5 Trends You Can Rock at Any Age (Budget Edition)

This is from a Youtuber I follow, Busbee Style who is a professional wardrobe consultant and she has a list of current trends that any age can "rock".

My style these days is mostly oversized and comfortable, but working on improving that.

For a more limited budget though, I will offer a few suggestions:

Jeans

• Levi's jeans have a variety of styles and I have found them to be the most durable.
• Thrift Stores on half-price sale days.  
• Kohl's or JC Penney's when they have a sale and stacking with coupon codes.

Color Trends

• Surprisingly, in Dollar General    While the selection is not vast, I don't think I have seen a piece over $15.  Most of it is comfortable and they even carry Bobbie Brooks brand (as made famous by John Cougar Mellencamp in his 1982 song "Jack and Diane".

Modern Motorcycle Jackets

• Consignment Shops 
• Macy's  with sale or coupon usually $40 and up 

Animal Prints

I do think you can go wrong with too much animal print:Photo: Source

This I think is specially if you are older, so I will limit this to:

• Shoes - 6pm.com - they have pumps starting at $11.80.
• Scarf  -  Ebay.com - While a lot of items that come up under the sort are not animal prints, the Auctions start as low as .01 and some include free shipping.

Sunglasses

If more for fashion and not out in the Sun all-day:

• Dollar Tree - they have a variety of style during the Spring/Summer months.
• DIY your Dollar Tree Sunglasses.  Below is a pair that I glued a chain using E6000 glue to the top several years back as a copycat of a Chanel pair that sold for $2,200.

• Forever 21 - they have a large variety in current styles starting at $5.90.

Burgundy and Tan .99 Cent Scarf Purchased on EBay

I wear scarves nearly every day as they can quickly change the look of an outfit and has the added bonus as doubling as bib when you are eating and if you drop of bit of spaghetti or salad with dressing off your fork as long as it lands on the scarf you can take it off and rinse it and still have clean clothes and not smell like spaghetti or salad dressing the rest of the day.

I purchased this scarf from seller moj-81 on EBay for only .99 shipped.  It is shipped from China so it can take up to 3-4 weeks to receive (took 21 days for this scarf).

It is 100% polyester and ones like these are pretty much wash and wear, but if you felt it needed to be ironed you would want to be sure to keep on a very low setting and maybe even a pressing cloth or you could melt where the iron touched.

Like many sellers, offering change over time and other sellers my have similar.  If you are looking for certain type, fabric or color you can go to Scarves.  For this one, I was looking for a burgundy or wine colored scarf to go with a dress I had purchased and I like the colors and pattern on this one.
