Let me save you a little time: Yes, I shop in the kids’ clothing section—and no, I’m not embarrassed. In fact, I’ve come to appreciate it as one of my top frugal fashion strategies. If that sounds strange, stick with me. By the end, you might be tempted to peek behind the rainbow unicorn display yourself.
I’m not talking about dressing like a cartoon character. I’m talking about real, stylish, practical basics—pajamas, tees, leggings, sneakers, jackets—that happen to cost a lot less in the kids’ department than they do in the adult section. And if you wear anything from a women’s zero to 8, the fit is more realistic than you'd think.
