Now that the dark winter months are behind us we can get on with looking forward to summer and start shopping for new clothes. With shops getting their summer range of designer clothing in stock it is understandable that you would want to treat yourself to a new wardrobe. If you browse round some of the specialist designer outlets you may find that some of the prices are a little (or indeed a lot) out of your price range. Don\’t let this put you off as there are still ways in which you can get yourself some stylish new clothes.

If you are a seasoned shopper then you will no doubt be aware of the clearance sale schedule for your local designer outlet. It is quite common for many shops to clear out their stock around January in order to make room for their spring and summer lines. The summer ranges of clothing tend to be sold off cheaper around July when shops are making room for the winter clothing range. If you pick the appropriate time of year then you will be able to stock up on some real bargains.

Remember that shops stocking designer clothing may not necessarily be located in the centre of the city. The overheads associated with running a high street shop are significant, so to save on costs it is not uncommon for designer outlets to tuck themselves further away from large urban developments where department stores all sell the same merchandise. Visiting a shop a little further out of your way may help to improve your chances of getting items of clothing at a slightly reduced price. Every little counts when you are looking to buy several items!

If you are a regular down some clothing shops then it\’s worth getting friendly with the staff who work there as they\’ll be able to let you know when certain items of stock are likely to get marked down. They may even have a mailing list where you can be kept up to date of all the latest discounts. If this is the case then make sure you get yourself signed up.

Don\’t forget to check out websites where you can take a look at classified adverts for people getting rid of old or unwanted clothing. Online auction sites such as eBay will be rich pickings for people selling everything from cheap clothes to handbags and hair accessories. If your local town or city has a few second hand shops then they could be well worth a visit as you would be surprised at how often people will throw out quality clothing when they are getting a new wardrobe. You may be able to find items such as diesel, Levis or Bolongaro Trevor clothing so its definitely worth taking your time and having a good search through the clothing racks.

If you are really struggling to afford the clothes you want then perhaps you too could consider selling your old unwanted clothes and shoes on eBay – you may be surprised at the money it could bring in!
