How to shop the end of season sales
Well it is that time of year again...SALE SEASON.
This is a go to guide for how to shop the sales, what to buy, what to leave on the rack, and what to keep in the back of your mind/closet.
Things You'll Need:
a list of what you need
fashion magazine
an open mind
Step
1
Go into your closet and look at what you need. Is there something that every time you go to get dressed you think, "I need that"? Put it on the list, in fact I keep a pad of paper in my closet for if this ever comes up, I keep a list of things I need to add to my wardrobe.
Step
2
Write down what colors you already have in your closet so that it will be easy to coordinate...feel free to take pictures and keep them with you to remember. Also, notice which garments you have in what colors. Do you have olive pants, blue shirts, or a red skirt? This will help you choose garments to compliment your closet.
Step
3
Look at your favorite fashion magazine, find things that you like and write those on your list as well. This will keep you on track with what is coming into style. One of the best is the list of what to keep, what to store, and what to get rid of.
Step
4
Some hints...the "as is" section can be very useful.
1. If there is a button missing, see if there is one attached on the inside, this is a really easy fix.
2. If the zipper is broken or not working properly, a seamstress can replace it for a small fee, but the amount you will save is GREAT.
Tips & Warnings
If you are worried about color, stay simple and neutral.
If you are in between sizes, always go up, tailors can take them in later if needed- if you buy the smaller size they will never fit properly.
Check for stains, if it is makeup that comes out, buy it!
If the stain is a lot stronger...I always take a shout pen and try to get it out. If it starts to dissolve buy it, it will probably come out.
