If you’ve been walking around the mall these past few days, you’ve probably come across SALE signs on every possible corner. The prices are super attractive and make us think that “it’s a shame to miss”.
So just before we storm the stores, it is important to shop smartly, so that the items we buy will be useful to us and not just “sit” in the closet.Because, paradoxically, a closet full of useless items causes the feeling of “I have nothing to wear.”
Smart Shopping Guide
Make a list
Before going shopping, put your closet in order, check what’s there and what’s missing, and prepare an organized and precise shopping list.
Build a budget
Estimate the price of each item on this list, think about how much you’re willing to pay for it, and build a budget accordingly. When you have a precise budget, buying is more thoughtful, and you buy far fewer items that you don’t really need.
“No” is also an answer
Help store employees locate the items on the list. They know the store best and can offer you a variety of style items you want that you wouldn’t necessarily find or think to measure. But! Don’t be afraid or uncomfortable telling store sellers “no.”
Buy what you need
Don’t be tempted to buy what you already have in your closet. Stick to the list and buy only what you really need.
When in doubt, there is no doubt
If you’ve measured a fashion item and you’re not sure about it, you look at it again and again and ask yourself: Does it look beautiful? Is it right for me? Is it worth the price? Probably the right thing to do is not to buy. Even if the price is only 30 NIS. An unusable item is an unnecessary item in the closet .
Remember, if you buy smartly, only the items that will really serve you, you will get a more accurate wardrobe for you. This will save you money, as well as time. Without “I have nothing to wear”, “Why would I fit it?” and “It doesn’t look good on me”…
