1) Do you love it? No really that is probably one of the first thing I ask myself. I know if I love something if in the next 3 days I am still thinking about that item. Then I will love it forever! I have done this on many occasions for just about anything. Before you put down the cash on something a bit crazy for your tastes think about it. I have probably saved hundreds on this. Plus the thing you might love is another Cheetah shirt!
2) That color you "can't" wear, you can! My main color is black to be honest, but when it comes to wearing a color I just wear it. Some ways to off set the color from my skin would be wear it as a pant instead of a top, wear a blazer thats neutral to cut it from your face. Maybe get that color in a pattern if you don't think you can pull off the other two.
3) Make sure your basics are in good shape. As much as we would love to have unlimited skirts tops and bottoms, I think it's more important to look at the basics because that fancy skirt you have would never go with the pit stained white tee. Hey, I am just being honest. Basics are one of those tasks where I just pick up I barely look at what I'm getting. This also counts for socks, tights, and undies!
4) Fiber Content is one I suggest but you don't have to do this. It has been my goal a little over a year to start trying to make my entire wardrobe 100% natural. This is harder than you think! This can include linen, cotton (the cheapest), silk (my favorite), leather, and wool. I do this a lot for the environment because it is important to know what you will put back into the environment once you are done with a garment. I don't discourage or ever tell people they can't buy polyester but I personally want to care about where my clothes came from and how it will end up.
5) Prices, now this is a tricky one. I have always been the person to beg my mom in high school for the $100 sweater from Anthropologie over a bunch of $10 tees from Hollister. I personally will buy one item for the entire shopping trip. Some people like disposable clothes, because they are cheap, and you can just get them dirty and throw it out. I cannot do that myself for wanting to keep my spending environmentally friendly. Even when I shop at forever 21 I have atlas 6 dresses that are in amazing shape. I am not one to just wear and toss. When prices are high not always but usually they are better quality of fabric.
6) Shop local! I can't stress this one even more, and I do work for a big box company. I get my basics there, but when it comes to shopping at local boutiques go for it! It's amazing what you will find. Though sometimes the prices might be a bit more, you feel better putting your money back into your community. This can even be just for accessories!
6) Re-shop your closet! I get super lazy too about clothes I probably have about 5 outfits that I wear all the time. It's sometimes better to re-shop your closet then spend any money at all. Remember that silly thing you brought three years ago, play dress up see if you can make it work.
