When you donâ??t have much money to spend on clothes, it can sometimes be difficult to work out how you can manage to look stylish and keep your wardrobe looking fresh and up to date. But there are plenty of people that manage to do just this and there secret is that they know which pieces of clothing to buy and when and where to buy them. They never waste their money on buying clothes that donâ??t fit or suit them or that they simply never get around to wearing. Here are some of the top tips on how to get a really stylish wardrobe on a budget.

Recognise what clothing looks good on your body shape â?? by recognising which clothes really suit you, it doesnâ??t matter how much money you spend, you will always look stylish. You will also avoid mistake buys.

Buy a few well fitting basic pieces that can be accessorised for different looks â?? It is so much easy to put together a stylish outfit and get dressed in the morning when you have basic items in neutral colours. They are so much more versatile and work for so many more outfits and occasions.

Top up with low cost fashionable accessories to keep your look fresh and up to date - accessories are such a great way to follow a new trend. They allow you to try it out without spending too much money and if they go out of fashion next year then it wonâ??t be the end of the world.

Find retailers that sell quality clothes to last at a great price â?? shop around for prices on the internet but also pay attention to quality. Buying poor quality clothes is definitely a false economy as they may fall apart and begin to look shabby quicker. If you wear clothes that are great quality it will show and you will save money in the long run as they will not need to be replaced so quickly.

Shop in the sales to get even better value â?? If you are in desperate need of some new clothes then why not try shopping in the sales, you will get much more for your money and if you choose classic styles they wonâ??t go out of fashion quickly. Roman Originals has some great sale items which are both up to date and stylish.

Ensure the clothes that you buy are suited to your lifestyle â?? It is no good buying lots of pairs of high heeled shoes if you never wear them. As nice as they may look, they are not working for their money if they just sit in the wardrobe every day. Decide what you spend most of your life doing and what type of clothes you need for this activity and concentrate on filling your wardrobe with these items.

Find new ways of wearing the clothes that you already have â?? if you start to get bored of your wardrobe, there is no need to replace it all, top up with a few new items then try combining and wearing the clothes that you already have in new ways. For example day dresses look great when layered over a long sleeve top.

The summer sales are a great place to buy a bargain or two and everyone loves a bargain. But whilst some people seem to manage top buy just about everything they need in the sales, others end up with lots of clothes that they never wear. A bargain is only a bargain if it is something that you really need. By keeping focused and choosing carefully instead of being seduced by the great prices, you can fill your wardrobe with lots of great clothes at a fraction of their original price.

This year the summer clothes seem to be going on sale just as the weather is hotting up so there will still be plenty of opportunity to wear your sales purchases this year. Here are out top ten tips on how to bag some great bargains in the sales.

1. Get there early – as the old saying goes ‘the early bird catches the worm’ and this is so true when it comes to the sales. The soon you shop after the sale begins, the more likely that you are to get the best items in your size.
2. Assess what you really need before you start – go through your wardrobe and work out what you already have and where the gaps are. There is no point in buying more evening dresses if you haven’t even worn the ones that you already have.
3. Pick out the items that you like before the sales start
4. Look for items that will take you from autumn to winter – you will get instant value from any items that can be worn in the autumn and winter as well as the summer. Tops that can be layered are a good option as are dresses that can be worn with a cardigan or bolero.
5. Try not to impulse buy – it is so easy to get over excited and buy clothes that you won’t wear. Don’t do it, that money could be better spent else where.
6. Only ever buy clothes in the right size – It seems obvious but it can be easy to get carried away. No matter how gorgeous the dress, don’t buy it if it is not your size, It won’t fit and it won’t look good on you.
7. Check out returns policies before you buy in the sales – in some shops it can be more difficult to return sale items. Ask to see what their returns policy is on sale items.
8. Look for classic styles that will not go out of fashion – the more wear that you can get from an item of clothing, the more of a bargain it will be. Not only do classic styles look great but they also be good for next year and the year after.
9. Try not to be tempted just because of the price – there should be something that you really love about an item that you buy in the sales. If the only attraction is the price then don’t bother buying it.
10. Shop online to allow you to easily search for exactly what you want – shopping the sales online avoids all of the elbowing, pushing, shoving and trapsing around the shops. It is also much quicker and easier to find what you want.
