If you LOVE clothes almost obsessively

How does this manifest? Do you own a lot? Do you plan your buys meticulously or impulse buy? Do you spend time mending, steaming, ironing, organising? Do you follow formulas or have varied wardrobe?

Since pandemic, I have started to focus on quality more but that means I do not have a lot of clothes, though I truly love what I won. I think through what I need but I would also like to fall in love thing more than I do.

I just want to know that this materialist love is shared by someone else…

Oh tell me about it. I'm currently contemplating spending the price of a "holiday of a lifetime" on a Max Mara icon coat.

@NatashaDancing you will not regret this!

I do prioritise holidays over clothes - just.

I would rather do a 4k holiday than a 6k one so I have a better clothes budget. It's the bloody dc though, education, extracurriculars, etc.

I love clothes. I buy far too many, second hand mainly. I don't mind shopping high street but baulk at paying £££ new. I love a charity shop find most of all.

I have a particular weakness for costs snd jackets.

I can't leave the house unless I know I'm happy in what I'm wearing.

I lost my way over the last few years recently and am coming round to the need for a capsule wardrobe in key colours.

I get particularly excited if I have an event dress up for which is quite rare as my social life has gone down the pan.
