Do you buy the whole outfit?

Was browsing on a clothing website earlier and it struck me that I only ever buy odd garments when I shop for clothes, I never think to buy whatever else the model is wearing with it. Maybe part of me thinks that is quite unoriginal and also I don’t tend to make big orders all in one, so it seems extravagant - but someone has obviously done the thinking for you and maybe that might help with effortless dressing? How much do you just buy from one brand?

I don’t think I’ve ever bought all of what the model is wearing as h usually only like one item and would think we are in the majority but I’m sure some people do shoot hay way especially if not sure what to pair things with

Only once! In Dorothy Perkins, of all places. A mannequin was wearing a pale mint green blouse with a black and white pencil skirt. It looked great so I bought them both.

No, never. But I might buy something online and think about how I can style it like the website has - eg, buy a dress, and wear it with a denim jacket and trainers I already have - if I like the overall “look”.
