Accessorize Some of the pieces in your closet may look so yesterday, but what if you paired them with one of the trendiest new accessories?

This allows you to keep up on the latest teen fashion design without spending your entire allowance amount to do so.

Wardrobe Building 101 What's your favorite color? When you begin to build a wardrobe for yourself, it is best to work it around a couple of basic colors that you love and that you look positively great in. From that base palette, you can build an entire wardrobe by adding a hot colored camisole or some wild beads. If you stick with basics like great-fitting blue jeans, solid colored t-shirts and a few sassy skirts, you will be able to mix and match in the latest teen fashion design. Don't forget to add a couple of patterned pieces for a bit of variety, like a pair of plaid capris or a pair of vertical striped pants that are the rage right now.
Once you have assembled a wardrobe that you love for the current season, take care of it by keeping the pieces clean, pressed and hung properly in your closet. To ensure that you can find all of the necessary items for a complete ensemble before school, keep your closet tidy with the clothing hung on hangers instead of heaped on the floor. The latest teen fashion design can be yours with these simple tips and a little bit of shopping savvy.
