If you’re anything like us, then purchasing clothing is one of your biggest recreational expenditures. It’s easy to go above your budget when shopping online (especially if you’ve had a glass of wine before you fire up the laptop), so read on for our top tips for saving money on your clothes.
Inventory Your Closet
This tip may take you a few hours, but it’s worth your time. It’s simple enough—just pull everything out of your closet, and then try it on. If this sounds tedious, don’t worry! We can all but guarantee you’ll find a tonof clothing you don’t need, and we’re betting you’ll also discover that you have more than a few redundancies.
Once you finish, you’ll have a great sense of the clothing you absolutely don’t need any more of, and you may find a few pieces you can sell to make a little money back.
Thrift Shop
This tip is no big secret, but some people forget that it’s an option! If you’ve had a lot of bad luck in thrift stores, we suggest heading into one right after it opens. Many people think that thrift stores lack good options because they show up after all the best pieces are gone. In truth, this is your chance to score the perfect outfit for a bargain.
Stick With the Classics
If you’re up for a challenge, you can try paring down your closet to a simple capsule wardrobe. The idea is to keep a limited selection of clothing that’s completely interchangeable. A capsule wardrobe allows you to create a ton of outfits with only a few pieces. You’ll want to hang onto the classics like your best blouses and jeans that will never go out of style.
Now that you know these top tips for saving money on your clothes, you can keep a little more and waste a little less. You’ll thank yourself later!
