I’m a fashion pro and swear by the sandwich method to look posh even on the tightest budget – here’s how to nail it | The Sun

A STYLING whizz has shared five tips on how to look like you're loaded even when you're anything but – and why something called the 'sandwich method' makes all the difference.

Looking elegant and classy often comes with a hefty price tag – but according to fashion pro, a woman named Anastazia, you can achieve the same effect without forking out a fortune.


The guru, better known to her 1.1million fans as @stazzylicious, took to TikTok where she explained how you can look expensive even on the tightest of the budgets.

Knitted dresses

The first trick she advised to do is shop for a dress – but not just any random dress, as there are so many styles on the high-street that look cheap.

Instead of buying a flimsy frock, the pro recommended purchasing a knitted dress.

''They always look more expensive in my opinion – and Zara always has good ones.''

Monochromatic look

When it doubt, put together a monochromatic outfit consisting of just one colour, such as black, white or beige.

''It always looks more put-together and black tends to look a lot more expensive.''

In her video, Anastazia demonstrated this with an all-black look that she had styled with black bottoms and a figure-hugging top.

Tailor your trousers

Oftentimes, nothing can ruin an outfit more that a garment that doesn't quite fit right – and here, the blonde urged to tailor any ill-fitting clothes, particularly bottoms.

The sandwich method

Whilst sharing her favourite hacks, Anastazia also chatted about something she refers to as the 'sandwich method'.

''For example, if you have a top in a certain colour, match it with your heels and you have a little sandwich going on with the colour in the middle.

''Trust me, you don't need to dress expensive in order to look expensive – this whole look is under £80,'' she said, rocking a pair of heels from ASOS, trousers from Zara and a knitted cardigan.
