As young adults with limited resources and a desire to purchase almost everything we see, we’re always on the lookout for things that can elevate our looks without breaking our banks. So, here are five tips on how to look boujee while on a budget: 

1. Invest In Statement Pieces

Although splurging on anything and everything isn’t endorsed by most, I would highly encourage you to indulge in statement pieces that will not only last you a long time but also elevate any basic outfit. Be it a warm jacket like the one shown below, which easily uplifts the basic jean-jumper look or a pair statement colorful sneakers that promotes a basic all-black look to an elite one!

2. Accessorise Up! 

Jazz up your looks with sophisticated accessorizes and never worry about looking basic ever again! Again, invest in chic pieces of chains, earrings, neck pieces etc. and wear them with almost every outfit to give them an edgy look. Gold jewelry in particular is found in every high-street fashion store like your local Zara or H&M, and will never fail to promote your look!

3. Never Shy Away from Basics

 Boujee, budget and basics, never seen three words that complimented each other better! If you’re on a budget, definitely invest in basics that you can pair with almost anything and everything. Rotate a crisp white t-shirt with a denim skirt, leather shorts, under a blazer or over a turtle-neck! There are thousand ways of styling basics and they’re a dire necessity in putting together any boujee look!

4. Choose Your Colors Carefully

 They say colors can either make or break your look, and I couldn’t agree more. Wearing monotone and neutral colors definitely give off more elegant vibes and can be easily used to one’s advantage. Further, going for an all-black look is also a smart way of embodying a chic vibe and is an easy way of looking boujee on a budget!

5. Don’t Be Scared Of Thrifting 

Lastly, whether on a budget or not, never shy away from thrifting! It is an incredible way of finding hidden treasures at extremely affordable prices. While some people are scared of buying second-hand clothes, others are happy to consume clothing in an eco-friendly way. Most thrifting stores offer vintage treasures and when done correctly, often yield precious gems! Hence, thrifting is definitely one of the best ways to get hold of vintage treasures at affordable prices, which makes one look extremely boujee while still on a strict budget!
