I'm not suggesting that...

I'm not suggesting that it would be fun to dress on a budget all the time but if you do it just for a while you will really begin to hone your skills in co-ordination. 

Everyone's lifestyle is different - so what you will need for your day-to-day activities will also vary.

The most important thing is that every garment fits you well and flatters your figure so that you'll look good in everything you wear. However many times you wear them.

And how to shop on a budget...

Choose the best you can with a limited budget and look around because there are always BARGAINS to be had! Choose basically plain garments that can be dressed up or down with accessories to change the look so that you can wear them for many different occasions.  

If you can afford a little more for a higher quality then the garments will more than repay you with a classier look and will retain their good looks for longer.  If you don't have to replace the initial purchases your budget can move you forward. 

When might you need a Budget Capsule Wardrobe?

If you have to ... when funds are low or circumstances are against you - you can build a Capsule Wardrobe on a budget quite easily once you understand the fundamentals.

Sometimes we have to take a real long hard look at what we've got to wear. Perhaps...

  • You're shocked at the lack of clothes that fit you properly now that you understand your Body Type and Shape
  • You've had a really good Wardrobe Edit and you're down to rock bottom 

  • You have a brand new job and hardly any of your clothes will do?
  • You've just had a baby and have very little that fits? 
  • You've lost your luggage on holiday - most of your wardrobe has been stolen? 

Come on, times are hard - I don't need to explain it to you! And sorry to be facetious but this kind of challenge teaches us all just how far we can go with very few items!

How to begin...

Working with your current limited wardrobe certainly won't be perfect but this is where you can start to plan ahead. It's very important that you know how to choose clothes in Colors to suit you and shapes to Flatter your figure so that, from now on, every garment or item that you add can earn it's place.  

You only need...

the smallest collection of separates to start with.

Developing a capsule wardrobe on a budget requires you to utilize as much as possible from your existing collection. Introduce as many 'link' items as possible into the mix to give you extra mileage - tees, camisole, tanks, jumpers, blouses, shirts.
