The post was posted at the request of LiteOut, all thanks and hot tears of gratitude are only to her))

Popular blogger Arina Kholina believes that clothes from famous brands are unreasonably expensive, but are not of high quality and beautiful. And he tells you where to find stylish and inexpensive things.

Oh my God, how I want Vetements jeans! They cost a damn thousand euros, and that's a hell of a lot, and it's just unrealistically a lot for me. But, you see, when I put them on, they, of course, will be no different from the same jeans from any flea market for ten. But I will know, and everyone will know, that I am not wearing ordinary pants, to which mortals who wear Zara are doomed, but in pants that elevate me above Moscow City. Pants that make me a man in thousand-euro pants, and that shine like a halo only on my butt when I walk the streets!

You will say that even if I make six hundred circles around the center, only about twenty people will recognize this flaw as the product of the most sensational brand of the 2015/2016 season? And only ten of them will know how much they cost? Yes, but it's worth it.

Expensive clothes are a consumer deception

I am sure that everyone who buys clothes that cost... now I’ll say for sure... 12 times more expensive than their normal cost thinks so.

A friend bought a Dior dress (170 thousand rubles). Cute dress. But I see that the fabric is inexpensive, the cut is, of course, decent (who has a bad cut these days?), and the style is quite ordinary. And she herself tells me: “If you want the same fabric, I’ll tell you where to get it. It will cost, well, seven thousand. And sewing about five thousand.”

Of course, I really wanted to ask: “Well, why the hell did you pay 170 thousand for it?!” But, you know, that would be a reproach. Because both I and she - we both know that she paid for this exalting feeling of happiness that superiority over other people gives you, belonging to something elite, although no one knows what exactly, but that’s the trick. For an injection of luxury, which is not really luxury, but we take the marketers at their word.

Modern high fashion is just marketing. Are all the critics excited about Vetements? Do they praise this style of the post-Soviet 90s, this aesthetics of the outskirts and our funny memories of clothing markets? Right away, without any preludes - we charge prices, like Yohji Yamamoto. T-shirt with the DHL logo (German express delivery service) - 250 euros. Windbreaker - 3000 euros. Jeans - 1000.

Old names bought up by large corporations, apart from history and reputation, have nothing to do with high fashion: mass-produced fabrics, sewing in China (or in Italy in factories bought by the Chinese) - this means the Made in Italy so desired by many, separate collections for outlets. It's Zara, but for the rich.

Of course, there are fashion houses that make quality things: at least Hermes, or some not so well-known but very cool brands, but they are in the minority. Rich people with “old money” don’t buy such things. They either sew to order, or from time to time buy clothes in very small boutiques, which, however, sew and knit clothes by hand, produce small editions, and, surprise, it often costs less than the same very popular Vetements (or Dior, or Chanel, Lanvin and so on).

Inexpensive clothing - affordable, high quality and stylish

But no matter what the situation is in the world of aristocrats and millionaires, we mortals in Uniqlo pants are left with the blessed mass market.

Russia is not yet a very buyer-friendly environment. On the one hand, a lot of things have appeared, and now, in 2016, the choice here is no worse than in Europe. Back in 2014, I didn’t understand at all where in Moscow people buy clothes - everything seemed too expensive, boring and even embarrassing in places. But now, however, everything has changed.

Although we don’t have wonderful high street fashion - that is, fashion “from the main streets”. From places like Friedrichstrasse in Berlin, Paseo de Gracia in Barcelona and others.

In Moscow, the main places for shopping are malls. And this is bad, first of all, because it is much more pleasant to walk along the streets of the city, stop in a cafe, take a break for wine in bars. Everything in the malls is too utilitarian; mainly chain brands are represented.

Therefore, personally, my Moscow shopping experience is, although a pleasant, but complex story. But if you want to dress especially and stylishly, you can push yourself a little, just a little.

How and where to dress stylishly and inexpensively

Russian stamps

Everyone talks only about Russian designers, and rightly so. Now they make very interesting things, high-quality, beautiful. There is one “but” - they should not be bought in stores. In the store the price triples or more.

You need to find the brand on the Internet, come to his workshop or showroom. It's both nice and much cheaper. The designer will tell you when there will be a sale - and during this period you can pick up clothes that are 30% or 50% cheaper.

Vintage shops

Hurray, there are a lot of them now. And it became much cheaper there. Yes, for some reason many people disdain the clothes that someone wore. I can say one thing - you need to work on yourself. Vintage, which can be safely called second-hand, is a style. Which is now copied by all high fashion houses - from Yves Saint Laurent to Marc Jacobs. I personally even had a fit of rage when I saw the latest Laurent collection from Hedi Slimane - it was my entire closet with crazy dresses from the 80s.

I was angry because my dresses cost from 20 to 40 euros, and Slimane's dresses - well... it's bitter to say about it. All of these dresses are dry cleaned so rigorously that you could wear them into the operating room. Well, if you look from a different angle, it’s even interesting to imagine what kind of woman or women wore them, for what occasion they bought them, and maybe it was a dress for a special date, or it was bought on a trip somewhere in Madrid.. Romance, in general.

I love the cute place “Cooperative Shining” on Kitay-Gorod - there are very nice girls there who also sell jewelry from Russian jewelers. On the same floor there is another vintage store, not bad, but the prices are a little higher, and the girls there are kind of arrogant. Which, however, does not make the choice worse. They are very easy to Google under the “vintage shops” tag - and then it’s a question of price, location and personal choice. I can recommend Vintage Bags for a stunning, almost museum-quality product.

Shops hidden in unusual places

At the Flacon art factory, on Artplay. You can find a lot of interesting things there - from a wonderful selection of Fjallraven Kanken backpacks to not very expensive Danish designers.

That is, rather not an atelier - but private dressmakers. There are, you know, those vile ones who look you in the eye, like Jehovah's Witnesses, and assure you that you have to pay one and a half thousand rubles for hemming your dress. Squeal and run away! Look for normal dressmakers whose tailoring will cost no more than 5 thousand (at old prices from 2500 to 3500, but the world is changing rapidly).

A dress will cost about six thousand on average - and this will be your ideal model for your figure. It's not at all as difficult as it seems.

Hand made wardrobe is very cool. One millionaire I knew accidentally ended up in Berlin with a tailor - and now he no longer pleases expensive stores with his bank card. Things “made to measure” are captivating and addictive. The relationship with clothes is completely different.

Flea markets

Now there are a lot of them. The most excellent one is the one in the Museum of Moscow (you need to look at the schedule on the museum’s website). Everything is there at once. There are not very many clothes, but then you need to ask those who sell them where the main base is.

The life hack is not to believe everyone. A certain impudent person at a flea market in Sokolniki (who also reluctantly broke away from a conversation with her friend for my sake) said that earrings made of “real plastic from the 60s” cost 1,500 rubles.

Flea market at the Museum of Moscow

Just in case - yes, it's true, plastic used to be better. Vintage Ray-Ban glasses and others are very much appreciated - they do not dry out or turn white. But the fact is that a centimeter of plastic in each ear costs about 5 euros. That even at the modern exchange rate is, well, three hundred rubles. In general, if you don’t like the price, leave immediately.

And of course, the famous Moscow Lambada Market

It turned out that only we have such a phenomenon. This did not catch on either in St. Petersburg or in other cities - although there were attempts. But our Lambada is happiness. And Russian designers, and vintage ruins, and some charms and cool things brought from Europe, and all sorts of niche perfumes, soaps, cups... A lot of jewelry - both vintage and modern.

Life hack - come (or return) on the last day around seven in the evening: before closing, people get excited and give it away with significant discounts.

Lambada-Market

What to say? Gods. I'm really looking forward to the amazing collection from Christophe Lemaire that's coming out soon.

Our fashion columnist will tell you how to dress beautifully and on a budget in his new article.

Oh, how I want to dress beautifully, tastefully and... on a budget! And, most importantly, look expensive! “Is this possible?!”, many ask.

I answer: it’s possible! And I’m talking about how to find, buy and put together inexpensive, but bright, stylish sets. With examples!

Stage one. Emptying the bins

Before any, small or global, shopping trip, I recommend doing a wardrobe analysis. I am sure that you will find forgotten, but still very good things, completed in a suitable image, which only needs some catchy detail to make it effective. This detail can be an accessory, or a blouse with an unusual pattern, or a bright scarf. It is important that when you go to the store you buy only this necessary addition, which will give your old clothes a new “sound”. This analysis will save you money!

And at the audit stage, you will be able to determine whether you have a “base”, those very mandatory things that are the “foundation” of a rational wardrobe:

Sheath dress;

White blouse-shirt;

Classic cut coat;

Dark blue jeans;

The skirt is a suitable style, simple design, no details;

Classic pumps;

Classic boots;

Structured I am a good quality bag.

An example of a wardrobe “base”


Having a good quality “base”, you can simply buy interesting accessories for it and create spectacular sets. It's also the basis for a cost-effective approach to building your wardrobe.

Stage two. We study places.

For budget shopping, you need to know the secret places and stores where you can dress “cheap and cheerful”:

1. Second-hand and consignment stores. Someone might wince now, but the idea is quite worthy. Clothes in thrift stores are often beautiful, mostly foreign, clean and without any major defects. It is quite possible to put together an interesting ensemble for little money. Don't rule out this possibility, find the second-hand stores closest to your home and go scouting.

2. Sales. A great opportunity to purchase items from the past seasons at half the cost or even less. Sales take place in all shopping centers and stores and there are: regular Christmas and summer sales, as well as seasonal sales, “last size” sales, sales on the occasion of a store’s birthday or a national holiday, etc. You can find information about where and when each sale starts on a special website.

3. Discount stores. This is a collection of things from collections of past, pose-past, pose-pose-past years, which for some reason were not sold. Almost all stores have their own discount centers. Both in Russia and abroad. So, if you are not chasing fashion or want to put together a basic wardrobe, try discounts for yourself.

4.Dress crossings or garage sales. A recently emerged trend is the exchange of boring things. An enterprising person or group of people organizes a room (a large hall, a hangar, a garage) and invites everyone to bring there clothes, shoes, and jewelry that are irrelevant to them for sale at a minimum price or exchange. A very interesting and productive event. Its advantages:

    you will put on your jacket or skirt, which you haven’t worn for several years, but it’s a pity to throw it away;

    you will find something unusual, spectacular and, possibly, free;

    you will communicate and meet new people.

And, by the way, at such events they often treat you to something tasty or conduct an interesting master class.

5. Budget stores.

There are different stores:

    luxury, branded, very expensive;

    boutiques and designer shops. Their prices range from high to reasonable;

    Network shops. I recommend stopping at chain stores, because in them you will always find new things and at affordable prices.

Adding "raisins"

Any item, even bought in an expensive store, will not make the right impression if it is not correctly “attached” in the set.

Do you want to look spectacular? Follow this simple combination rule:

Combine one or more simple items with one or more items with a twist.

Simple things are neutral in color (gray, white, black, beige) without original details and finishes, simple in design, not attracting attention.

Things with a twist attract attention with color, design, unusualness, etc. These are the things that are accents in the set.

By combining simple things and things with a twist, you can create budget sets that will look stylish and “expensive.”

There are several optimal combinations:

Simple clothes+simple accessory+accessory with a twist;

Simple dress+classic pumps+spectacular stole

The cost of the set is 1888 rubles.

Clothes with a twist + simple accessories;

It takes effort to look beautiful every day. The effort will be fully worth it if you become more confident and happy. If you want to look great every day, then you should review your wardrobe and buy classic outfits. To look beautiful, you also need to learn how to combine various accessories, as well as combine clothes. It will take some time, but in the end you will look stylish and beautiful.

Steps

Updating your wardrobe

    Buy classic outfits that never go out of style if you want to dress beautifully. Classic is clothing that does not look eccentric and does not become outdated. Such clothes are always elegant and simple. Classics include, for example, a navy blazer or a black V-neck shirt. These may seem like very simple pieces, but they can always be dressed up with accessories.

    • Classic items are easy to combine, so you can always look different with their help.
  1. Buy a few colorful pieces to mix and match with the classics. This could be clothes in bright colors or unusual styles that you don't usually wear.

    • For example, you can wear a white blouse with a dark blue skirt and add a patterned sweater to the outfit.
  2. Buy clothes that can be combined with each other. When looking through your wardrobe, make sure that each individual item can be combined with at least two others. Mixing and matching is an important part of your daily wardrobe.

    • Most likely, you will not be able to buy clothes for every day of the week. However, you can buy clothing items that you can combine with what you already have. This way you can create a completely new outfit every day.
  3. When choosing clothes, be guided by the characteristics of your figure. Some necklines look different on different body types. Look for clothes that look best on you. We all have our own idea of ​​what suits us, but take the time to try on different styles. For example:

    Get rid of old or torn clothes. Clothes wear out, especially if you wear the same thing over and over again. Worn-out clothes can't look stylish unless you specifically choose an outfit for some occasions that involve wearing faded clothes and ripped jeans.

    • If there is a stain on your shirt, try to get it out, otherwise throw it away. Clothes with stains look sloppy.
  4. When purchasing clothes, choose a color that matches your skin tone. Of course, you shouldn't buy clothes in colors you don't like. Dressing stylishly means feeling confident and comfortable. If the color matches your skin tone but you don't love it, don't buy it. Here are some basic principles:

    • Very fair skin: cool tones, pale pink, shades of gray, blue, dark blue and grassy.
    • Medium-light skin tone: pastel, cool red and blue tones. Avoid orange.
    • Medium-dark skin tone: metallic shades, plum, wine red, bright blue and deep purple.
    • Dark skin: Rich colors such as dark green, blue, pale yellow and warm red.
    • Dark skin: Bright colors such as burgundy, cobalt blue, bright orange and red.

Selecting outfits

  1. Think about your outfits. The outfit you put on in the morning can be picked out in the evening. You can also plan what you will wear all week at the beginning of each week. If you choose an outfit in the morning, just before school, it will be very stressful. It takes time to look through your wardrobe and try on several options. So plan everything in advance.

    • You can try on the outfit and then take a photo of yourself in it. Then you can compare the photos and choose the best option in a relaxed atmosphere. If you don't have enough time to choose an outfit, then you should use this advice. You can scroll through the photos and choose the one that suits you.
  2. When choosing clothes, you also need to consider the event you will wear it to. For different occasions you need to choose a different outfit. For example, if you are going to school, then your outfit should not be revealing. If you're going to the beach with friends, wear a summer dress and shoes that you can walk on the sand in.

    • If you are not sure whether to wear a particular outfit for a child's baptism or for an interview, then do not hesitate to ask friends or family for advice.
  3. Choose clothes that make you feel confident. You should dress for yourself, not for others. It is very important to feel comfortable and cozy. By projecting confidence and enthusiasm, you will give your outfit that extra edge.

    • Remember - if someone only likes you when you're dressed up, then that person is not worthy of your attention. Dress the way you want.
  4. Don't combine different patterns. It is possible that some patterns will go well together, but it is better to stick to the principle that an outfit should only have one piece with a pattern.

    • For example, if you're wearing an argyle sweater, you might not want to pair it with a striped skirt.
  5. If you have difficulty combining clothes, then use rule of three. It will help you quickly create an elegant ensemble. The rule says that you can use three colors: two of them are the main ones (usually a shirt, skirt or trousers), and the third is the most important color.

    • Base colors can be subtle colors that go well together. For example, a dark blue shirt and a light brown skirt. The third color should be brighter. It will make your outfit stylish. For example, it could be a red thin belt or a silver lace scarf.
  6. Once a week, wear something extra fashionable and beautiful. Even if you look smart every day, you can be especially chic one day a week to feel more confident. Take the time to choose such a vibrant ensemble.

    Try not to wear the same outfit twice a week. This is not possible if you wear a school uniform or work uniform. If in one week you are invited to two different parties with different people, then you can wear your favorite stylish outfit to each of them.

    • The above in no way means that you should not wear the same piece of clothing twice in a week. If you have a skirt that goes well with different blouses, then you can safely wear it. Remember, mixing and matching is the key to mastering the world of endlessly dressy clothing.
  7. Consider an outfit for unforeseen circumstances. Perhaps one day you will find that you don’t want to wear anything you previously selected. That's when this outfit comes in handy. It should be simple, convenient and also easy to combine with various accessories. For example, this could be a nice pair of jeans, a tank top in your favorite color, and a cropped sweater. To such things you can add a scarf, beads and a pair of stylish shoes.

Accessories

    Choose stylish shoes. When choosing shoes, focus on their practicality. These could be classic black ballet flats, a nice pair of boots or wedges that you can wear with both skirts and dresses.

    • Try them on and make sure you feel comfortable wearing them, especially if you plan to pair them with more than one outfit.
  1. Shoes should suit the occasion. Just like when choosing clothes, make sure your shoes are appropriate for the occasion you'll be wearing them for.

    Take care of your shoes to keep them looking new longer. If your shoes are damaged or scuffed, try polishing them. Use special polishing agents. Shoes are an important part of the wardrobe, which is one of the first people pay attention to. If you don't know how to clean shoes, read some of the following articles:

  2. Try different jewelry. Accessories can give your outfit a completely different look. When you're planning an outfit, try to match it with jewelry that will highlight its beauty. Sometimes an outfit can go from classy to chic by adding a necklace or dangling earrings.

    • However, try not to overdo it. For example, if you're planning on wearing a statement necklace, opt for stud earrings to avoid appearing overly cluttered with jewelry.
  3. When putting on accessories, think about how appropriate they will look. Jewelry always attracts attention and should be chosen with care. For example, if you want to draw attention to your face, then wear large or dangling earrings. If you want to draw attention to the outfit, then wear a large necklace.

    • However, if you wear low-cut blouses, try to refrain from wearing large beads as it will draw too much attention to your chest.

For decades, fashion experts have been discussing the versatility of a woman's wardrobe. And more and more representatives of the fair sex are realizing the need to have things that can be combined with each other and used as different options for everyday and evening looks. Of course, there is no single recipe, because you have to develop your own style every day, looking for new, fresh ideas. But you can learn the art of selecting and combining clothes, just remember a number of fundamental principles.

The right clothes

Correctly and tastefully chosen clothes are the key to success for any lady. It is designed to hide all the imperfections of the figure and focus attention on its advantages. Every woman has her own individual body curves and don’t be upset if they don’t meet generally accepted standards.

  1. A long dress, plain or with an abstract print, is a bright trend of the summer season and an indispensable item that allows the figure to achieve the desired slimness. At the same time, maxi skirts with pleating, ruffles and frills should be avoided.
  2. The drapery effect is a super option when you need to hide extra centimeters in the waist and hips.
  3. Blouses, tops and dresses with a V-neck will add a little height and draw attention to your beautiful bust.
  4. For girls with a narrow waist and curvy hips, the advice to buy a flared skirt will come in handy. As for texture, it is better to opt for flowy fabrics that hide extra pounds in the lower part of the silhouette.
  5. Today, a combination of several bright, sometimes flashy shades is in fashion. However, stylists recommend that curvy women avoid combining several acid-colored items, because this technique creates the effect of “dividing” the figure into parts, which does not contribute to visual slimness. A smart choice would be a single-color dress or trousers that suit the length and style.
  6. If you're curvy, experts recommend avoiding tops and pants with floral prints. But a dress with a medium or small size pattern and a diagonal stripe looks very good.


How to combine correctly

The main misconception of most fashionistas is that in order to look expensive and stylish, you need to spend fabulous money on your wardrobe. Unfortunately, or fortunately, purchasing even a whole heap of branded items does not guarantee you a stylish look. The secret lies in the correct selection of a particular set of clothes that will suit a particular woman with all the features of her physique.

How to do this correctly without special education and a stylist?

Clothing with patterns is a rather capricious thing; combining it with something is not so easy. One slight mistake and instead of a bright, extravagant image you will get a tacky and funny look. Concentrate your attention only on the drawing; it is most successfully paired with accessories in neutral colors - black, white, beige. With a polka dot or floral blouse, it is better to wear straight-cut trousers, a classic pencil skirt, shorts or jeans. A combination of pattern and print is allowed; if you feel strong enough to find and choose a similar tandem, feel free to experiment. And remember, a horizontal stripe always makes you look fat, and a vertical stripe always makes you look longer.


With the help of the right cut, you can easily hide the flaws of your figure and highlight its advantages. The basic rule is to make what is large smaller and visually enlarge what is small. For wide trousers or a maxi skirt, choose a blouse with a defined waistline. And to voluminous things “on top” you can try adding a narrow pencil or tight capris. But it’s worth considering that even if you are the happy owner of ideal parameters, loose clothing will still add a few extra pounds to your silhouette.


Maintaining body proportions when choosing the length of an outfit is another indisputable rule. Do your legs seem not long enough? Then buy several pairs of skirts, shorts and trousers with a high waistline, this way you will visually “stretch out”. Add a cropped jacket or top to them. Women with long legs are allowed to wear jeans on their hips, but in any case, such a choice will steal a couple of centimeters of height from their figure.


If you are not looking for easy ways and want to learn how to combine items from different fabrics, then try combining things with the same texture. Of course, a thick winter parka in combination with light summer trousers will look extremely ridiculous. But insulated jeans made of rough material will go well with a sweater or cotton shirt, to which you can add a cardigan.


During the off-season, it is permissible to give preference to a silk dress or lace skirt, and wear a sweater made of coarse yarn on top. A very bold and stylish combination.

In rolled-up jeans that expose your ankles, your legs will visually “stretch out.” Look for shoes in neutral shades or ankle boots to go with them.

Not every fashionista dares to combine a romantic dress with sneakers. Stylists strongly recommend forgetting everything that we were taught in childhood, because this is the hottest trend.

The most important thing is to determine what exactly you consider stylish and how likely it is that you will unquestioningly follow fashion trends. For some, the convenience of clothing is more important, for others it is the coincidence of its boundaries with the dress code, while others will want to express their individuality as much as possible.

A significant part of girls dream of being beautiful rather than stylish, but these concepts are very close to each other. It is important to remember that it is worth moving in one direction, without being scattered on all the new products, because it is not far from absurd images.

How to dress stylishly? Surprisingly, a stylish wardrobe is, first of all, feminine things that highlight your silhouette and beauty, as well as those items of clothing that fit you perfectly.

The main criterion for creating a wardrobe may be your personal preferences, color tastes or occupation. Let's look at how to dress stylishly and inexpensively, having a base of things that, with the right addition, will change along with the direction.

    Short sleeve t-shirts. Neutral colors: gray, white, black beige. There should be no drawing. It is advisable to have at least two or three of them.

  • . Both a classic blue shade and a slightly darker one are suitable. Avoid abrasions, appliqués, stripes and other additional elements, because they change with the flow of fashion.
  • Pumps. The color spectrum should be classic: beige, black, gray, brown. Bright colors and lush design will automatically take such a pair of shoes out of your wardrobe.

How to look stylish in the autumn-winter period

Every lady wants to know how to dress stylishly in the fall, and even in the coldest period - winter. Modern compositions have become very diverse and unexpected. This means everyone will be able to find the ideal option for themselves.

    Classic. A calm and cool shade, maximum severity of style and confidence in your look.

  • Bright shades. Give free rein to your imagination - bright yellow, rich burgundy, fuchsia and delicate lilac. There is a place for each of them not only in summer, but also in winter.

An autumn jacket with a khaki print, a flared silhouette, mid-thigh length with a hood, is perfectly complemented by dark gray skinny jeans, a tote bag and black boots with low heels.

A light brown raincoat, straight cut, below the knee length, perfectly harmonizes with a white shirt, a red sweater, a gray-blue printed skirt, a straight silhouette, a small bag and light brown moccasins.

A thin gray coat, straight cut, knee length, looks good with a light blue sweater, a navy blue wrap skirt with a print, a small bag and high-heeled sandals.

  • Unexpected drawings. Colorful, and sometimes a little strange, patterned and geometric prints, sometimes reminiscent of an unfinished drawing, covered many jackets in this year's autumn-winter collections.
  • Knitten things. Any knit, be it thick, openwork or thin, is popular in all seasons, but thick things are difficult to wear in the hot season without causing surprise to others.

  • Sheep's wool. Charming “curls” have attracted the attention of many famous designers. They didn’t limit themselves to jackets and sheepskin coats; they also got the same effect from sweaters, etc.
