* Purge the Old – You know there are clothes in your closet that you will not wear again. Whether it is due to the fact that they do nor fit or they are out of style, just get rid of them.They clutter up the closet and make finding an outfit more stressful.
* Make a List – Now that you know what you have, you need to know what is missing from your wardrobe. Make a list of your wants and needs. Keep a copy with you in your purse and by the computer for shopping purposes.
* Buy Basics – Work wardrobes are pretty easy to put together when you buy traditional styles and basics. Black, white, grey, navy, red can all be mixed and matched. You can then add accessories for the pops of color that you love. The classic and traditional styles will last forever and always be appropriate for the workplace.
* Be Careful of Trends – While a lot of trendy pieces are beautiful, always think about how it will integrate into your work wardrobe. If it is something you will only wear for a season, skip it for something you can wear more often or as a layered piece.
* Shop Discount Stores Online and Off – Use your list to find the classics you love at discount retailers online and offline. Look at shops like Macy’s, Ann Taylor, Marshalls. Hautelook, Nordstrom, Burlington Coat Factory and similar for clearance items and sales. Don’t forget outlet malls too! You do not have to pay full price for fabulous clothes and you can get a better quality that will last a lot longer than a low quality, cheaply made item.
* Always Watch the Clearance Sales – End of season sales can gain you some fabulous buys! Always be watching so you can pick up a piece here and there.
