Fast fashion store

There is certainly room in your closet for some trendy pieces from affordable fashion forward stores, but they shouldn’t comprise the majority of your wardrobe. Having several $20 to $30 items instead of one $100 plus items might seem like a bargain, but the $100 plus one won’t loose it’s shape or fall apart after several wearing’s. Great value for a season or two.

I have shopped at Bardot, Sportsgirl, Portmans and Kmart to name a few of the lower end budget fashion stores. Even better around SALE time.

Ok, you do need a keen eye to buy that one piece you can mix and match with some of the other more expensive items in your closet. The trick is to co-ordinate and harmonise to achieve that great looking ensemble.

I’ll give you two examples:
