A Big Life: From Runway to Real World

Sissy and The Budget Fashionista Kathy Finney offer tips for picking the perfect outfit without putting a hole in your pocket.
  1. Dress for the person you are now. This means shopping for the kind of person and body type that you are at this time in your life rather than the person you were five or ten years ago. This will ensure that you look hip and fresh and that your clothes fit right.
  2. Make sure you know what you are looking for. Big department stores can be really overwhelming with all the sales racks and discounts. Have a plan so that you don’t get lost in the endless racks of clothing.
  3. When buying an item always consider the “cost for wear.” You take the cost of the item and divide it by the number of times you think you will wear it. This will help you decide if you are getting your money's worth.
  4. When you are looking to create an outfit in a bargain store take one item and focus on that. By building an outfit around one item it will help make your outfit a success.
  5. Jeans are in this season. Dress them up by choosing a nice fitted top with a belt. If you don’t have a thick belt, you can use two thin belts to finish the look.
