Don't let the credit crunch cramp your style

It is easy to get caught up in all the feelings of doom and gloom with twenty four hour news coverage reporting on all the woes of the world's finances. Whilst most people will be watching their spending a bit more carefully, now is not a time to let it all go when it comes to style. Fashion costs money, style does not. There is no need to wear the latest style of designer clothes. As long as you clothes fit you well and suit your shape and colouring, you can look and feel great.

All you need to do is go through your wardrobe and identify all the clothes that really suit you and make you feel good. Clothes that do not fit properly or don't make you feel one hundred percent can be either swapped at a swishing party or sold online at eBay or another similar site. Once you have some lovely well fitting basics, you can update your wardrobe with a few new accessories each season for a fresh look.
