A great way to bring excitement to your life is with your wardrobe and home décor! Give your look that extra pizzazz without worrying about spending too much, by shopping Goodwill. Whether it’s a new pair of heels or colorful dinnerware, you’ll be confident in your bold choices when you know you didn’t spend too much to get them! Below are some simple tips to help you achieve this goal.

Tips to Spice Up Your Wardrobe:

Color

Select colors that not only compliment your skin tone and hair color, but also show off your bold side as well. The key? Go for a little contrast! If you're brunette, look for jewel tones. Your deep hair color makes these colors pop. Blonde? Highlight your look with dark colors like burgandy, black and platinum grey. For you red-heads out there, your look will stand out when your clothing colors compliment your red hair. Blues, greys, yellows and oranges are fun colors that keep you the center of attention!

Layer

Layering is a really simple way to not only change up the look of your wardrobe, but also get the most out of it. We're not talking any sort of bland layering; we're talking mixing up colors and patterns! A simple striped t-shirt can be spiced up by adding a floral cardigan over it; just keep the colors complimentary and you've got yourself a fun look. Turquoise and burgandy look gorgeous when paired together. Compliment your burgandy blouse with a turqoise jacket to really show off the two tones!

Accessories

Accessories are a really fun way to change-up your look.; a casual dress can instantly turn glamorous with the right headpiece or heels! If you're looking to liven up your little black dress; check out Goodwill's accessorie bins for some colorful earrings! Any color will stand out against the black. We suggest going for a color you wouldn't normally wear; it will give your wardrobe that "spice" you've been looking for! Want to extend the life of your favorite outfit? Find multiple jewelry options to change the feel of the look, such as a pair of heels one day, and casual flats the next.
