Break necks without breaking the bank

We all know one proud fashion enthusiast who doesn’t just turn necks, they come close to breaking them. The one who even on a bad day they don’t look like their problems.

Fact is human beings are a very visual species. If you walk into a room of people your demeanor, body language and your dressing will do more of the talking more than your speech will.

Good style is not a luxury. It is an investment. But an investment needs not be expensive.

Staying fashionable on a budget can be a challenge, but it’s definitely possible. Here are some tips for looking stylish without breaking the bank:

 

Shop at thrift stores and consignment shops: These types of stores often have gently used clothing and accessories at a fraction of the cost of new items. Plus, you’ll be able to find unique pieces that you won’t see everyone else wearing. With a quick wash with a high-quality washing detergent like Toss Bright right after your purchase might add another layer of sparkle. What’s more, with a detergent like Toss Bright, you get extra protection for your colors.

 

Shop sales and clearance racks: Many stores have regular sales or clearance events, where you can find discounted items. Keep an eye out for these sales and be sure to check the clearance section whenever you’re shopping.

 

Invest in classic pieces: Instead of constantly buying trendy items that will go out of style, consider investing in a few classic pieces that will stand the test of time. These could be a good quality pair of jeans, a little black dress, or a tailored blazer. These types of items will never go out of style and will be worth the extra cost in the long run.

 

Mix and match: Don’t be afraid to mix and match pieces from different price points. You can pair a high-end piece with a lower-priced item to create a fashionable and affordable look.

 

Rent or borrow instead of buying: If you only need an item for a special occasion or just want to try out a trend, consider renting or borrowing instead of buying. As much as the trend is yet to pick up here in Kenya, you can look around the few websites and stores that allow you to rent designer clothing and accessories for a fraction of the cost of purchasing them.

 

Get creative with DIY: If you have some basic sewing skills, you can save money by altering or repairing your own clothes. You can also get creative with DIY accessories, such as making your own jewelry or updating an old bag with some new hardware.

 

Look for deals and coupons: Keep an eye out for coupons and promo codes from your favorite stores, especially style influencers, and don’t be afraid to negotiate for a better price when shopping at smaller boutiques or markets.

 

By following these tips, you can stay fashionable without breaking the bank. Remember, fashion is about expressing your personal style and feeling confident in what you wear – it doesn’t have to be about spending a lot of money.

Additionally, after care is important. Just because you got that clothing piece at an unimaginable discount, doesn’t mean it doesn’t need the love accorded to a designer jacket. Toss gives you multiple options for multiple fabrics. From Toss white, Toss Liquid detergent hand wash, Toss Blue and one that is developed for your washing machine.
