I’ll admit it. I’m a little on the bougie side. I have somewhat of an expensive taste, and my budget doesn’t always reflect that. Well honestly, it never does. Nevertheless, I don’t let that get in the way of my style, as I know how to look like a million bucks without spending it. I’ll let you in on a little secret: The key to looking expensive is finding clothes that fit you well and make you feel your best. What really makes something look elite and elevated is self-confidence. I mean, the whole reason we get dressed in the morning is to put on our armor to take on the day ahead. Your clothes should be tools for making you feel like the best version of yourself and accentuating your best assets. Your personal style tells the world who you are without you even having to say anything, and I want my style to say, “I’m expensive and worth it.”
