Take stock

...before you shop
Now before you go out and spend your limited funds it is important to take stock of your wardrobe before you go shopping. Doing this will help you decide what key pieces you need and what you don't. You may have a few pairs of jeans, but only one functional skirt. Thinking about things like this beforehand will help you decide what direction you'd like to go in and create a focus. If you are having trouble with this look around the internet and in other media sources to get ideas of what you like and how to develop your wardrobe effectively and efficiently.

Also you are no longer ten so if there are things that are really too small for you or are something you wouldn't be seen dead in then now is the time to get a charity bag going and toss them out.

You now have some idea of what you are going to keep and probably an idea of what you would like to get to make the most out of your wardrobe however before you do that think about your body shape and how that will influence your purchases after all if you feel comfortable in what you are wearing you will feel more confident and less self-conscious.
