Every now and then we may want to update our wardrobe. This process doesn’t have to be expensive. Here are some tips for how to refresh your wardrobe on a budget.
Tips for Updating Your Wardrobe
1. Go to Pinterest for inspiration: Create a Pinterest board and start saving looks that you love. Pin everything that you find stylish. Click here to see the style inspiration board I created.
2. Analyze Your Pinterest board: Go through your board and analyze what kind of outfits you saved. Make a list of common themes you find. What colors appear the most often, what type of items show up most frequently, what sort of fit do you prefer? Use your board to learn your style preferences.
3. Clean Out Your Closet: Go through your closet and get rid of items that you no longer love, no longer fit, and no longer wear. Give these items away to a friend, a charity, or a clothing swap to make room for items you will actually wear.
4. Hang Your Clothes: Go through all of your folded clothes hidden away in drawers and hang them instead. This way you can see all of the clothes you own and no items will be forgotten.
5. Organize By Color: Organizing your closet by color keeps things neat and makes it easier to pair pieces together. It also makes your overall closet look more aesthetically pleasing.
6. Host a Clothing Swap: Gather a group of your most stylish friends together to hang out and trade clothes. This is a free and sustainable way to update your wardrobe.
7. Shop for Statement Pieces: Take a regular outfit and add a thrifted statement piece to update any old look. Bold items are conversation starters and outfit transformers.
8. Buy Accessories: Instead of purchasing new clothing, focus on buying new accessories instead. Whether it’s a belt, a hat or a necklace, accessories can transform any outfit.
9. Download a Closet Organizer App: These apps allow you to take photos of your items in your wardrobe. You can mix and match pieces and save outfit ideas. This is great for days that you don’t know what to wear. Some good free closet organizer apps are Closet Love & GetWardrobe.
