top 3 do-not’s of shopping…

so it does not matter if you are shopping high-end…thrifting…online…or at the mall…here are my top 3 “do-nots” while shopping…in the long run…it will save you a closet full of “nothing to wear” and a whole lot of money…trust me…

do not…buy an item because it is the latest trend…drives me crazy when i hear someone say “it is the latest ‘in’ thing”…if the latest “in” thing is a purple jumpsuit…and you don’t look good in purple…well…most likely it will be the jumpsuit you don’t look good in…but i digress…why would you buy one?? stick to what looks good on you and your body type…

do not…buy a size that doesn’t fit you now…if you are a size 10…do not buy a size 8…or worse yet…a size 6…because you are planning on losing weight…buy the right size at the right time…besides…do you really want a “too-small” piece staring at you every time you enter your closet…reminding you that you haven’t lost the weight you thought you were going to lose? why do that to yourself?

do not…buy something just because it is on sale…i agree…paying $125 for a dress that cost $300 is a fabulous deal…but if you don’t need it…or really don’t even know if you will wear it alot…that savings ends up being a lot more expensive than you realize…

bottom line…your closet should be full of items that look good on you…and make you feel good about yourself…

do you have some “do-not’s” that you live by?
