  1. Tailor Your Clothes

Nothing makes a fashion statement like well-tailored clothes. However, tailor-made clothes are quite pricy which makes it hard for most people to afford. You can still get your normal clothes modified which won’t break your bank. Make sure you find a reputable tailor to do the work and you’ll have well-fitting clothes at a reasonable cost.

  1. Accept Hand-Me-Downs

There’s no need to let good clothes go to waste. Whether you raid your friend’s closet or your mother’s closet, you’re bound to find something that you like and they’re willing to let go of. Besides, your mom’s retro style is coming back in fashion, and when paired when some more modern clothes, it might just work. Try to look for accessories since they tend to be more timeless. 6 Timeless Basic Fashion Ideas To Implement After Looking At Old Photos
