create many styles with wallets, shoes, and accessories. Therefore, it is important to invest in good basics, not fashionable clothes of the moment, such as a pleated skirt or a crop top. Investing in basics will allow you to put together many outfits.


The basics are:

  • A white blouse.

  • Black and white poles.

  • Black coat or trench coat

  • Jean, according to body shape.

  • Cocktail black dress

  • Black or navy blazer.



6. Offers.


We are all excited about the offers, but you have to be very careful about being a victim of them and end up buying to buy. The key to taking advantage of the offers is simple: do not buy something you do not like and that you know you will use very little just because it is cheaper. In the time of offers, buy the same as you would buy if the price was not discounted, be as thorough as you are when that dress is at 100% of the price since the price does not make the quality of the dress.


Another tip that I give you is to know that there are offers and offers. That is to say, there are very minimal offers that go from 10% to 30% and although they are a discount, they should keep an eye on the seasonal settlements, there are many things that they can buy even for the current season since the weather is very unpredictable as we know.



7. Purchase online


Although in Peru we are not yet a very adept country to buy online, I advise you to at least try it once and see how it goes. On the internet, there are many bargains and very nice things. Be careful, yes, with the sizes, check the delivery time. If you are charged for shipping an additional and as a final advice, never save your debit or credit card information.



8. Observe your life, what do you need?


Once I saw some high-heeled shoes and rhinestones, they were on sale and they were perfect; However, my mother told me, what are you going to buy them for? And I thought and yes, it made no sense to spend money on shoes to wear them on any occasion that had not yet arrived. I say this because one cannot buy something and then create the need, you cannot buy a feather dress for when you are invited to the red carpet someday of your life.
