Smart Shopping

You spend time and money on glossy fashion magazines trying to spot the latest trends. You buy shoes and clothes based on what top stars, film stars and models are wearing. Tight-fitting jeans are now considered a "must have" whereas the baggy jeans you spent much money on last year are presently considered old-fashioned by Teen Vogue. Almost everyone would like to have designer clothes and expensive shoes. But is it really worth spending all your pocket money on items you won't even wear in a couple of months? If you really want to become a smart buyer here some tips:

1__

Be responsible. Do not spend a lot of cash on things that you know will be out of fashion within the next six months. Pay attention to the quality and the material. Do not spend money on a T-shirt that's made of cotton just because it's designed by Armany. It's not logical. Before you buy that red leather jacket take a minute to think: do I have matching shoes? Does the colour suit me? If you want to buy something smart for a formal occasion get a plain, elegant, white shirt or a black, silk dress. They will never go out of fashion!

2__

Your taste in fashion is certainly influenced by TV and advertisements. Despite the fact that you've always hated leather trousers and velvet suit, you start to think that they actually look cool because they are now being worn by major trendsetters like Kate Moss and David Beckham! Do not compare yourself to unrealistic images. You can't wear the same clothes as runway models. It's just not practical.

Don't pay too much attention to the latest trends. It's more important to wear something that suits your body and your personal style. If you walk with confidence even a pair of old scruffy jeans or a knitted sweater can look trendy. No one will like you more just because you have a designer handbag. It's all about self-confidence!
