HERE ARE HIS & HERS’ TOP TIPS FOR UPDATING YOUR WARDROBE WITHOUT BREAKING THE BANK!

When it comes to dressing according to the ‘rules’ of fashion, you have a lot of creativity to work with. And because of that, a lot of people find just the right amount of expression within it; their personality can really shine through, and so can their confidence. 

But sometimes, we can feel our wardrobes lack a lot in the fashion department. It’s not that we hate what we have to wear, just that feel it could do with updating, and want to evolve it a little. And thankfully, there are plenty of ways to do that.

And no, you don’t have to fork out for a bunch of Hawaiian shirts just because the temperature outside is a little higher than usual!

Go Sophisticated with Your Cardigans (and the like!)

When you’ve got plenty of hoodies and sweatshirts in your wardrobe, and you no longer think a thick and dark material pullover really suits you, you can easily make a shift to change your fashion finishing touches. Hoodies can be left at the back of the wardrobe, and only pulled out for lazy days at home or seriously cold mornings in the winter; instead, now’s your chance to join the cardigan brigade, and look a little more sophisticated because of it.

A standard grey or pebble coloured cardigan could be used for so many occasions, and they can be cheap enough to buy from your local supermarket as well! Or you could check out items like that of a Kashmiri Pashmina, if you like the idea of having something you can really wrap around your shoulders to either outline your look or keep a chilly breeze off of your shoulders. And this item can be perfect for any look as well, to really add a sense of class to whichever outfit you’ve put on today.

Find a Shoe with a Bit of Height

If you’re someone who likes to wear flat soled shoes 24/7, now’s the time to rock your world a little. You see, when you’ve got a wardrobe update to undertake, you’re going to notice a pattern in your footwear as you’re clearing it out… And if you’ve got no heels there, now’s the time to make sure you’ve got at least one dressier option for a night out!

Heels come in all heights and sizes, so even if you can’t stand a stiletto, you can find a pair of good Chelsea boots that have something chunky for you to keep your balance on. Don’t worry, you don’t have to sacrifice your style completely in your quest to look sophisticated.

Your wardrobe isn’t a disaster, no matter what you’re led to believe! But you can always update it if you feel the need to, and you’re never going to look better than when you feel as comfortable as possible!
