Style inspiration is important because it
not only gives ideas on what to wear but it helps in the process of finding the
right pieces. I’m definitely the type of person who will look for even little
details when it comes to buying anything that I’ve seen on a celebrity, as I
know that whatever style they’re wearing will be in a store that I shop in, in
some form.
Though I would love the buy the exact
article of clothing they’re wearing, it’s not possible at the moment, so the
details help. A lot of stores follow what’s happening in fashion right now and
try to make it accessible for shoppers by offering it at more reasonable
prices, so that no matter what your budget is, you’ll still be able to buy
that style or trend you love.
A few helpful tips when shopping for
inspiration:
-Save a photo of what you want on your
phone, you so you know what you’re looking for. Eyeing a designer top with
stripes? Know what size stripes you want and it’ll help when searching at
stores.
-Keep an eye out when it comes to seasons.
A lot of designers will stick to trends that become popular and stores will
produce them soon after.
-Fit is important. If you know what look
you want, don’t be afraid to try on articles of clothing in 2 different sizes
(your normal and 1 size up, or down) to help determine the best fit.
-Wear the proper undergarments. It makes a
huge difference and saves the trouble of having to step away from something
that you love.
-Remember you’re allowed to be picky.
Whether you’re spending a lot of money or a little, you want to enjoy what
you’re buying and wear it proudly. So if something’s not right, don’t buy it
(and trust me, I’m very picky about what I buy!).
-Give your budget a little space, but don’t
go overboard. If you’re planning on spending 50 dollars on something, and what
you find is more than that, think on how often you’ll wear it and what you’ll
wear it with to figure out if it’s worth spending more.
-Keep your options open but don’t stray too
far. If you find something you love, but aren’t sure, walk away but know that
you have a time limit. A lot of stores sell out of items faster than you think
and not every store will carry the same pieces. Take an hour walk around and if
then you still don’t know, it’s not meant to be.
I hope these tips help you out when
shopping for those inspirational pieces!
