If you answered no, to any of the above then you have to consider if the item is still worth spending your hard earned cash on! For example if: The colour doesn’t flatter you…then consider what you have to do to make it flatter you. Do you have to invest in accessories or maybe wear more lippy to make it work and, is it still worth the spend? The shape/cut doesn’t suit your body shape…then forget it! Why wear something that isn’t right for you? The style is not suitable to how you wish others to see you…ask yourself “Do you want to be seen differently?” or “How will wearing that item make me look?” No use wearing a studded belt if you are trying to achieve a classical look no matter how much the belt is reduced in price! The item doesn’t match anything else you currently have in your wardrobe… are you then prepared to spend more on other items to make the sale item work? If not, then leave it on the shelf! Tips 1 2 Don’t impulse buy…unless you have asked yourself the above questions and given yourself the right answers! Just like we shouldn’t shop for groceries when we are hungry…don’t shop for fashion when you feel down or “yucky” about yourself, chances are you will buy things for emotional reasons not rational ones. Remember: We always feel good when we wear something for the first time because it is new and a novelty…the best purchases are those that we feel good in on the tenth plus times we wear them!
