It seems there are so many threads about wardrobes and buying clothing in different price ranges along with wanting to look good. One thing I think helps is presentation of yourself.
Of course having clean clothes is a must but I have found adding something simple like ironing your clothing before wearing it gives you that extra polished look. Even a cheap old T shirt looks better when this way. Add conditioning and polishing shoes along with getting the heels repaired when needed. My daughter has some beautiful Frye boots, hubby polishes them every 2-3 months for her and they look like new. As they age they look better bug are still well conditioned with beautiful leather versus scuffs and damage. She also gets the heels redone once a year at a local shoe repair place which only costs $25.00 a pair. If one inspects their shoes you can see how the heels can wear down and become uneven. While one can own nice items they may require some maintnance to keep them looking good.
We have all seen people dressed up in expensive clothing only to add a sad looking handbag and pair of shoes that can ruin the look. I do a handbag spa on my bags at least once a month to clean and condition them. None of my friends do this and think it is a waste of time but just a few minutes of care and bring a item back to looking like new. And I do believe it is the little details that can pull a whole outfit together.
Just like personal appearance. Being well groomed and put together can be as simple as clear polish on hands and toes along with a few drops of hair oil to add some gloss to your hair. I have friends who never pamper themselves because they say it takes too long but will spend hours on their phones. Some even feel removing makeup at night before bed is a waste of time since they will wash their face in the morning. So to me it is not all all about wardrobe but having everything come together to make one lol and feel good.
