Highly anticipated debut book from award-winning creator featured in Vogue, The Times, and The Telegraph.

Frugal Chic is the complete guide to fixing your finances, protecting your time, and building your personal style.

Social media sensation and pioneer of the viral Instagram and TikTok movement ‘Frugal Chic’, Mia McGrath reveals how to build a life that feels stylish, intentional and financially secure.

Drawing on behavioural psychology, philosophy, and her own journey from fashion obsessive to self-made saver, Mia reveals how modern life quietly erodes self-worth and fuels overspending. She explains why traditional budgeting advice fails, why identity matters more than discipline, and why true freedom comes from simplicity rather than restriction.

Mia shows:


- how to shift your identity to intentional saver
- why social media and overconsumption keep you stuck in emotional spending cycles
- how to cultivate rituals, taste, and habits that reduce financial chaos
- how to save and invest to grow your wealth with confidence


Frugal Chic is not about penny-pinching, depriving yourself, or perfection. It’s about spending intentionally on what matters to you most in life and building wealth for your future.
