wardrobe aesthetics

Do you want a new wardrobe? Are you looking to add to or redefine your style? Try shopping with us at Uptown Cheapskate. We have thousands of items at a fraction of the cost of department stores! We’re here to help you figure out what you want aesthetically and to help you look fabulous for less!

classic

There’s a reason it’s timeless. Classic is all about that effortless look. It seems to never go out of style and is super easy to keep pieces for long periods of time. Neutral and solid colors with minimal prints such as beige, creams, and greys, as well as black and white are the standard. Jewelry is usually dainty or simplistic. Remember simple and classic is never boring if you know how to work it!

cottagecore

Do you love frills and gardens? If so, cottagecore may be for you! This simple and feminine aesthetic is meant to look as if you’re walking through a blooming meadow and heading into your tiny country house for tea. Prairie dresses, peasant blouses, shirred tops with puffy sleeves, floral prints, dreamy pastel color palettes, ruffles, and lace make up the beautiful dream-like quality of this style.

streetwear

Streetwear is just how it sounds, it’s meant for the streets whether you’re just going to the corner shop, hanging out with friends, walking the dog, or skateboarding. It’s the best of comfort and style! It’s laid back but is still thoughtful when it’s put together. This aesthetic contains hoodies, sneakers, tees, sweats, athletic wear, and jeans preferably straight-leg. This is a very versatile style that always looks good paired with a hat and shades.

hippie or boho

Hey there flower child! This style is carefree with peace and love! This style hasn’t really changed much with its tracing of psychedelic origins from the 60s and 70s. Think of tie-dyes, natural and bright color palettes, paisley prints, flare or bell bottom jeans, crochet and hand-knitted items, boots, fringe, and suede, as well as jewelry stacked and full of statement pieces. A hint is the more vintage looking the better!

academia

Do you love libraries, museums, books, and the arts? This style is all about elegance and looking fresh out of a classroom. You won’t go wrong in plaids, neutral or muted colors, berets, khaki pants, sweater vests, tweeds, and collared blouses. Pair with velvet hair ribbons, loafers, boots, and simple but chunky jewelry. Don’t forget the messenger bag to carry all your important studies!

goth

Are you a child of darkness? This is all about finding the beauty in the absence of color. Black is your best friend with this aesthetic but super dark colors of blue, red, purple, and green can add a nice touch. Pair together things like crystal or silver jewelry, chains, chokers, lace, chunky or high-heeled boots, heavy metal band tees, and of course don’t forget the black eyeliner, polish, and lipstick!

Jeans

Name-brand jeans from a department store can be so expensive. At Uptown Cheapskate, we sell all the brands you know and love, plus maybe a few new ones for you to try on. We have so many styles to choose from like skinny, straight, flare, and a wide range of colors!

Vintage

Vintage finds are definitely on the buy list! Preowned fashion is always the best because it’s already been broken in and therefore will be more comfortable to wear, especially in shoes and jeans! Remember that because it’s vintage it is all the more special and unique like a band t-shirt, a pair of limited edition sneakers, or an acid wash jean jacket. When you find a vintage piece it’ll feel like a hidden gem and it’ll be that amazing one-of-a-kind piece you can add to your stylish wardrobe.

Accessories

Accessories are an essential part of any outfit from a trendy belt to statement jewelry. A great accessory makes any outfit look complete, and we make sure the pieces we buy are of the best quality. We have so many options to choose from so you’re bound to add something that makes your outfit pop!

Clothes

Of course, we have to add clothes to this list! Everyone needs clothes and we have the most stylish brand name and vintage stuff around. We have so many colors, styles, and prints to choose from in a multitude of sizes. If you are worried that your closet might get too full with all of our amazing deals, just sell them to us and earn cash for your new stuff!

Pre-owned is the most fashionable way to shop. Whether you’re in the market for jeans, vintage, the perfect accessories, or just clothes in general, Uptown Cheapskate has you covered! Remember if you need to clean out your closet, we will buy your gently used old clothes and then you can use the cash you earn to shop for your new wardrobe!
