Invest in timeless and classic pieces
Investing in fashion pieces that you love and fit in your style and can never go out of style in years is the ultimate way to save money over time. Keeping up with trends is the fastest way to overspend and fill your wardrobe with clothes that don’t fit your personal style or go together well.

Go for monochromatic looks.
Put together outfits in the same colour. Monochromatic looks give a luxurious and pristine look and feel. Popular Monochromatic outfit colours are black, white, gray, biege, cream, etcetera.
Be more detailed with your outfit pieces.
Wear crisply ironed clothes, avoid wearing a dress with a tear or patch and cut loose threads that might give your outfit a tacky appearance. A wrinkle free outfit is an easy way to look polished and expensive.

Certain fabrics look and feel more luxurious than others. Some give a naturally luxurious and expensive look. The fabric used to make a piece of clothing also speaks to the item’s quality. Opt for clothing made of fabrics like cotton, silk, Tencel, wool, and linen to achieve that luxurious look.
Utilize neutral colors.
When it comes to looking classy and stylish, wearing neutrals is a sure-fire way to dress expensive on a budget. Neutral colours like black, navy blue, beige, grey, white, and a few others are sure to do the trick.
Neutrals don’t go out of style, and you can easily style them with bright and bold colors as preferred.

Look properly groomed.
Taking extra care of yourself and looking clean ultimately projects you as expensive. Keep properly trimmed and manicured nails, make your hair and style it properly and neatly.

Outfits can be built around shoes, and a fabulous look can also be ruined by the wrong choice of shoes. Keeping your shoes in good shape is another way to look expensive on a budget.
Wear shoes in good shape and that fit well and make sure to keep them polished and in good repair.
In summary, looking luxurious doesn’t require breaking a bank. Opt more for classic and neutral coloured pieces and focus on details like fit and grooming and you can achieve a polished look.
Remember, true luxury is about confidence and how you present yourself, not how much your fit cost.
