Ever thought about doing something nice for your man, like giving him a makeover or buying him a nicer, classier set of clothes? Ever realized that you might not have the money to do it? Well apparently, many people associate high cost with dressing well, but this does not have to be the case.
There are ways to dress your man well, while sticking to a budget, whatever that budget may be. For example, you can use coupon codes for your favorite retailers, check out sales and find stores that cater to those who want to live a fashionable life, but don't have thousands of dollars to do it. Below are some more tips to help you make your man look his best, while sticking to a budget.
Watch Out for Sales and Special Offers
Many retailers will have end of the season sales, where you can score big discounts on items that they need to clear out to make room for the upcoming season. Many of these sales happen well before the end of the season, so you will be able to save money on items you can use now. Follow your favorite stores on social media to never miss a sale and be sure to shop once you see the end of season sales starting.
When you shop at a store, they will often ask you for your e-mail in order to sign you up to their mailing list. By providing your e-mail, you will often be sent coupon codes you can use towards your purchases, which can have significant savings when shopping. So if this is your retailer of choice, next time you are asked, consider providing your e-mail address to be added to the mailing list.
Find a Good Tailor
Inexpensive clothing may not fit perfectly off the rack, which is why you will need to make friends with a decent tailor. Having your clothing adjusted to fit well will make it look more expensive than it is, which may be exactly what you are looking for. A simple hem is not overly expensive and can completely change the look of your pants.
Shop at Thrift Stores
Thrift stores and consignment shops are great options for shopping on a budget. The items there are often gently used and at fantastic prices. Considering vintage looks are so trendy right now, these shops are your best friends when it comes to finding on-trend clothing.
Big Box Retailers
Once you have a few basic items from higher-end stores, considering padding your wardrobe with finds from big-box retailers. Not only will the items here be considerably cheaper, but paired with your tailored finds, you are going to be looking great while sticking to your budget.
Sticking to a budget for clothing does not mean you need to sacrifice your man’s style. Helping him look and feel good about himself doesn’t need to be overly expensive or cost you an arm or a leg. Knowing the right things, and understanding how you can make the most out of your money may still be half the battle, but once you get the hang of it, you can save so much, and make your man feel like a king with little effort.
