Fashion Tip: Mix It Up

Fashion is a personal thing and it's important that you find your own style that best expresses who you are. There are many fashion stylists and magazines who will tell you what's "in style" and what's "out". Everyone has an opinion of what's good fashion and what's bad, right?

I'm not here to tell you how to dress, however, I will tell you that you should dress the way that compliments your body and feels good to you.

That said, I would like to share a fashion tip that has worked for me. Because my clothing budget doesn't allow me to splurge on all designer pieces for my wardrobe, I've had to compromise by purchasing low-end items and mix it up with high-end items.

I've always believed that spending more on accessories like shoes or handbags is a good investment. In my opinion, wearing a $29 dress with a really nice handbag will make you look more stylish than wearing a $300 dress with a cheap-o pair of shoes.

Have a fashion tip to share?
