While we don’t necessarily advise following the adage “new year, new me,” there is no harm in making tiny, doable, and constructive changes to your life. We also don’t advise placing pressure on yourself to remodel your entire way of life simply because a new year has begun. The beginning of a new year may be a perfect time for many people to simplify their lives and assess what they really need, especially in terms of their wardrobes.
The wardrobe resolutions we’ve outlined below can help you make space, save money, and look your best ever.
Don’t buy something just because it’s on sale or for one specific occasion
Never purchase something only because it is cheap. No matter how inexpensive it was, buying something you won’t wear is a terrible waste of money.
Try to have a few dressier pieces in your closet that can be worn for a variety of occasions rather than buying specific items for particular occasions. You can wear it repeatedly if you choose something straightforward and more classic than trend-driven. With the right accessories, it will never feel like the same outfit.
Don’t buy or keep anything that is unsuitable for you
Many of us keep items that we know don’t fit us in addition to holding onto things that don’t fit. We frequently purchase items on impulse because they are popular or because we think they look beautiful on someone else, but because we just do not look well in them, we never actually wear them. A item of clothing has no place in your life if it doesn’t make you feel good about yourself and at ease.
Try to find out about new brands
We become accustomed to and loyal to specific stores, which is why we fall into style ruts. It’s fantastic to have a core group of favorites that you can rely on and know will hold up well, but there are constantly so many incredible new brands on the market that are just waiting to be found. Keep exploring all year long, from pricey mid-range companies to high-end designer labels. You’ll come away with some very unique and fashionable finds (that – bonus – nobody else has)
Prefer rental fashion
Renting clothing has never been simpler, with a tremendous increase in the number of fashion-rental companies available, thanks to growing environmental awareness. For a variety of reasons, renting is a terrific approach to build a more fashionable wardrobe for yourself. First off, you frequently feel as though you are wearing fresh clothing, which is wonderful for special events like weddings or parties where you might have already purchased an outfit for only that one occasion. Another benefit is that you can be a little more daring with what you try; by stepping outside of your style comfort zone, you might discover excellent pieces that you otherwise wouldn’t have been brave enough to buy.
Never undervalue the power of a capsule wardrobe
You don’t need a lot to look beautiful; being truly stylish doesn’t require a huge budget or three walk-in closets’ full of luxury clothing. Making wise decisions is what you really need to do.
Purchase only what you require and enjoy, and let go of everything else. And take care of your clothing. It only takes 15 pieces to complete.
