Most of people on the world think that you need to pay lots of many to look good.
Having a good look, but at what cost? Looking good is important and you can find anything
in every budget.
My first reason for this opinion is fitting clothes are important for meeting your look. If you don't pay attention to the length and breadth of your body, you will look untidy. It is better to adjust your body structure with clothes.
In other words you can wear nice clothes but which suit you.
Another reason i don't think that you need to buy expensive clothes to look good.
There are lots of assortment in these days. And diffrent price, but we mainly focus on low price type of clothes So i'm sure there is a lot of it.
I think it's worth also to wait for some sales or something like that. Maybe some more expensive clothes can be in atractive price. For instance Black Friday in October.
Some people may not agree with my opinion because they save money half of a year or maybe more and can buy good quality clothes but more expensive wear.
To summary opinion, i think it's ok to buy expensive clothes if your salary is able to get through the month. You can get some advice from a friend or even go shoping with him to choose the right one.

Prestigious brand often produce expensive and specific clothes. I agree that some of them are pretty and curious but most are just exaggerated and it is makes them so ugly. I think the only reason why people buy these clothes is because their prices are very high and they want to show their richness by wearing stuff like that.
I also often hear bad opinion about secondhands. It is said that they are for the disadvantaged what is obviously not true. I sometimes go to these stores and I see a lot of people however you can find there really fancy and stylish clothes in well price.
If you don’t want to buy used clothes you can go to the mall and just do your shopping at normal chain stores.It is not necessary to have millions with you to buy good-looking outfits, besides these places often have high promotions especially when one season is over.
All things considered the way how you look doesn’t have to depend on how much money you have. Let me assure you that some people with mean wages has better style than the affluent.

In my opinion, you don't have to spend a fortune on different kinds of clothes to look good, fashionable. We often spend all our savings on expensive and branded clothes instead of spending it on something more important.
My first reason why it's not worth spending a lot of money to look good is that we often don't pay for clothes with expensive materials but for the label itself. Often people don't realize that the clothes we buy dearly are often no different than the cheap ones. It is not difficult to find in clothing chains, among others, sweatshirts or t-shirts made of the same materials as in the stores of expensive brands. I myself once bought an expensive T-shirt, which I later saw identical, but much cheaper in one of the chain stores.
Another reason why you should not buy expensive clothing is that new, branded clothing is often only fashionable for one season. Trends change all the time, which means you would have to spend a huge amount of money to keep up with fashion.
Some people may disagree with me and think that it is better to save money all year round, because only buying expensive clothes can make you look good or make them last longer. I do not agree with their opinion, because as I said earlier it is not worth it, most of these clothes are made of the same materials and the brand does not change whether they are more or less durable.
In conclusion, everyone has the right to wear whatever they want, but I personally recommend spending less so you can save up for something more worthwhile.

Most people think that to look good you need to buy designer product. Nothing could be further from the truth! I believe that you can spend truly little, and still look great.
My first argument for this opinion is that there are a lot of cheap stores where you can find nice clothing pieces. For example, in secondhand stores, you can discover lovely vintage clothes that cost next to nothing.
Another point I would like to make is that the rules of good style are universal, and they are not related to a price tag. For instance, buy clothes that fit you, add accessories (but remember not to overaccesorize) and do not mix patterns. By applying those rules to your style, you can make cheap clothing look more elevated.
My last point I find the most important one. What matters the most, instead of the price of your clothes, is the way you wear them. You must “sell your look.” What that means, is wear your clothes with confidence. If you properly “sell” what you are wearing, not only the price, but also the way how the clothes look will matter less.
To sum up, clothing is the way to express ourselves. As far as I am concerned money does not play a big role in the way we want to present ourselves. Therefore, you should not worry yourself with your clothes looking cheap.

In my opinion, you don't have to spend unknown amount of money on clothes to look good. Having a small budget doesn't mean we have to look bad, it all depends on the right opportunity. In second-hand stores you can find really nice clothes in good quality at low prices. There are also other alternatives such as vinted. Vinted is something like second-hand but in online edition. Obviously not everyone want to wear used clothes so another solution may be various chain store sales or clothes at bargain prices. Each of us has our own style and shopping in their favourite stores but I think we overpay a lot because same t-shirt as today costs for example 15 pounds tomorrow will cost 10.
However, we live in a rush so we basically do everything at the last minute. That's why we quickly rush into the shopping mall and buy what we just need Another option is also to restore old clothes so we can prevent mass consumption a bit. Of course, everyone will decide for themselves where to buy clothes and for how much, but in my opinion vinted or second-hands are a nice option.

First of all, if you want to be well-dressed, you need to choose your clothes wisely so that you feel comfortable. What is fashionable will not always be a good choice for you. What matters is how you feel in your clothes. Not every expensive piece of clothing will make you look favourable. Always choose what you like.
Besides, expensive often does not mean better quality. Sometimes clothes from a chain store look better for a longer time than those from an expensive boutique. In addition to the quality, the look has to be mentioned. The most expensive brands often create quite specific and strange things. Of course, a lot of them are very fashionable, but you don't see people wearing them on the street, even those who can afford it.
In conclusion, I believe that you don't have to wear expensive clothes to look nice. You should wear what you feel like and what makes you feel confident. Price is not an indicator of quality and appearance.

First argument is that people tend to buy overpriced piece of clothing just because of the brand that it represents. Most of the time such occurrence isn't satisfactory to overall appearance of the person. I think that you should listen to yourself in terms of whether a shirt or a blouse fits you and if you feel splendidly wearing it.
Another argument is that there are branded clothes out there that are made out of a cheap material, therefore buyers are put into kind of false sense of security, that the more it costs the better it is, whereas most of the time that's not true. With options provided today we're able to find better and cheaper product that might satisfy us even more than the branded one would.
To sum it all up, I think there are expensive clothes that are definetly worth their price, but it is definetly more beneficial to look for cheaper products so you don't overpay.

My first reason for this opinion is that you can easily buy pretty clothes at a low price. You don’t need to buy fashionable clothes which cost a lot, you can shop, for example in second hand, buy used clothes from the Internet or shop on sales. I remember when I was in a second hand shop and I found a pretty dress, which was undemage and from a popular brand. I paid next to nothing for this dress.
Another reason I think to look good you don’t need to buy expensive clothes is that sometimes accessories, which cost little, improve outfit. Some hats, necklaces, rings, bags or glasses, could make your outfit better. For me jewelry is something I like, so I have a dozen rings, earrings and a necklace, and I also like to wear a cap in summer.
Some people do not agree and think that it is better to buy expensive clothes to look good. They prefer to buy them, because they have good quality and are trendy. But sometimes we paid for brand, not for quality, and trends pass quickly, but style remains.
To sum up, I think you don’t need to spend a lot of money for clothes to look good, you just need to go bargain hunting and take notice of accessories which you wear.

My first reason for this option is that we have a lot of thrifts stores where we can find some interesting clothes in good price. What is important probably no one else will have it so they are looks kinda original and unavailable. In second-hand shops we can sometimes find designer and pricey things too! Finding good quality and unique stuffs are even better than buying it in butiks or multiple stores.
Another reason that you shouldn’t buy over priced clothes is that they are often shoddy. Like big logo on it or strange, over-hyped look. Trends change all the time and you don’t have to pay for things that maybe month later will be out of fashion.
But in other way buying something expensive isn’t so bad for me. Like buying designers accessories and wearing it to most of your fits, it can be belt or shoes. Obviously so long as we can afford it. That kind of things last us longer because they are in good quality, they also looks more neatly. But it isn’t required. It’s just a option.
To sum up, i hope we don’t have to pay a fortune on stuffs are expensive especially when we don’t really have money on it. I think sometimes cheaper looks seem to be more expensive than much pricey one.
I believe that we should wear clothes that we like and don’t think it’s on top because that way trends are setting and this it’s real rules of good style.

People have always wanted to look good, better than others, but sometimes some clothes can cost more than a car. Not everyone has so much money and not everyone wants to spend so much on clothes, even sometimes, more expensive clothes look worse than the cheaper ones. In my opinion, you don't have to spend a fortune to look really nice.
The first reason is that there are a lot of stores, online or stationary, which have a lot of nice clothes for really low prices. You don't have to choose clothes from the best designers, you just have to go to a store or turn on the internet.
The second reason is that you have to choose what clothes you feel best in and which ones you like the most. Every piece of clothes match with different things so you have to choose how you want to walk. Then you choose the things that you think will fit. There are lots of stores that have lots of clothes at low prices so it is easy to find the right things.
Some people say that to look good you have to have good clothes. Nevertheless, expensive clothes do not guarantee that you will look good. Sometimes clothes for a big price look disgusting, so you have to choose carefully.
In the end, it is up to you how and at what price you choose to dress. Some people prefer more expensive clothes, others prefer cheaper, but you don't have to spend a fortune to look nice. It is important to feel good in what you wear.

I think that’s definitely not true. You can buy awesome well-priced clothes in second-hand shops. These types of shops are almost in every town or city and they have really low prices. We can literally buy a few items for the price of one item from store in a mall.
Most of these things were used by people, but they are often in in very good condition, sometimes you can even find absolutely brand new things. These kind of shops have almost everything (formal, casual, athletic, summer or warm clothes, shoes, bags and so on). That’s why we can find fashionable, vintage and new clothes for every occasion.
Unfortunately, these shops have some negatives. For example you have to spend a lot of time looking for your size and it’s not easy at all, so you have to be patient person. The second thing is that it’s unlikely to find very good quality (like linen, real leather or silk) or new things with labels. Of course it’s not impossible but really hard.
Still, in my opinion buying clothes and other stuffs (except for buying used shoes, because it’s not hygienic for me even if it was sterilized before) are very ecological and good for our planet, because we don’t waste water, energy and another materials for new clothes. Moreover we can find really nice occasions and cool clothes for us in these places, so we can save our money for something else.I believe it’s really important, especially for teenagers and young people.

Everyone is wondering if it’s necessary to buy expensive clothes to look good. You don’t have to spend a fortune on clothes to look great or show everyone how cool you look.
My first reason for this opinion is that you can easily buy cheap clothes. You can buy them in second hand for pennies on the dollar. In this place you can find original, inimitable and vintage clothes. You can also buy cheap clothes on the internet from other people.
Another reason is that you can buy some accessories for a little money like rings, necklaces, earrings, hats or bags. If you add an interesting accessory your outfit will look so much creativ.
Some people do not agree and feel that you must buy expensive clothes to look good. They just want to show the brand and how rich they are. They think if they wear a brand clothes they look better which is not true.
To sum up, I think you don’t have to spend a lot of money on clothes to look good. You just need to have an idea, be creative and look at small things to add.\

My first reason for this opinion is that a lot of clothes look the same, but are much more expensive only because of a logo. If you visit a different shop’s website you can find out that the same piece of clothing costs more compared to other only because of a brand. For example, ordinary, white shirt can cost you 20zł or 200zł, while looking exactly the same only because of a logo on the tag.
Another reason is that you don’t have to go to the most expensive boutiques. What I mean is that you can be cleaver and just go to the cheap shops, go bargain hunting or, if you have a good eye, you can find something in secondhand. For example, when I was looking for new pants I searched online and found jeans that I liked for 120zł. A few days later I got a similar looking pair in a second hand for just 5zł.
My final point is that can save money, by buying basic clothes, but styling them in an original way. In other words you can buy one thing but use it on different occasions and outfits. For instance the way you style a white T-shirt with accessories and other clothes it either look formal or casual . It only depends on your creativity.
To sum up you don’t need a lot of money to look great. In my opinion, in order to look good you have to find your own style and be the best version of yourself.

Trends change like a kaleidoscope. We won't have time to get used to some of them yet, and new ones are already appearing. If we wanted to have all the trend stuff, we'd have to break the bank. So let's be reasonable when it comes to fashion and buying.
The most important thing is not to go crazy and choose clothes so that they harmonize with our style, character and personality. The good solution is to invest in classic clothes which are timeless and will always be fashionable.
You can also exchange clothes with friends. In this way, you will not spend a penny on clothes, and you will gain new elements for fashionable stylizations.
Every store and every more or less known brand holds big sales at least twice a year. This is the perfect opportunity to get great stuff in trend without spending a fortune. You can save 30-50 %.
In my opinion the outlet is a great place to buy designer clothes. Fashionable and cheap clothes are also hidden in second-hand stores. There are places where you can hunt a Chanel shirt or a Dior dress for few zlotys. Today's second-hand shops are, in most cases, real boutiques with the most fashionable clothes.
Do you want to be fashionable but you don't want to spend too much money? Choose less known online stores, which are increasingly replacing stationary storecan compose interesting and fashionable.
