First and foremost welcome to Minimum Wage Fashion. The blog for those who love to shop, but don't always have the funds to do so! This blog will hopefully inspire you to look new places, find the best deals, and put together comfortable and fashion forward outfit that are so cheap people wonder how you afforded it flipping burgers three times a week.
As a college student myself with a job that pays minimum wage you can guess why I choose the title. There are a few fashion rules that I have been taught and lived by for the past twenty-one years.
1. Shop clearance FIRST.
--- This staple rule leads most of the purchases in my closet. Before I could walk my mother was having me hold her clearance dot find items.
2. Cost per Wear.
--- Now yes this is about finding/creating your style with the best deals possible. However we all have pieces that we paid full price for. This is when you factor CPW, most of the time the item is worth the price!
Ex. You bought: $100 sweater. You wear it: 10 times. The sweater now cost you: $10.
3. Buy the RIGHT size FOR YOU!
--- I cannot stress this enough! If you can't sit down in your jeans, they're too tight. Nobody can see the size your pants and shirts say. However they can see whether they fit or not. I promise, you look the best in the size that's meant for you.
These tips are the foundation to any wardrobe.
This blog will feature clothing that can be found at:
Target

Cotton on
Herbergers/Macy's...etc
