How to avoid "bad buys"?


The sales are back! Most people will go shopping, and probably have some "bad buys" on them. This shirt that looks fine and only did cost €5. You should have spent that 5 euros better on that one beautiful jacket that was still at the expensive side. Here are some tips to avoid bad buys next time. 1 nice dress that you actually wear often is better than 5 shirts that were almost free that you never wear. Save that closet space for clothes that are actually worth it.

1. Try EVERYTHING on in the changing rooms. Some stores their sizes are diffrent and even if you're used to the sizes in that store still try it on. Maybe it doesn't look good on you, and you instantly know if you feel good in those clothes.

2. Go to the stores in advance. If you've seen the store before and the articles they sell, you already know where to look for what you want AND you've had time to think about what you want to buy.

3. Don't buy something because it's cheap. Ask yourself if you would want it if it was more expensive and if the answer is yes just buy it.

4. Ask yourself questions about the clothes you want to buy. Will I wear this? When will I wear this? How often will I wear it? Is it worth the price? Do I already have something similar in my closet? Do I have anything that matches it? Does it really fit well? Are all examples of questions you should ask to yourself.

5. Go with friends. They can judge how the clothes look on you with a more clear mind than you can.
