Elegance is not a matter of budget

09.09.2020

Today I will show you little tricks to turn some cheap clothes (who doesn't have them in the wardrobe ?!) into fantastic and chic!

 

CHANGE THE BUTTONS

Can you think of that jacket, blouse or skirt, with a beautiful cut, but with plastic buttons, on which in most cases the brand is written?

 

You can buy from the nearby small-wares beautiful buttons with which to replace the plastic ones and in a few minutes your garment will get a completely different look.

 

USE THEM AS A DECORATION

You can also use interesting buttons as a decoration for a sweater, bag or skirt.

 

DIFFERENT SEAMS

A detail that gives low quality to a garment are the contrasting seams. Usually, such seams make the garment look more casual and generally less elegant.

 

If the seams are only decorative, unseam them with scissors. If they are the seams of the garment, try to replace them with hidden ones.

 

CHANGE BELTS

We often buy cheaper clothes that have a belt. The first thing I do is to throw away the belt - it's always low quality.

 

The easiest way is to replace the cheap belt with one made of genuine leather, which I already have at home and which certainly changes the image of the whole outfit. I often use a belt, even if it is not necessary - to enrich the dress, blouse or pants.

 

USE YOUR SILK SCARF NOT ONLY…

The use of a silk scarf may not be just the traditional way familiar to all of us - around the neck.

 

A good solution is to use it as a belt! A dress can get a completely different, chic look if you put a silk scarf as a belt. You can also tie this scarf on your handbag.

 

FOCUS ON ACCESSORIES

When it comes to planning your clothing budget, focus on accessories. I'll explain why:

 

A beautiful bag can change the image of a mediocre dress. A beautiful dress will never look good with cheap accessories. On the contrary, the whole look will look cheap.
