A useful tip or piece of advice I picked up recently which I’d like to share - before anybody gets all self righteous or on their moral high ground and tells me they haven’t bought anything new since the millennium and only ever buy from charity shops (it applies here too) etc etc etc
When you buy something new, before you take the labels off, try it on in three different ways, different accessories, shoes or for 3 different occasions.
Take pictures of yourself on your phone .
If you can’t find 3 different ways to style it, however much you liked it, take it back, you don’t need it. (Hence the labels and receipts.)
If you can , the next time you are wondering what to wear you will have 3 different suggestions to draw on.
It may sound silly but it avoids impulse buying and possibly expensive mistakes or buying one item (however much of a bargain) and then spending more money or time trying to find things to go with it.
