There is no need to spend your entire salary on new or expensive clothes. You can buy used clothes, or just what you have from previous purchases and combine them in a smart way. After all if you have a classic wide black jacket, why should you spend on a new one identical to it?
We come back to the cliché expression: "It is much better to know than to have!" Even a small budget can make you look elegant, classy and expensively dressed because at the end of the day it's how you wear the outfit, not the outfit.
1. A pair of classic jeans, an oversized jacket and a simple T-shirt.
2. A highly functional suit that you will have for a long time.
3. Wear your favorite mini-skirt with a sweater, socks and shoes
4. Long silk skirt (from the summer ones), a wide sweater and sneakers
5. A full neutral colored turtleneck, slacks and a leather bag. Chic and mysterious - what makes you look expensively dressed.
6. Second-skin T-shirt and leather pants.
7. Jeans, a striped top and ballet flats. None more.
8. Autumn/winter knitted dress and gold accessories.
