Accessories shops can be your limited budget wardrobe's best friend!
While department stores and clothing shops are crying for business, accessories shops are enjoying increased sales. Why? It's simple. While a new dress can force that credit card out of your wallet, a belt, hat, scarf or costume jewelry piece from the accessories shop can cost very little and make an entirely new costume " or two - for your wardrobe.
A colorful, rainbow-colored paisley scarf, tied demurely at the neck and worn with your two piece black suit and a white blouse makes that suit a chic outfit, all due to the scarf. The same suit, worn with a sleek-fitting red seater and glitzy gold belt, becomes yet another costume. A red leather handbag goes well with both outfits. With just three basic accessories, your wardrobe has new life. Looks like you went shopping for new clothes, instead of making a couple of additions from an accessories shop! It's also likely that you can match each of these accessories up with other items already in your closet.
If you're the mix and match fan, buying separates that can coordinate with other clothing items in your wardrobe, you're a step ahead in the seemingly extensive wardrobe department. This winter's muted fashion colors makes this strategy exceedingly easy. Purples of every shade are the hot colors this winter, making an array of violet, magenta and deep red shades complementary assets to your wardrobe. Hats, belts, patterned scarves, handbags and costume jewelry from the accessories shop become several new costumes.
Items such as hosiery are other inexpensive costume pieces that can make an outfit go from casual to dressy. Sheer dark stockings turn a plain wool skirt into nigh time wear, while a pair of diamond patterned colored stockings are great lunch date material.
If you're one of those who doesn't think they've got a handle on matching accessories to clothing, ask for help from the accessories shop staff. They're experts! While tastes vary, these experts can show you a number of possibilities to suit your purpose. If you have particular pieces of clothing you want to accessorize, bring these pieces in to the shop and watch that sales person whiz around the shop, coming back with an armload of accessories to fill the bill. Furthermore, they can explain how each accessory works as a fashion asset, as well as pointing out ways you can use them with other colors and fabrics. You'll soon get the hang of choosing accessories that maximize your wardrobe and minimize your expense.
When you find an accessories shop that carries items that generally suit your taste in style, cultivate the friendship of that helpful sales person and patronize that shop almost exclusively. That sales person will learn your taste in accessories, so that when a new item comes in, she may give you a call to let you know she's got something hot to show you. Now, you've got a friend on the inside to help you be the best dressed woman around! On a virtual shoestring! - 16651
