Tips For Making Money

There's a number of ways to earn money in Style Boutique, but some ways are better than others. Completing jobs such as providing customers with hairstyles, make-overs or new outfits will generate income. However, these will only earn you a certain amount of cash and can take up a large chunk of your time.

Here are some tips & tricks on how to earn money in Style Boutique:
  • Choose the unique theme for a fashion show and wear a Chic outfit. Customers will visit your boutique wanting to purchase an expensive chic outfit. Head to the Exhibition Hall and stock up on items from Enid Chen and ARIANNA brands. Customers will have a budget of up to $17,000 sometimes when requesting a Chic outfit.
  • When selling Chic outfits, make sure to purchase the most expensive items from Enid Chen and ARIANNA. The ideal items to purchase are the Crystal Collar Necklace ($2280), Faux Fur Robe ($2000), Smart Satchel ($1554) and Wedding Earrings ($1400). These items are an easy sell as you can combine them into an outfit.
  • Rent out all your Caprice Chalet rooms. Some room designs can get $1000 in rent and you can rent 9 rooms a day. That's an easy $9000! Make sure to collect your rent each day and invite new characters to rent out your room as soon as it empties out. For a guide on how to rent out rooms and the price of rent for each type, please refer to this guide.
  • Utilise your store mannequin. Always have an outfit on it and serve customers who wish to purchase it. Make sure the price of the outfit is at least $500 and change the outfit regularly as customers will not purchase one that has been on the mannequin for a few days.
  • Set up make-up sets for display and purchase at the Beautician. This opens another avenue for revenue at the Beautician besides giving make-overs. Each set sells for $150 and male customers at the Beautician will always purchase one.
  • Make sure you always have accessories in stock for each style at your boutique to sell to customers. For example, you have chosen a $200 dress for a customer and if you add the $100 bag to the outfit, you've easily brought the total cost up to $300 with one item.
  • Theme your boutique around medium or high priced style such as Baby-Doll or Chic. Customers will visit your boutique with higher budgets and you can sell more expensive items more often.
  • Complete design requests at the Designer Lounge. It costs nothing to do and you will receive a payment from the brand representative for helping them out.
  • Don't stock up on Purple Moon items. These items are pricey ($999 each) and are not the easiest thing to sell.
  • The best trick to make money off Purple Moon items is to combine one item into an outfit on the mannequin. For example, place a Purple Moon t-shirt that matches the lively style on a mannequin wearing a lively outfit.

  1. Hey sorry for doing this here but idk where to ask a question. I wanted to know if you can do one for the fashion show. Like what the emblems mean, what style best go with each emblem, and what stages are used for which show. Also how to get models into the shop so you can change the outfits and how to get 5 stars

    1. Yes, I will be doing one on the fashion show. It's just taking some time because it takes a while to go through a whole bunch of fashion shows.

      The models appear randomly and sometimes don't appear for every fashion show.

    1. To unlock Purple Moon, there will be a time when you can talk to Evie at the cafe and she will talk about opening a fun costume brand and she knows the person to do it. Then you need to go find Eliza and talk to her somewhere in the city. It's been ages since I unlocked the brand, but I remember it being something like that.

  3. Just as a bit of a tip for making money, you're not going to make much of a profit by selling Purple Moon accessories. Everything that comes from Purple Moon will cost $999.90 for the customers, which is only about a 1% increase if you bought the accessory for $990.

    1. It's good to sell of Purple Moon items as if you just sell them back when you clear them out you get barely any money back. I tend to only sell Purple Moon items on the mannequin as customers aren't fussed about the price.

  4. Thank you so much! It's so hard to make money in this game and I'll use these tips! Also, in your post about the brand ARIANNA you had 1 million dollars. So i'm trying to reach 1 million dollars but it's hard! But, my save data was courpted when I had 100,000 dollars which was closer to the goal. But now I have to restart but I'm already doing better.
