The Best Ways to Save Money on Keeping Up with the Latest Fashion

You don’t have to be flush with cash to afford the latest fashions. If you want to treat yourself regularly and buy the very latest in fashion trends while saving money, here are some tips that could help you spend less.

 

  • Looking Out for Seasonal Sales

 

The most obvious time to get a discount on new clothes is when a sale is on. The promotional sales calendar for retailers usually starts with the January sales, followed by mid-season sales in March, the summer sales and finishing with Black Friday weekend in November.

And, if like me, you don’t like trawling the shops and fighting for that one last item left in your size, or forget when the sales start, a good tip is to sign up to your favourite retailer’s email list. For instance, since I’ve signed up for Monsoon’s emails, I have never bought anything full price from them again. Online retailers and retailer’s websites often offer huge discounts and can offer you a larger selection of clearance items.

 

  • Using Voucher Sites to Save Money on Purchases 

 

There are several websites dedicated to helping you save money on the latest fashion. For example, Voucher Codes has several vouchers and have a section for women’s and men’s fashion. An example of a savings to be had is an offer I saw today that offered and “Extra 10% off Orders in the up to 70% off Everything Sale at Missguided.” They also have offers on shops like Nike, Boohoo, Superdry and Oasis, to only mention a few.

Another clever way to save money when shopping online is to use cashback sites. These sites are particularly useful if you are shopping at an online shop for the first time. For instance, if you use TopCashBack, they will allow you 8% cash back the first time you shop at Gap online. It also allows you to earn womenswear cashback from 495 other retailers, so is worth checking out. 

 

  • Claim Your Free Fashion Accessories 

 

Some new sites will even allow you to claim free fashion accessories for when money is tight. A great example is the freebie site Wow Freebies, which offers you the chance to get free fashion if you’re willing to do a bit of product testing or be a mystery shopper for a day. At the moment, they have offers listed from companies that will allow you to test and keep a Mac lipstick, earn £100 worth of clothes by being a mystery shopper at Forever 21, and even review and keep your very own Pandora bracelet. It couldn’t be easier!

 

  • Check Your Clothing Labels

 

I’m guilty of always buying clothes that I hope to fit into someday, which means I can’t wear a percentage of my clothes at the moment. The best way to save money on fashion purchases is to buy the clothes that fit you right now. Otherwise, by the time it fits you, you may not like it anymore, or it may have gone out of fashion.

And while you’re checking the clothing item’s label, have a good look at the washing instructions. While a silk shirt may look glamorous, just remember that the cost of dry cleaning it, will be almost the same as buying a new shirt every time.  Unless you have a large budget, stick to machine-washables and save. And follow the washing instructions on the label if you want to get more wear out of them and possibly want to sell it in future.

 

  • Sell What You Don’t Wear

 

If you follow the tips on this blog and get good items at sale prices and take care of them well, you will be able to get a good price for them on websites like Ebay. And if you spend a couple of hours taking good photos and researching how to make your items ‘pop’ you may even be able to afford a few new items of clothing from your sales.

Suit style — all your questions answered


When it comes to suits, men have to be extremely particular. There’s a lot to take into account in the lead up to a formal event, where you want to look sharp and stylish with minimal effort. A suit is the ultimate, most understated, yet notably smart attire a man can opt for but choosing the right one can be difficult and there’s a few important considerations to make when you are shopping for that all important wardrobe addition. Join CT Shirts and remove the stress from the suit-buying equation with these answers to some of the most common questions.

How do I pick the right colour suit?

The kind of event that you’ll be wearing the suit at can playquite an important role in helping you to decide which colour is right for your purposes. Whether it’s for an extra special date night, a new office essential or a wedding, taking some time to determine the shade you choose can ensure that your suit looks the part. For first time suit buyers, grey is always a popular choice as it looks modern yet extremely smart and refined in light, dark and charcoal shades. Navy suits can often look slightly bolder, and it has the power to really elevate the other shades of your outfit, from the shirt to your tie and shoes. A navy suit would make an excellent choice for an anniversary dinner or a day at the races, stylish and suave at the same time. Blue hues are also complementary to near enough every man, so if you are less satisfied with your existing collection of grey and black suits, then it could be time to add a navy, midnight blue or perhaps ink blue suit to your wardrobe. Meanwhile, black suits are a sure-fire way to look sharp at any formal event, from weddings to work conferences; you really can’t go wrong with this one.

Can suits be resized?

It’s a rarity to be lucky enough to find a perfectly fitting suit straight from the rail, and for this reason some people choose to buy tailor-made garments, but many men require some alterations on their suit for it to be well fitting. The options when it comes to resizing garments vary, but typically only minor adjustments will be necessary. Suit jackets can only be made shorter, but it is a difficult alternation to make as the spacing between the button holes and pockets will remain the same regardless — and if this balance is not even, then the entire jacket can be compromised. If you are looking to shorten your jacket by anything less than an inch, then making this adjustment should be fine.

Suit sleeves are one of the most commonly altered aspects of the garment, and when deciding how much length to take off you should remember to allow for half to three-quarters of your shirt cuff to show. If you want to lengthen the sleeves, then this will depend on how much material is at the top of the sleeve or under the cuff. Keep in mind that sleeves can also be slimmed, and this alteration can totally change how the suit looks — but make sure you still have enough room to move freely and comfortably! The chest and stomach can be let in and taken out, with a limit on the latter, and usually it only takes a few centimetres to make a big difference. When buying a suit, if you notice that the lapels aren’t lying flat then this isn’t something that can be fixed by an alteration. One of the riskiest alterations to make is anything which affects the shoulders and collar, as making changes here can jeopardise the entire suit jacket.

When to dry clean your business suit

Many men will be unsure on exactly when to take their favourite suit to the dry cleaners, but there are some things to look out for if you think it could be time to refresh your garment ready for the next event in your social calendar. Over washing garments such as suits can decrease their life span significantly, so if the marks or odours that you’re targeting aren’t coming off with a brush, airing out or spot clean then it could be time to pack your suit up and head to the dry cleaners. Maintain the natural fibres in your suit by avoiding too many unnecessary trips to the dry cleaner and get the most out of your suit.

How can I keep my white shirts looking pristine?

Shirts shouldn’t be downplayed as an aspect of a suit. They can complete the entire look and an ever-popular choice is the classic white shirt. But these come with their own set of challenges to keep them looking as fresh as they did on that first outing. Pulling out your good white shirt and noticing that it has been tinged grey is frustrating, and it tends to happen as a result of dirt in the machine, or simply by not using enough detergent in each cycle. Avoid having to endure the realisation on the morning of a big work function that your white shirt has been tarnished, by simply being careful when it comes to washing them. Sorting laundry is often a priority for many of us but take extra care with your bright whites. Being mindful about how much you are filling the machine up with can also be helpful, as you can avoid tangling and the dispersal of dirt directly onto your clothes. Adhere to the recommended amount of product too, and you should maintain the pristine white bases to your favourite suits.

Choose the right suit and it will certainly serve you well, with a bit of help from some of these tips on suit style and care!

What does the future of tailoring look like?

These days, a man’s wardrobe is incomplete without a three-piece suit. It is said that the suit that we all know and love today started in the early 1800s by a gentleman called Beau Brummell. He replaced long-tailed coats and silk stockings with the classic suit jacket accompanied by full-length trousers and it all went from there. But as we’re faced with new challenges (such as the lengthy daily commute) and as we strive to cut out time consuming activities (ironing a suit can be draining), what does the future look like for our tailoring? 

Advancements we’ve seen so far

One innovation that has been rolled out across many clothing manufacturers is temperature adjusting materials. In many cases, this works by controlling the body heat of the wearer. Researchers across the US developed clothing that changes how much radiation escapes from the shirt and how easily air can circulate around the body. Although heat controlling technology in clothing is not new, it is only in recent years that it has made its way into wearable clothing when it was once reserved for those in space. This sort of technology not only improves comfort levels for the wearer but can potentially have knock on positive effects on the environment. Air conditioning (AC) accounts for an outstanding 13% of energy used in the US. If our shirts become temperature regulated, then it is possible we will be in lower need of constant AC — reducing our carbon footprint so we all benefit!

Another development in material technology is non-iron fabrics. Enjoy an extra 10 minutes in bed as you pull your work shirt out of the dryer and put it on straight away — wrinkle free and no need to haul out the ironing board. The technology behind the non-iron shirt includes a process that strengthens the fabric, preventing the molecules from moving as much and increasing its resistance to creasing.

It’s important that a suit gives us the flexibility to move freely. Especially when you’re sitting in the same place for a prolonged period of time, such as at the desk, on your way to work or at a fancy dinner. This is where the latest mechanical stretch technology comes in to play. This sort of technology works with the materials of the suit to improve its flexibility. Some suit jackets and shirts achieve this stretch through incorporating a small percentage of elastane in the fabric and this is enough to enhance the comfort of the garment.

Advancements we can expect

An increasing amount of funding is being spent on researching and developing wearable payment gadgets. Of course, we already have the ability to pay contactless with a smart watch or phone but that’s just not enough! MasterCard paired with fashion designer Adam Selman to explore the idea of inserting a microchip into clothing, perhaps in the sleeve of a jacket or into a bag — allowing you to pay for items with even less effort. This concept could have some effect on our tailoring trends as cuff links and pockets could become payment devices!   

We could potentially be closing the door to buying a garment we like in different colours. The research behind it is ever advancing and there are a few ongoing projects developing the idea. One of the projects, explored by scientists at the University of Michigan, is looking at incorporating tiny crystals that react differently depending on the wavelength of light. This affects the crystal’s formation and how they look in terms of colour to others. Other research, carried out in Montreal, is investigating how electricity from human movement can power electric fabric and change its colour. At the moment, the research is a long way off from our high streets, but it is paving the way for colour-changing materials in the future.

Purchasing a three-piece suit can be costly. It is then unsettling when a sleeve is caught on a door handle or on something sharp and the material is damaged. The latest technology in textiles is addressing this issue through the development of self-healing fabric. It works by coating regular fabric in a special solution that, when ripped, is able to melt back together at low temperatures. Other research has founded that E. coli bacteria has self-replicating properties, and this is being explored in order to discover if it can be used to knit broken fabric back together.   

It’s no secret that our wardrobes have advanced over time. Many developments are being made in order to make our lives easier and further enhance our suits to meet our highly digital and busy lifestyles.
