Looking Good Without Stretching Your Budget
By Jillian Bietz
In these tough economic times, it's just not feasible to buy a new wardrobe. But it doesn't mean you can't start the year off with style! Give your 2008 clothes a 2009 spin without spending. Recession proof your wardrobe with accessories.
Instead of buying expensive items you'll toss come springtime (like heavy sweaters), wear last years. Unless it doesn't fit or is in very bad condition, save your money and suffice to buying only functional accessories. Although wintertime is usually about a darker palette, pastels have made a surprising appearance. So why not winterize your favorite spring and summer dresses? Add a long sleeved tee shirt, a pair of printed or patterned tights to keep warm (Layers are key!). New accessories will add a fresh update to your look. Luckily, cheap ones aren't hard to find. Chunky bracelets, a knit beret and matching gloves, a long necklace- the options to accessorize are endless.
A new cute scarf will perk up any ensemble. This year, thick, knotted styles are in. This wrap/scarf/shawl from Target surely fits the bill. With a cute print a cozy texture and a pricetage under $20, it's a perfect addition to any wardrobe.
This sparkly beret from Target is also very chic. It'll keep your head toasty and help you look stylish at the same time for only nine dollars.
For $6.80 , this long, oversized necklace of colorful beads and baubles is a great find. Looped around or worn long and hanging, it is a versatile piece.
You can watch your budget and still update your look. Before you buy, check through your accessory drawer for fun finds you might already own!
