How often do you wear your clothes?

In my case, I use my clothes well. Of course, there are a few saris from my wedding; the only remnants ;) Wedding itself collapsed long back. Apart from those saris, which I am planning to discard at the earliest possible, I do use ALL the other things over there. I hate shopping for clothes, so I shop only once a year. About six sets a year is all I need. Cheers!

Hi,there! Well,it depends on the seasons.If it's summer time,I just change my clothes every day.But now it's winter,so I wear the clothes for two or three days before I change to another one.I usually make full use of my clothes though I also have some clothes that I have no time to wear.Luckily I'm not a crazy shopper and don't buy clothes that often.Thanks for the discussion and I think I'll pay attention to this in the future.Have a nice weekend^_^

I guess I wear 10% of my clothes 90% of the time, if that. I have certain clothes that I have to wear to work pants and shirt, and I wear them most days. I have TONS and TONS of clothes but only wear a minimal amount on a daily basis. We have been going trough some clothes and weeding some out, but I still have too many. I tried turning our hangers backwards before. After 3 months we got rid of about half of the ones still backwards. The other half were seasonal or special occasion, so we kept them.

That's a good idea, but I'd probably forget what I had hung what way in the first place. lol. Instead, I usually go through clothes as I pack for fall/winter and spring/summer, if I didn't wear it in a year, it goes to charity. And I can believe that article, I mean I have 3 pairs of jeans I wear all the time, and a couple more I wear every once in a while, same with slacks, I have a few pair of dress slacks but rarely wear them. But since I can't stand a whole lot of clutter, it's pretty easy for me to sort through and get rid of things I don't wear or don't like any longer.

That 80:20 sounds just about right. We are finally to the point in retirement where it makes more sense just to stock a few comfortable clothes and have a happy closet than to have every possibly someday might-be-needed outfit on hand. I should get rid of all dresses, and just buy one if we ever have to go someplace fancy. I already threw out all the so-called "dress" shoes. I would never hang the clothes backwards just to find out how often they had been worn. That is too much like work! I just put the stuff I wear regularly on the left side and the less-used stuff on the right. Since it is more automatic for me to reach into the right side, this forces me to think a second before grabbing. Usually I end up choosing something from the left though. Comfort rules!

I can totally relate to that. I have a ton of clothes and I keep wearing the same things all the time. This year I definitely cutting down. I have enough clothes to last two lifetimes. I said I would not buy any clothes this year. I pretty much stuck to that vow. I only bought a pair of jeans and maybe two shirts and a paid of shorts. I've spent the last two days cleaning out my closets and have a bag of clothes sitting on my floor right now waiting to go to a shelter. I'm not buying any more clothes next year as well(hope I can stick to that) except for underwear and shoes. I used to shop a lot and love to bargain hunt. I don't have as much money as I used to have and I don't like shopping as much as I used to.

I can say I'm one of those people that fall into that wear the 20% of my clothes category. The one reason I didn't get rid of the clothes that I didn't wear cause they were business attire and just cause I'm not working in the business field right now doesn't mean that I won't in the near future. Plus, you can only wear your church clothes on sunday. I probably have enough church clothes to wear a different outfit each sunday for 3 months. I would have to get rid of a lot of my good clothes if I took this articles advice. Now I could do this with my everyday clothes.

If pajamas count as clothes they always for me except for 10 mins or so when I am in the shower, but that is it.

well bout me. I hang my clothes and what clothes comes first is the one am goin to wear everytime I go out. To make it fair for my clothes to make sure also that I really uses them. What's the reason for buying it wherein you're not goin to use it.

if i come to think about it, its totally true.
