Think Your Buying Wholesale Clothing? Think Again!

Buying wholesale clothing is an obvious appeal to consumers – you can get twice as much for the same price!  But while many outlets and retailers may advertise “wholesale” prices, you aren’t exactly paying wholesale.

A good example is factory outlet malls, which can give consumers the impression that they are purchasing clothing at wholesale prices; however, this is not the case.  These outlets still have overhead to pay for (such as rental space and employees) which is added to the cost of the merchandise.  Prices will still be better at an outlet than a regular retail store.

In addition, wholesale clubs are not quite what they proclaim to be.  They have the same costs as a retail store including staff, location costs, insurance, etc.  Buying in bulk will certainly save you money but you are not really purchasing wholesale merchandise when you shop at a wholesale club.

In order to purchase wholesale clothing, you must buy from a legitimate wholesaler and buy in bulk.  Furthermore, you may be required to have a vendors license. 

Senior Portrait Tips

Senior portraits are often the finale of an important part chapter in our lives and who doesn’t want everyone to remember them for their stellar portraits? Whether you’ll be taking portraits or it’s your very own (not so) little one, here are a few tips to make sure you look your best, courtesy of a renowned Salt Lake senior portraits photographer

· Get lots of sleep the night before – tired eyes usually show traces of redness which can show up in your pictures.

· Avoid getting a new haircut or style right before pictures. Chances are, you won’t like the results! Also, keep in mind that using hair color or dye will change how your hair looks in the photos.

· Don’t wear bold patterns, polka dots, horizontal stripes, sleeveless shirts, and anything with logos.

· The clothing that looks best in portraits are solid colors, simple styles, and long sleeves.

· Guys should make sure they have a fresh shave and girls should avoid trying out new makeup.

· Avoid too much jewelry – you want the focus to be on you and your features, not overbearing jewelry.
