Promotional Model Necessities - Cheap!

I know that Pink Avenue Models blogs a lot about our expectations and rules of working promotions. We also mention what every promotional model should have in their closet but I don't think we ever mentioned where to get these items for cheap. Today I have been researching popular stores to get the cheapest prices on the items that models will need when working events. Some of these basic items are less than $10! Have fun shopping!

Black skirt. This is a must! You can dress this up and look professional at a trade show but you can also use it while working liquor promotions. I found one at Forever 21 for only $5.50!

Khaki shorts. These will be a requirement for brand ambassadors in the summer. Old Navy is a good place to go for khaki shorts and they will cost around $20. Aeropostale will also have them for about $25, and American Eagle $35. Make sure when making this purchase that the shorts are not too short or too tight.

Black heels. Every model should have a pair of simple black closed toe shoes. Gojane.com has shoes for about $23 and Charlotte Russe has great shoes for about the same price. Another good place to go for name brand shoes at cheap prices is T J Maxx or Marshalls.

Khaki pants/black pants. Models will wear these all the time! It's best to go to a department store for these and you can usually find them on sale. Old Navy would be a good place to go as well.

White button down shirt. This is requested a lot at trade shows. H&M is a great place to go. You should be able to find one there for less than $20.

Little black dress. A must! This is worn at trade shows, charity events, bar promotions and other events. Models can get a simple dress from Charlotte Russe, Wet Seal, Forever 21 , H&M, Urban Outfitters, Victoria's Secret, or Macy's. Prices can range from $20 -$80. Buy one that fits great and makes you feel amazing.

I hope our shopping tips helped you all. Never spend a lot of money on these things, look good at an affordable price.
