Update Your Look!

It's almost back to school time and most high school kids want to find some new clothes to update their style. If you can't afford to overhaul your wardrobe, try a few of these tips for a new wardrobe for less than $100.

• Find things that can be used in more than one way or outfit.
• Check out when sales are going on and don't pay full price
• Always head to the sales rack first
• Don't forget about thrift stores. You might not be able to find the latest trends, but you can find your basics there. 

Here are a few items that are cheap, but can really update your wardrobe.

• A cute sweater can dress down a nice dress or even dress up a t-shirt. A great sweater in a neutral color will work with almost anything in your wardrobe.
• It's summer so make sure to check the clearance racks for some good deals on sweaters. Here's a great casual sweater that is under $10! 
• One trademark necklace is all that you need. I personally wear a necklace that I got a Macy's last summer that is supposed to give positive vibes. Check Forever 21 or Fred Flare for some great pieces from disney to birds. 
• A couple pairs of jeans is all that you need. Try to get jeans that are dark washed and straight legged. This way your jeans will be able to be dressed up or down. Also, jeans can be worn for up to a week and will be less likely to get stained. 
• A cute dress that can be worn for dances and daily wear is also nice to add to your wardrobe. Check H&M and Forever 21 for great dresses for cheap prices.
• This white dress would look great with some bright accessories or worn with a colorful cardigan. 
• A floral dress always looks good and here's an example of one under $15.
• A nice pair of black tights that are available at walmart or target can turn a summer/fall dress into a winter dress with ease. It's also great if you don't want to shave that morning.
• A couple of camisoles are important, just make sure not to pay more than $10 for each. You can get camisoles for $2.50 each at Forever 21.

Just make sure to spend your money wisely. Pay more for pieces that can be worn in more than one way. Also, pieces that can be worked into every season and even new trends are great.
