Tips for Buying Your Fall Wardrobe on a Budget

Shop online for deals.
Shop the deals online, you may find more discounts online than in stores due to having more variety and stores to choose from. However, you can also wait and shop for your fall wardrobe on Black Friday, online or in stores an save a ton of money that way too.

Go to discount stores that hold second-hand clothing.
You can find a very cute selection in stores that sell lightly used clothing as well. For example, stores such as:

Bear Market
Plato's Closet

...or even thrift shops or yard sales can be a great option for finding affordable fall clothing. Just remember, "one man's trash can be another man's treasure."

Check your closet for fall clothes you may already have BEFORE you shop.
Give your closet a good fall season sweep and organize your clothes by season. You may find you have a ton of fall clothes already that you forgot about because you haven't worn them in forever.

Create a wardrobe capsule.
A wardrobe capsule is a small collection of clothes that can work for any season and go with many things. For example, you may have a fun summer skirt, that can also look amazing with a pair of leggings and boots, which could be a GREAT fall outfit. Choose 10 to 15 items and save money by using them throughout the year.
