What every SB needs: a good wardrobe..How To do it on the cheap.

Starting out in the sugar world it is important to have a good basic wardrobe so you can dress for any occasion.  A handful of designer items is essential.. I have always focused on accessories as a few designer accessories like Prada, Chanel, etc. can go along way in dressing up an outfit.

Second hand designer shops and consignment shops are an excellent resource for this.  Today many of the high end designer consignment shops are online.  I am posting some of my favorites.

Love these shoes and yes ladies you will see when you go to that website they are sold..he he he guess who bought them?  The key is to be selective choosing items that are timeless and can be interchanged with other pieces.  I often find items that have not been worn and even still have the tags on them at a fraction of the price.  You need to know your size, and I have even found items that are current in the stores and have actually tried that outfit on first then went back home and logged in online an purchased it..he he he.. of course being frugal is not for everyone but not all SD's are shopping men or gift daddies but still want us to fit into their world.  I have found this is what works for me but I also purchased every day clothing items as well and today have an amazing wardrobe.
