With spring comes the desire for a fresh start — whether it’s for yourself, your wardrobe or your home. Unfortunately, revamping for spring can become an overwhelming task or bring a hefty price tag. But don’t despair — here are some tips to help you prepare for the new season without the added stress.

SET A BUDGET

Decide how much time you want to devote to cleaning, and set timers or listen to a favorite podcast to help you stick to your time limit. Make sure you also consider how much you want to spend on anything new so you don’t go overboard.

OUT WITH THE OLD

Whether you’re looking to update your closet or your home, make room first by removing old clothing or decor. Consider donating what you’re ready to part with, or selling the items with a second-hand retailer like Poshmark or The RealReal to pocket some extra cash.

SMALL CHANGES MAKE A BIG DIFFERENCE

Choose a handful of new items — like vibrant, flared pants or statement earrings — and pair them with your timeless pieces, mixing and matching to create new outfits. When it comes to your home, consider a couple of simple changes or additions to give your favorite spaces a whole new look — like replacing artwork with a large mirror to bring in more natural light or adding new throw pillows.

SHOP WITH A FLEXIBLE, TRANSPARENT PAYMENT OPTION
