Bold accessories add punch to your outfit.
With the rapid fluctuations in fashion from season to season, you might wonder how you can keep your style fresh and stay within your budget. Adding style and creativity to your wardrobe can be affordable -- and with a little planning an imagination, can even be free. If you're tired of wearing the same old outfits but new clothes aren't in your budget, a few simple additions can change your whole look. You can also revamp clothes you already have using only a pair of scissors or swap clothes with friends and get a new look for free. Does this Spark an idea?
Instructions
1. Tie on a scarf. One of the easiest ways to update your wardrobe is to add a scarf. Fold a large square scarf into a triangle and drape it around your shoulders, or tie a smaller scarf around your neck and wear it like a choker. There are so many ways to accessorize with scarves that you can have dozens of new looks just by adding a different scarf or changing the way you wear it. Look for bright colors and bold patterns to add edge to a neutral outfit.
2. Accessorize. Another easy way to update your wardrobe is to incorporate some trendy accessories. A piece of artisan jewelry, new shoes, a striking handbag, a stylish hat or colorful stockings can really freshen up your look without breaking your budget. Opt for accessories with embellishments like rhinestones or embroidery for added impact.
3. Turn your plain T-shirt into a halter top or a dress. If you're creative and fearless, you can give you T-shirts new life without sewing a stitch. Grab a pair of scissors and cut, tie and twist T-shirts into brand new items for your wardrobe.
4. Hold a clothing swap. Clean out your closet and invite a few friends to do the same. Host a party and trade your old clothes for new ones from your friends' closets. Clothing swaps are an excellent way to get rid of items that have just been sitting in your closet and update your wardrobe at the same time. Package up the leftovers and donate them to a community organization in your area that accepts donations of clothing.
