<\/p>\nFinding ways to express your personal style can be tricky when you don\u2019t have a lot of money to spend. It doesn\u2019t have to be impossible, though. In fact, there are plenty of fashionistas out there who have unique styles that don\u2019t break the bank.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Whether you enjoy keeping up with the latest trends or prefer to set the trends, we created this guide to help you discover how to express your personal style on a budget.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
If you start most of your days by staring blankly into an over-stuffed closet and feeling like you have nothing to wear, you may think that you need a total wardrobe overhaul.<\/p>\n
Think again.<\/p>\n
Even if looking in your closet leaves you feeling completely uninspired, there are likely some amazing pieces in there. After all, you probably did pick most of the clothing in your wardrobe yourself, right?<\/p>\n
Spending some time digging through your closet and reminding yourself why you fell in love with certain pieces in the first place doesn\u2019t cost a single penny. It can also help you reconnect with older garments that you may have forgotten about.<\/p>\n
Figure out which items you wear most often, and think about why they\u2019re your favorites. Maybe you love the color, the cut, or the way it feels against your skin. Whatever the reason may be, embrace it. Then, start looking for additional pieces in your closet that share similar qualities or would work well with your tried-and-true favorites.<\/p>\n
Just like you likely have garments that you love, you also probably have ones that you hate and skip over every time you open your closet door. Rather than trying to make them work for you, get rid of them.<\/p>\n

When you are trying to express your personal style without breaking the bank, the clothes you don\u2019t <\/em>love can work to your advantage. You can sell them for cash online, at a consignment shop, or at a resale shop like Plato\u2019s Closet or Style Encore<\/a>. You can then use that money to purchase clothing that better suits your style.<\/p>\n Another option is organizing a swap day with your friends. Have everyone bring a bag or two of clothing and accessories they don\u2019t wear and then take turns swapping items. Swapping with friends is a lot of fun, it\u2019s free, and it\u2019s great for the environment.<\/p>\n When you are working with a limited budget, buying in bulk may seem impossible. When it comes to wardrobe staples \u2013 like t-shirts and hoodies \u2013 buying in bulk may be a lot cheaper than you think. In fact, it\u2019s possible to buy a dozen wholesale t-shirts<\/a> from The Adair Group for what you might expect to pay for a single high-quality tee from a retailer. If you have a classic, simple style, plain t-shirts are perfect as they are. If you are going for a flashier look, though, you can customize them in all sorts of fun ways. You can screen print them, embroider them, tie-dye them.. the options are endless!<\/p>\n When you buy essentials in bulk, you can take care of a large portion of your wardrobe without spending a lot of money. That, of course, leaves more room in your budget for statement pieces or accessories.<\/p>\nBuy Staples in Bulk<\/strong><\/h2>\n
