She recently shared six things that she’d never waste her money on and you shouldn’t either.

The elegance pro reckons that wasting money is always obvious, and so tacky.

Avoid fast-fashion trends

We get it – you really want that new skirt from Primark, but according to Anna, if you probably wont wear it for years to come it’s just not worth it.

“There are things that I don’t personally buy because I know I can get them for half the price somewhere else and it’s going to be as good quality.”

Don’t be too materialistic

“Of course we need some material things in our lives,” Anna said, “But actually there are some bigger and better investments that one can make.”

The elegance coach recommended saving your money to spend on experiences like travelling, or furthering your education, rather than splashing out hundreds of ponds on pricey shoes.

Don’t cut corners on healthy food

There’s nothing wrong with enjoying a cheeky takeaway pizza every now and again, but if you find yourself wasting money on junk food all the time, think again, Anna said.

“If you have just a little bit of money to spend, always opt for premium when it comes to the things you put in your mouth,” Anna said.

Don’t buy the same item twice

It can be tempting to buy multiples of an items if you love it, or even if they’re slightly different.

Anna explained that always used to find herself buying the same style of black skater dress, even though she knew she already had multiple like it at home.

She continued: “That’s such a bad thing to do, you’re wasting money, you’re looking the same, you’re not evolving your wardrobe.”

“Who cares if you wear designer or not,” the elegance coach quipped.

Instead, focus on the quality of your clothes.
