Tips For Recycling Last Year's Spring Wardrobe

It's that time of year when your boots go to the back of the closet and strappy sandals come to the front. Times are tough and a new spring wardrobe may be out of the question, but no need for your style to suffer.

Celebrity stylist and Airplus spokesperson, Tara Swennen, offers insider tips to looking great this season without spending a fortune.
 
MUST-HAVE TIPS FOR RECYCLING LAST YEAR'S SPRING WARDROBE

Quick fix for favorites that feel dull...

Re-dye pieces to bring them back to life.  Shoe repair stores can re-dye most accessories such as shoes and handbags or do it yourself and save even more.  Most convenient stores sell clothing dyes that you can easily use at home.

Recycle footwear for added comfort...

Brands such as Airplus offer affordable products for making old shoes fit like new.

Give shoes a good polish and they will be as good as new.

Tailor old pieces for a fresh fit...

Try things on before recycling them to make sure they fit properly.  Most women simply skip over ill fitting pieces but once tailored to fit you will be much more inclined to throw it on again.

Readjust lengths for a new look...

Turn a knee length A-line skirt into a short and sassy mini, make a long sleeved blouse into a cap sleeve top or even add a ruffle to dresses for a new twist.

Look to current trends to rethink your outfits...

Be bold when mixing and matching prints and patterns.  Pair a small print with a larger one or a bright color with a fun graphic or texture for an updated look.  If you think outside the box you can create a multitude of new looks. 

Host a girls "Swap" night...

This is a new trend among friends.  Order pizza, drink cocktails, and bring your least used items to swap with friends.  Remember, one person's junk is another person's treasure.
