How to dress well without spending much

Dress well without spending too much e maybe not wasting money è impossible, e all it really takes is a few small adjustments e also choosing the right purchases in the right places e savings, without giving up elegance (which always includes sobriety), è insured.

We start from the wardrobe, where there is certainlyè some items to recover, e you get up to the flea markets e to the outlets.

Take care of your wardrobe: to remove unsightly golf balls and woolen clothes, run an electric razor or razor blade over them, being careful not to damage the garment.

Go shopping in your closet: find clothes with beautiful prints and quality fabric, take them to a tailor and have them re-adjusted to your shape: a dress that fits you perfectly will seem more chic than it actually is. If you look carefully, you'll surely discover some pieces you haven't worn and that could be useful with a simple tailoring touch-up. A vintage dress, in short. The important thing is not to follow trends, but to have your own style.

Posh tone

If you find a coat, a jacket or blazer made of a material that doesn't wrinkle easily, you can give it a "posh" tone by replacing the plastic buttons with metal or fabric ones, which will immediately give it a more sophisticated touch. È You can find them online at a good price or in your local haberdashery.

The right purchases in the right places

There are always good opportunities for bargain shopping. Pay particular attention to:

• Sale e outlet: seasonal discount programs (beware of scams, always lurking with this type of proposal) or outlet  they are excellent solutions.
• Second hand – vintage: flea markets, second-hand shops or apps including Vinted/Depop. Physical locations are always preferable to virtual ones, especially because, in addition to shopping at the right markets, there's a sense of sharing.
