Remember when you were young and you believed that you had to spend a fortune on the latest fashions the day they hit the racks? Of course it was worth every penny just to be in style. Well, we are older now but the years have not changed our minds about what’s important. Looking great and being in style are just as important at 30 as it was at 18 and probably more important now. What likely has changed is our disposable money, it has gotten smaller over time and looks like it may stay that way for some time to come. That’s OK; this is not the end of the world or the end of our shopping days.
There are a couple of options for shopping on a budget. First keep shopping at all your favorite stores; mine are Macys, Express, Pac-Sun, and The Limited. While shopping at your favorite stores keep in mind one important thing try to buy on sale. This can be very difficult, you want the new merchandise because it's new and exciting you haven’t seen it on anyone else yet and it looks so great on the model in the poster on the wall. But it's not on sale, not yet anyway. Another thing that makes this difficult is that the store is telling you that you want this. It is in the front of the store, lining the walkways and of course the newest items are always on display on the mannequin. There is a reason for all of this; the newest items are within arms reach. So, browsers become buyers. These tactics will not get us though, because we are not browsers, we are shoppers. We came hear looking for a new blouse, skirt, or pair of jeans that will look great and we will ware for the whole season and maybe next (maybe). So go for it, shop, look, search for what you really want and get it (on sale if at all possible) but do no just buy what you see. The sale rack may just have something much better!
