I have a passion for fashion (you can tell, right?), But not so much for shopping, which is something that bores and overwhelms me: the lines in the changing room, too many people everywhere, … I'm from the Which you prefer online or, when I can, take a tour of a store that I particularly like. And I go, buy, and home; nothing to spend a whole day going in and out of Zara, Mango, Uterqüe … When I say these things to my friends, they all ask me the same thing: “And how do you know that the clothes you buy are as beautiful as they seem? What if it doesn't have the quality you imagined later? "

And that's when I tell you all the tricks to make cheap clothes look expensive that I have learned after a long time, reading about fashion and having grown up among fabrics. 

  1. When in doubt, a classic garment. Everything classic seems more elegant: a white shirt, straight jeans, a camel coat, a white dress, an LBD , some black pumps … 
  2. If you have to choose a pattern, let it be polka dots . Maybe it's because of my obsession with the Julia Roberts looks in Pretty Woman , but whenever I see a polka dot print, I remember how elegant the actress was in that polo match in the brown dress with white polka dots. Another proof that it is one of the most sophisticated patterns is in the polka dot designs that we have seen on the Altuzarra or Carolina Herrera catwalk, they cannot be prettier. 
  3. Organza, satin as a substitute for silk, tweed All these fabrics are rich in themselves, take advantage of the game they give and choose garments that are made with them. 
  4. On the hunt for clones. There are those who enjoy answering the Trivia questions and I confess that I feel a kind of personal satisfaction when I see in a low cost garment the similarity with another high-end one. Call me freak if you want, it's no longer a secret. And it is precisely this 'gift' that is another key that makes cheap spring clothes look expensive: I buy clothes in low-cost stores that are as similar as possible to the designs on the catwalk. 
  5. Skin seems, skin effect is.  Who doesn't like to have a good bag? But when you like them so much, you have to pull your wits so as not to leave the account shaking. A good option is to bet on a leather effect bag, the kind that are crocodile skin effect, which also has that stately and classic touch that I have already told you about. 
  6. And that the jewelry looks like jewel. The golden earrings, with pearls … will always add zeros to your look. 

Have I convinced you? Keep reading and discover the shopping that I have prepared for you with cheap spring clothes that seem expensive.
