And how do you make new outfits out of old clothing pieces?

If you want to revamp your closet, you’re in the right place to learn more. We know how frustrating it is to feel uninspired by your current wardrobe and outfit ideas, and we may be able to offer a few helpful suggestions. To start learning more about updating your wardrobe and making it feel new and exciting again, please continue reading to see our top suggestions for revamping your closet.

Invest in New Accessories

If you’re struggling to feel inspired by your clothes but are on a budget, we’re big advocates for investing in new accessories. For example, finding a new black bag can make your current wardrobe feel a bit newer. A black bag or any other new accessories can elevate your old outfits and make them feel a bit more sophisticated. Your black bag doesn’t even have to be brand new to make your wardrobe feel revamped.

Many people invest in accessories but forget about them, pushing them to the back of their closets and drawers and wearing them only rarely. If you have a black bag hidden in the back of your wardrobe, go digging for it and make an effort to implement it into a few of your outfits more regularly. Something as simple as a black bag can make heading outside in your clothes much more exciting.

Additionally, we’re fans of implementing multiple accessories to our outfits. Try adding a statement necklace, fun and broad-brimmed hat, shoes that come in an exciting or bright color, or anything else that feels like a fun addition to your style. Getting out of your comfort zone can make your wardrobe feel interesting and new, so don’t be afraid to experiment with things you wouldn’t ordinarily try.

Go Thrifting

Many people are interested in shopping secondhand for the planet's sake, and making your way to a local thrift store or two is a fantastic way to revamp your wardrobe. Thrift shops frequently contain many style types, while average retail stores only display one or two niche styles at a time.

Going to the thrift store can open your eyes to new and interesting pieces you wouldn’t ordinarily consider purchasing. This means you can be exposed to unpopular but interesting and inviting colors, different cuts for shirts, pants, dresses, and skirts, and even clothing initially intended for another gender.

If you’re new to thrifting, we recommend thoroughly checking the entire store. This includes going to the sections with clothing intended for the opposite gender. Many pieces are more androgynous than you might initially think, and you might find that you like more masculine or feminine pieces than you would typically try.

Thrifting is also a great way to stick to your budget and try new things. Secondhand items are frequently far less expensive than brand-new clothes, so you might feel freer to spend money on items you wouldn’t ordinarily purchase. While this may seem risky, spending far less money mitigates a lot of the risk and opens the doors to new opportunities in your wardrobe.

Going to thrift stores is also a great way to find new and interesting accessories and statement pieces, meaning you can build entirely new outfits based on these unique focal points. This is one of the most cost-effective ways to invest in new accessories and clothing items and make your closet feel exciting again.

Look for Inspirational Images

If you’re so strapped for cash that you can’t even consider purchasing new items, there’s also another fantastic way to feel inspired by your closet again. One of our favorite ways to do this is by looking for inspirational images, blogs, and videos online. Content creators will typically put together outfits with pieces they already own, showing how easy it is to make old items feel new.

For example, if you see a video with outfit inspiration and other tips, you may be reminded of a few items you already own. With this in mind, pay special attention to outfits that feature pieces like the ones you already own. While these new outfit combinations might not be ones you would ordinarily put together, it’s a great way to discover the potential in your closet.

You might not like every outfit you craft from these inspiration sources, but you’re more than likely to enjoy the look of at least a few. Because of this, we strongly recommend that you take advantage of this gold mine of new ideas from others.

Conclusion

If you want to revamp your wardrobe, you may want to prioritize staying within your budget. However, this isn't easy if you’re intrigued by trendy outfits and new pieces you see in stores or television ads. If you need help feeling inspired by your closet again, we hope our suggestions were helpful!
