The supreme discipline when shopping is to find high-quality clothing without spending a lot of money. Because what makes a fashionista happier than a luxurious outfit that was secretly a real bargain?
If you want to save money on luxury shopping, you don't have to wait until the end of the season for the sale signs to decorate the windows of the more expensive stores. You can just as easily shop at inexpensive fashion chains and simply look for the colors that give the garment a visual upgrade and make it look more expensive – than it actually is. We'll tell you which colors have the luxury effect.
1. Petrol
The mixture of blue and green makes you dream of deep oceans. No wonder that the color looks so calm and graceful to you. In combination with other shades of blue, the monochrome look creates an expressive designer flair. If you want to go one step further, you can rely on materials such as silk, leather or velvet, which further reinforce the luxury effect.
2. White
Flawless and genuine – white is a real classic among luxury colors. The brightest of all tones makes your outfit shine and ensures class and elegance. In addition, white is the perfect combination partner that really goes with everything when in doubt. There is no easier way to upgrade your look.
3. Orange
In our opinion, orange is much underestimated. But the striking color is really something. When buying an orange garment, however, you should make sure that the tone is bright and not garish. Because toxic neon colors quickly look cheap. A strong orange, on the other hand, looks classy and shows that not only neutral shades can look chic.
4. Taupe
If you prefer it to be more inconspicuous without looking like a gray mouse, you should stick to taupe. The gray tone with the color cast in brown looks warm and tasteful. In combination with white, beige or black, you get a minimalist look that is not too intrusive, but still exudes pure elegance.
5. Nude
A color family has emerged particularly in recent seasons – the nude tones. Above all, beige and camel, which have become an absolute trend color in our wardrobes. The good thing: Different nude tones can be wonderfully combined. A complete look of beige, camel and sand is the perfect secret recipe for an expensive looking outfit.
