Got A Closet Full of Trendy Clothes? Watch Out!Written by Donna Monday
You just bought a pair of Ugg boots to go with your hip hugger jeans and trucker cap. And that’s not all. You scour fashion magazines for latest trends, then go running out to fill your closet. Trendy is good, right? Uh, not so fast. Keeping abreast of trends in fashion is essential to not looking outdated, but having a closet full of trendy clothes can quickly turn into a big waste of time and money, unless you’re Paris Hilton. Maybe Paris can afford to buy and discard clothes like candy, but average woman needs a wardrobe with some staying power. All fashion experts agree that you should build your wardrobe around classic pieces like: blazers, tailored suits, neutral bottoms and tops. Classic clothing lasts for years and is very versatile. On other hand, trends come and go. Those Ugg boots you just bought along with trucker caps are already passé (according to fashionistas in know). You can either give them away to Good Will or keep wearing them because you really like them.
