It’s normal for us all to feel that our outfits are lacking that certain ‘something’ from time to time. It can be tricky to know how to add that little extra sparkle to our attire without overdoing it, or without having to shell out heaps of cash on expensive accessories.
Adding sparkle and finesse to our wardrobe doesn’t need to cost an arm and a leg however so today we are walking you through our guide on how to add special items to your wardrobe without breaking the bank.
Thinking Thrifty
It’s not necessarily what we buy that matters, but how we buy and where we buy from. So putting in some research into where we can buy unique pieces and statement items is well worth the time. Looking for local thrift shops and finding out when and where local flea markets are happening in your area is a great place to start when looking to find something unusual and interesting.
Thrift shops and flea markets are a superb place to pick up cool pieces such as colourful broach’s, one-off jewellery and vintage belts coats and bags. As they say one person’s trash is another person’s treasure, so it’s well worth spending time considering what pieces would add that extra va-va-voom to your overall style.

Clothes Swap Party
Friends exchanging clothing is nothing new and all of us are used to borrowing and lending the odd item of clothing with our pals. However the new phenomenon of wardrobe shopping is one of the best ideas we’ve heard of in a long time. The concept is that everyone brings together clothes and accessories that they no longer wear and you all choose the items that you fancy. You trade in your old clothes and accessories and go home with bagfuls of new ones. A complete wardrobe overhaul without spending a penny.
Keep Your Eyes Peeled for Bargains
There has never been a better time to bag yourself a bargain. With endless sales and promotions it’s never been more affordable to indulge yourself in a little extra bling bling. Keep your eyes peeled for sales and special coupons to look for items that could really rev up your wardrobe. Even high-end designers are getting involved so you can even add expensive designer items without spending a small fortune.

Second-Hand Apps
The World of Apps has exploded and luckily enough for us that means there are more second-hand bargains to be found, all at the tips of our fingers. Apps such as wallapop and refashioner are fantastic ways to sift through interesting and unique items that you may not necessarily find on the highstreet. These apps not only offer a great opportunity to add stylish pieces to your wardrobe for seriously savvy-shopper prices but it also allows you to make some room in your wardrobe by selling some of your pieces and make some cash for yourself. Out with the old and in with the new.
