My young teen DDs are now interested in buying their own clothes.
Which is fine by me! Just not sure how much and how regularly I should be giving them an allowance for clothing. I will still buy uniform, underwear and basics like swimwear. They currently get £3 a week pocket money on their GoHenry cards which they can spend as they wish on bits and bobs or save up.
I was thinking in addition maybe £40 each at the beginning of each school holidays. That would buy quite a bit in Primark but not much in Topshop, so maybe it's not enough?!? They both like sportswear brands, Adidas, Nike etc and do a lot of sport and neither are what I would describe as fashionistas
I'd be really interested to hear what arrangements work for other people.
