5. Think Of The Future

Planning ahead is not only a smart but also a very pocket friendly quality to possess. Looking at sweaters and leather jackets in the peak of summers will surely make you cringe, but go ahead and invest in them. Off season deals are the best, no? Also think if you have any upcoming functions to attend a few months down the line. Sales are the place to shop for events that require you to spend a lot!

6. Go Online!

You’ll find some of the most fantastic deals on items you otherwise would spend a bomb on!

7. Keep Up With The Trends…

…the smart way! You don’t HAVE to follow the trend just how it is. Know what suits you, be choosy and most importantly, be you! Stay true to your style and look for items during sales that are trendy, yet not so cliche.

Sales are tempting, but that’s not something we didn’t know! So stick to your budget and make sure you stock up on all the things you need to give yourself a pocket friendly makeover. 🙂
