I bought 2 jumpers, same design, in 2 different colours that I really like. Would you buy them again if you thought you'd get loads of wear from them?

Yes absolutely

No. I like variety and there are many other jumpers out there that make me feel just as good when something fits well.

Yes, definitely. Except maybe don't buy five pairs of quite expensive, perfect boots, and then take 24 years to wear out the first four pairs. If you do that, you may find that you can't wear pair number five, because your feet have grown a half-size with age. (I'm absolutely sick about this ... I still loved those boots.)

I have form for this. Especially if ordering online! I will often buy 2 tops different colours. At the moment I multibuy pairs of slip on trousers from LA Gear via Amazon - black or navy, elasticated waist, easy wear for home and work. Why not??? I also bought about 4 cardis in different colours.

I've done it with cardigans. Ive got the same style in yellow, red , coral, black, navy,powder blue and sage green.
I have three of the same cardigan all in navy. It came from an office "aircon wars" situation and most of my work clothes are navy. Changed job - haven't worn any of them for about two years Grin

I'm planning to do more of this. I seem to wear the same two outfits all the time, so not sure why I have anything else in my wardrobe tbh!

MauveMavis · 22/01/2022 11:55

I do it all the time.

shoes/ jeans/ tops/ jumpers.

I have so many of one particular boden t-shirt I had to tell my colleauges so they didn't think I was wearing the same top continuously....

I also feel like I have a uniform..... jeans/ t-shirt/ jumper/ allbirds in winter.
Summer = chino/ different t-shirt/ teva sandals.

Mine get worn all the time. With dresses, with wide leg trousers, with skinnies, with shorts on holiday. Red Herring at Debinhams was my 'go to' for them
