The cost of looking good is often too high to justify. Owning a variety of fashionable outfits can cost hundreds of dollars and leaves less money for essential living expenses. Investing in some versatile items is a way to keep your wardrobe on trend without spending a fortune. The following items cost less than $50 and can be used in a number of different outfits, helping you diversify your wardrobe without stretching your budget.
Singlets
Singlets can be built into a range of outfits and are often worn with jeans for an easy casual outfit. If you’re heading to the beach, a singlet with shorts can hide your swimsuit and makes for easy changing. For a more professional look, a singlet in a neutral colour can be tucked into a long pencil skirt and worn under a blazer.
Pencil skirts
These skirts are favoured for the instant elegance they give an outfit and are increasingly being worn in casual outings. An stylish blouse tucked into a
pencil skirt has long been used for work environments, but pencil skirts with crop tops or jumpers can easily be worn in more relaxed gatherings.
Knits
Comfortable and easy to accessorise, knits are in no way restricted to winter. A
thin knit jumper can be styled over shorts or leggings. Alternatively, tucking a knit into a skater skirt and accessorising with a bright necklace makes a trendy choice for a social dinner.
Leggings
Leggings are loved for their ease of movement and versatility. A pair of leggings with a crop top makes a chic outfit with minimal effort. If you enjoy an active lifestyle, leggings can easily be worn with a sports bra to make a comfy gym outfit. A jumper over leggings and boots will keep you warm and dry on colder days.
Dresses
A dress can form an entire outfit without causing worries over matching colours and patterns. A
slip-like dress can even be worn with a crop top or jumper over the torso to add some colour to your outfit. It can also be worn over a bikini if you’re heading to the beach. Of course, the easiest way to wear a dress is simply on it’s own, leaving you free to accessorise.
