Step 1
TIE IT. One of the easiest ways to update a wardrobe is to add a simple scarf. Fold a large square scarf into a triangle and drape it around your shoulders. Or tie a smaller scarf around your neck and wear it like a choker. There are so many ways to accessorize with scarves that you can have dozens of new looks, just by adding a different scarf, or changing the way you wear it. (See link under "Resources" below.)

Step 2
BLING IT. Another easy way to update your wardrobe is to incorporate some trendy accessories. A piece of artisan jewelry, new shoes, a striking handbag, a stylish hat, colorful or textured stockings can really freshen up your look without breaking the budget.

Step 3
SNIP IT. If you're creative and fearless, you can transform a boring tee shirt into a work of art -- or at least something new and interesting to look at. "Generation T: 108 Ways to Transform a T-Shirt" (see link under "Resources" below) is a clever book that shows you how far you can go with a pair of scissors without sewing a stitch.
