How To Look Elegant And Chic On A Budget
It's never necessary to spend lots of money in order to look elegant and chic
. For example, there are women that can spend thousands on their wardrobe and still not look great and others who will go shopping on a budget and look ready for a magazine cover. It all boils down to having a proper look and style since any woman can learn how to look elegant on a budget.
Anyone can appear polished and chic while giving off that persona of elegance when they choose wisely. In short, spend money where it counts and be stingy where you can get away with it.
The elegant woman will spend the bulk of her budget where it counts the most on her face and her hair. This doesn't mean hiding the face behind tons of makeup and loading the hair down with lots of product. It does mean getting the best haircut that she can afford without that enhances her face naturally and spending for facial toiletries which benefits the skin and regular facials.
Keep the body free of hair where needed and keep the eyebrows, especially, neat and clean. Regular tweezing or waxing at home can take care of this without a problem. Having the skin scrupulously clean and everything else groomed will mean a need for less makeup to wear. A sheer layer of translucent powder, the right shade of lipstick, a bit of blush, and black or dark brown mascara will be all that is needed. Perfume is needed as well, but will really smell better on top of a clean body.
Nails need attention, too. These are what people notice first when they are talking to a woman. Keeping a low-key buff on the nails is the cheapest way to attend to them as there will no longer be a need for professional (and expensive) manicures or pedicures.
Wise clothing choices can really stretch the budget. There is no need for designer clothes or the latest fads if a woman's wardrobe is in top form, with everything mended, kept unwrinkled, and fitting the body well. If something is too loose or too tight, it won't flatter anyone.
Classic clothes look good on everyone, with touches just added with personalized accessories to make the outfit their own. A foundation of dark pants, dark jeans, a dark jacket or blazer, a complementary skirt that just hits the knees, and good-fitting t-shirts and blouses make up the perfect wardrobe. Pops of color can come in with scarves, bags, and tops.
As long as the pants, skirt, and the jacket or blazer fit well, nothing else needs to be expensive. Change your mood and your color scheme with the inexpensive fillers the tops and accessories.
Shoes should never be cute. These come and go with fashion and can clean out your budget in no time. Classic pumps, ballerina slippers, good sandals, and fuss-free plain sneakers in a dark color can be staples of almost any wardrobe. Choose the foundation colors first and then add fun colors afterward if you wish.
Bags need not be expensive either, just in a shape that complements your style and in colors that suit the season.
