7 Simple Ways to Perk Up Your Wardrobe on a Small Budget

By Crisa Barriball
For many people, buying a new wardrobe each time they become bored with their old clothes is not an affordable option. If you are one of these people, there are a few things that you can do to save yourself some money and perk up your old wardrobe to stretch it out a little longer. Use some of the ideas or all of them, depending on your own style and budget.
Use scarves throughout the year. There are a variety of scarves out there to fit any season. Mix and match with bold patterns, bright colors, and anything that you connect to. Scarves can be worn in numerous ways, too. You may be surprised to see what a cute scarf can do to your tired clothes. Experiment with a few different ones to see which you like the best.


Shop for cheap vintage jewelry. Mixing vintage jewelry with any outfit can be a lot of fun. Vintage costume jewelry is often cheap and can be found at flea markets, thrift stores, and yard sales. Pair some classic and timeless pearls with your go-to jeans and t-shirt, or wear a glittery and eye-catching brooch on your scarf or a belt to really give it some pizzazz.

Use accessories on your shoes. Some people think that all they can do with shoes to change the look of their appearance is to change laces or dye some pumps. That's definitely not the case. Lots of shoes have the ability to be transformed with clip-on attachments. These attachments can be flirty, fun, or elegant. Some come dressed with jewels, flowers, or chains. Your shoes will instantly look different with these clip-ons.

Buy a few new pieces to mix in with your wardrobe. Look for sales and good deals on new cloth that you'd love to own. Buy clothes that can be paired with the clothes you already have to make your wardrobe last a lot longer. Great items that can be matched well with other clothes are clothes in solid colors. Buy a few neutral colors and a few that have pops of color.
Don't underestimate the power of nail polish and lipstick. You are what makes your wardrobe look great, and when your nails are freshly painted to complement what you are wearing, your whole look can seem fresh and new. This is also the case with lipstick. Some bold colors can bring out the colors in your clothing more easily than you might think. You should experiment with lipstick to see what looks best with your skin tone and your clothes.
Change it up with a new purse. If you love purses, this is a great excuse to shop for some more. Purses come in a wide variety of styles and colors. Pairing them up with an outfit and shoes can be a lot of fun, and it can make your wardrobe look great while you are out shopping or anywhere that you have your purse on hand.
Shop at thrift stores to search for hidden treasures. You can save lots of money by browsing through used clothing and other items. You never know what you might find that you will fall in love with. Look for accessories, handbags, and clothing in these places and you might find yourself with a new favorite way to shop and improve your wardrobe.

However you choose to spruce up your wardrobe, make sure you are thinking in the long-term. Avoid buying items that you think you will only wear a few times at most and buy something you can use over and over again instead.
