'How just ONE pricey buy can turn a High Street bargain into the epitome of chic'
- You don't need to spend hundreds of pounds on your outfit to look the part
- One expensive item makes your whole ensemble look high-end
- Pick out the right pricey pieces and match them with care
You don’t need to spend hundreds of pounds on matching designer trousers, tops, jackets and shoes for your outfit to look the part.
Far from it. Instead, pick one expensive item and team it with cheaper High Street pieces to make your ensemble look high-end without having to go the whole hog.
It’s all about picking the right pricey pieces and mixing and matching them with care.
STATEMENT NECKLACE
Necklace, £115, stelladot.co.uk. Pink dress, £29.99, hm.com. White blazer, £24.99, mango.com, Heels, £29.50, marksandspencer.com.
Dresses with embellishments cost a fortune. Save money and invest in a pricey statement necklace instead. Worn together, the necklace looks like an integral part of your dress.
