Inflation certainly isn’t helping our budgets, but there are ways we can save on fashion, be it Fall or any season.
10 Ways to Save on Fashion in the Fall
Your closet is always a great way to save as we head into a new season.
When you purchase something, do you ask, “How many ways can I wear this? ” ” How can I style this into the next season?”
I have plenty of midi dresses that I can add a moto too or a blazer and change out my shoes to boots.
Here in the South, it really doesn’t get cold until November or so.
So, the first tip would be to look at your closet, see what colors you have for Fall, and utilize those. Try styling with an added piece and boots.
Off-Season
Off-season is always a great time to take advantage of sales, and store away those gifts for the Holidays. After season sales as well. You know you can get great buys right after Christmas, but we seem to be broke then, so I am not able to do this as much as I want. I did, however, purchase gifts already for Christmas and have been doing so, as I find off-season goodies on sale, and just store them until Im ready to wrap. Not to mention, it is less stressful to buy things a little at a time instead of all-in-one month, as well as it is spreading out your finances.
Take Stock of Your Closet and Write Down What You Need
As a fashion blogger, I know I can over buy. “Need” is a very strong word. Well, if we just bought what we needed, we have about the clothes on our back and a few other changes of clothing. If we love fashion, that is a tough one, but we can be smart about it. I utilize these ways of saving, take stock of the “holes” in my wardrobe, and filter out what I may not be wearing each season. Our style evolves, so what you loved years ago, may not apply, but do donate.
Set a Budget
This is key as well. Although it may be fun to purchase fashion willy-nilly, or when it “fancies” you, it isn’t the best for your budget. I have a monthly budget that I stick to, and find ways to make my dollars go further, as I have mentioned here. I think setting a budget allows you to also buy what you will really appreciate and need in your closet. Now, when I finally do get to Italy, that doesn’t mean I won’t shop a bit “willy-nilly”, because heck, it will be a reward!
