Fashion sales are a great opportunity to get hold of pieces that you cannot otherwise afford. But many women over-enthusiastic about getting things for a smaller price, splurge in items that are not useful or cost-worthy. Here are our rules for shopping during clearance sales and other seasonal sales.
Learn the Sale Lingo!
Retailers hope that you’ll be overexcited to see a half-off offer that you won’t notice that you already need to make purchases over $100 for it to apply! Make sure you understand a sale offer before grabbing it.
Have a Plan
Don’t you dare go shopping without a list. It doesn’t need to be that specific, a general plan would suffice. Narrowing down your needs will prevent you from splurging on unnecessary items. You’re just looking for a LBD, deal?
Is it me?
Don’t be lured by a cheaper price. Is the item you’re drooling over wearable? Is it something you’d wear, or is it contradicting your signature style. Many women fall for such sales items, that’s why it’s a rule of the thumb to always try out your clothes before heading to pay for them!
Keep Calm and Go Shopping
Be Sale Shopping Smart
Sales are a way for shops to clear out stock before the new season kicks in. Don’t invest in too trendy fashion items. Go classic, a white shirt, a blazer, black or red peep toe heels,a beige trench coat. Invest in key wardrobe items that you can wear year after year. Unless it’s something dirty cheap, better keep off!
Online Savvy Buying
Waiting in line to try clothes out can be long. Beat the lines and shop online. Usually online sales not only do they start earlier but they also provide much more generous offers. Just remember to fully understand their shipping and return policies.
