The key to looking genuinely wealthy lies in avoiding all things trashy, bling and tasteless. In order to do Paris Hilton and Britney Spears-style trailer-chic, it’s actually necessary to spend quite a lot of money. Avoid jerseylicious-inspired tight-and-bright combinations and opt instead for quality fabrics and classic cuts.
Natural Fibres

People are often tempted to buy counterfeit designer handbags, accessories and clothes, and to buy plastic pleather products instead of ones made of real leather. Girls, no matter how convincing you think your fake purchase is, trust me, it’s obviously not. You don’t need to wear labels to look chic, but it is important to go for items that are well-made and authentic.
Good Grooming

The wealthy are invariably professionally groomed. While all over maintenance is costly, a lot of it is perfectly manageable in the home environment. Ensure that key features like eyebrows and nails are treated by your beautician once every few months and between visits to the salon, attend to matters yourself taking care to follow the professional’s blueprint very carefully.
Tailor Made
