I have read this with interest, thanks. Being an empty nester, there has been a bit more money for clothes, so I think I'll have enough till I die. It is an incentive to keep fit, eat well & not put on weight or get gout or something. However, only having a small house, the wardrobes get a bit full, so I pack summer & winter wardrobe things away each year. When I do this I also sort out things I didn't wear that year for review & re-work/move on to charity shop/ repair & check for any missed marks & stains that need cleaning. I also wipe the insides of shoes with surgical spirit & remove any dust & mud from soles before putting away, usually in the original box they came in. I try to totally avoid clothes that need a lot of ironing, or that pill or snag. I was lucky enough to get some bargain quality cashmere jumpers 15yrs ago from TKM & also Edinburgh Woollen Mill. I have thrashed them to death over many years & they don't pill or need much maintenance, just the occasional handwash in Ecover. They are always very warm, but not sweaty. The same for my Smedley merino ones bought from the factory shop. I have also, during covid, discovered the wonder of Zoflora linen fresh concentrated disinfectant for soaking delicate knickers before giving them a quick low temperature wash. It doesn't damage the fabric & say goodbye to any stains or chance of thrush etc. When I very occasionally wear stockings, I wear quality holdups. If one gets damaged, you can still use the other. I buy a big batch of kids grey school socks from Tesco (I'm a size 5) that are all the same, so no issues with pairing. I keep them in a seperate laundry bag & wash & rack dry them together, also after a Zoflora soak. This means less odd socks & protects against fungal nail infection. I think I might get one of those cheap knock down clothes rails, to help with wardrobe sorting & quickly getting ready for going away. I use John Freida hair shampoo & conditioner plus their wonderful Frizz Ease, which if you get busy & don't do your hair properly & get a matt, it totally makes it super quick to brush or comb out later. Before this I have had hairdressers resort to practically shaving my hair off because my workworn dreadlock wouldn't comb out. I take a Tesco multivitamins every day, in case I don't have time to eat properly & want to avoid getting really sick. I note these now also contain folic acid, as well as the all important in the winter vitamin D. Pre covid, I never used wipes, but I now keep some Dettol ones in the car. Apart from cleaning up after being out & about, they are excellent for generally wiping the interior down, far better than a lot of car products & they are kind to your hands, as is Fairy WU liquid, which will even remove black hoof oil from jodphurs. Other cheaper brands I've used were a waste of money. Lastly, don't have too many handbags. It can get very confusing & time consuming moving stuff in & out of them, & they take up quite a lot of space, but I have plenty of fold up hessian bags of various sizes for shopping, carrying extra stuff & the beach. All have great designs on them, & they seem to keep clean.
