Always buying clothes but never have anything to wear? Here are instructions on how to develop a wardrobe.
•Stop impulse buying.
•Eliminate everything that doesn’t fit or that you haven’t worn in a year in your wardrobe.
•Go back and get rid of all the stuff you fudged on the first time around.
•Identify a theme to your wardrobe, relying on favourite looks, colours and lifestyle pieces
•Decide on three colours that either match or will coordinate with what you own.
•Establish a workable budget.
•Make a list of all the items you need in your wardrobe.
•Set aside an hour of time each week to shop for new clothes you need.
•Avoid trendy items.Buy clothes that will span two to three seasons
•Purchase only clothes that work with something that you already own.
• Avoid punchy colour and trendiness with accessories, shoes and handbags.
•Try to plan your wardrobe around three neutral colours like black, white, khaki, navy or brown.
•Buy more solids than prints – you won’t get tired of them as quickly.
