What I've Learned From My Past Shopping Experiences
3:19 PM
Greetings. My Little Astrological Creatures!
I've wasted a lot of money on clothes that weren't made for me. Let's dedicate this to my poor judgment and laziness when it comes to shopping. I realized that I wanted to start shopping with a squeaky clean mind. Today, I'll talk about the lessons that I've learned using my experiences from the past. Let's get started shall we?
1) Focus
Tips and Lessons
1) Go on a day where you have nothing or little to do.
2) Take your time to find what you want.
3) Eliminate as many distractions as possibles.
2) Try On ALMOST Everything
I know that I'm not the only one who came home with a piece of clothing that you thought would fit well. News flash: It didn't fit as well as you thought it would. This was a big issue for me when it comes to jeans and some tops. For me, jeans fit odd so I'm going to have to try on every single pair that I lay my eyes on (except for Forever21 and H&M).
Tips and Lessons
1) If you can't try a shirt on, then make sure it's stretchable. The stretch can save your life and mine.
3) Just Ask
I would never ask the employees for anything. I wasn't into talking to strangers and my voice would come out in a whisper if I try to ask. Now, I feel like I can ask them anything because I know that it's better to speak up. This way, I would know what's available or on sale.
4) It's Okay To Leave Empty Handed
My sister would always buy more stuff than me and I never found anything I want. Even through we went to almost every store in the mall that day. This prompt me to buy anything to make myself feel better. A) This is one way to waste of money and B) The item wouldn't end up looking good on me.
Tips and Lessons
1) Don't compare your purchases with others.
2) Don't waste money on just anything.
5) Ask Yourself If It's Worth It
Clothing prices are rising now-a-days so it's best to ask yourself some questions. Is this item worthy of my money? Do I really like it? Does this item has the potential of becoming my go to? Is this my ride or die item for the next few years of my life? These questions helped me so I hope that it'll help you too.
Tips and Lessons
1) Best time to question an item is when you're trying it on.
2) Question the pricing and the quality as well.
