Dressing Like Money (When You're On a Ramen Budget)

Leo

1 May, 2025

Dress well on a budget

Dressing Like Money (When You're On a Ramen Budget)

Well, let's talk about looking fresh without emptying ya bank — y'know what I mean?

Figure Out Your Vibe First

Before you go wild at the mall, like I did last Black Friday (big yikes), take a sec to:

Scroll TikTok fashion tags
Hit Pinterest for inspo
Actually check what you already got hiding in your closet

Thrift Game Strong

Listen... some of my best fits came from thrift stores — no cap. Was at Goodwill last week and scored this vintage leather jacket that looks straight outta "Wednesday" season 2. Pro tip — hit rich neighborhood thrift spots. Trust me on this one.

Sales and Such

End-of-season sales are your bestie
Those Instagram ads for sketchy sites? Maybe not
Depop and Poshmark though? That's where it's at

Mix That Stuff Up

Y'know what's wild? You only need like 15 pieces to look different every day. For real:

One good white tee (mine's got coffee stains but whatever)
Decent jeans that actually fit
That one jacket everyone compliments
Some basic shoes that go with everything

Keep Your Stuff Alive

Well, this part's kinda boring but... take care of your clothes? My dryer ate another shirt yesterday — don't be me.

Accessories and Such

Here's the tea — accessories change everything. Got this one chain from my cousin (shoutout Target clearance) that makes every fit look expensive.

The Friend Closet Hook-Up

Trading clothes with friends is like... free shopping? Had this whole swap thing last weekend — walked away with three new fits and only lost that sweater I never wore anyway.

Anyway, style's really just confidence and maybe some clean socks. Don't stress about the price tags — half the influencers you follow are in debt anyway (probably).

What's your best thrift score? Drop it below — unless it's better than my leather jacket, then keep that to yourself lol.
