5 strategies to elevate your look on a budget
It is a myth that you need a lot of money to look fabulous. By reviewing your closet, you can find great treasures with a lot of potential. This article aims to help you discover clothes and combinations that allow you to stand out without having to spend too much.
Caro Salazar, image consultant and personal stylist, shares essential strategies to achieve an impeccable look without making new purchases.
- Playing with Textures in a Total Black Look: A total black look always projects elegance, but to really achieve its goal, the key is to mix textures. Combining materials such as faux leather or leather with wool, cotton or knit adds depth and grace to the outfit. If the same textures are used from head to toe, the result could be flat and monotonous.
- Opt for Neutral Colours: Neutral colours are also allies to elevate a look, as they transmit calm, well-being and harmony. With the clothes you already have at home, you can create monochromatic looks in beige, white or cream. It is also possible to play with pastel tones, which will provide a cleaner, purer and softer effect. The fundamental rule is that less is more.
- The Importance of Personal Care and Clothes: An elevated look depends not only on clothes, but also on the condition of the hair and the maintenance of the clothes. It is essential to keep the hair clean, healthy and styled. No matter how expensive the clothes are, if the hair looks faded, unkempt or dirty, the desired impact will not be achieved. Ironing clothes well, removing lint from sweaters and linen clothes and making sure that shoes are impeccable are details that make a difference.
- Accessories: Less is more. When it comes to glasses, watches or hair accessories, it is advisable to avoid those overloaded with glitter and exaggerated details. Elegance lies in subtlety: simple and timeless accessories will be a better investment. If you already have eye-catching accessories, it is not necessary to put them away, but you should take care of the balance. The key is not to saturate the look.
- Matching Combinations: A set of pants and blouse is an excellent option for a sophisticated look. In addition, wearing shoes, belt and bag in the same color or style line helps to achieve a more harmonious image. Far from being out of fashion, it is a foolproof strategy.
- Wear Original Clothes: It is not necessary to buy designer clothes or luxury items, but it is recommended to avoid imitations. In Colombia there are many local brands of excellent quality and affordable prices. Opting for pieces that reflect each person's style and personality will always be the best option.
