How To Shop Your Wardrobe

3. Crafty Adornment

One of the easiest ways to enhance and update an item of clothing is by changing the buttons.

On most fast-fashion garments, buttons are plain and functional adding very little in the style stakes. Why not replace plain (cheap-looking) buttons with larger, more designer-inspired buttons? Think metallic, a contrasting colour, vintage or something sparkly. Not only will you be adding a fresh touch – you’ll be wearing something totally unique.

If high-end designer if your thing, you can actually buy genuine designer buttons (such as those iconic “CC” Chanel lovelies) off sites such as Etsy. Otherwise a trip to Lincraft (or hit up eBay) will provide more than enough for you to choose from.
