Was there ever a time when you have nothing else to wear but your old clothes, that you borrowed some clothes from your other siblings?
I used to borrow my eldest sister's clothes when I was in high school. I don't have a job yet so my clothes are just those what they buy or give me..Most especially when I have a big date and I kinda wanna impress the guy, i would chose the latest trend in my sister's closet. She's already earning at that time, so she can afford to buy the latest fashion..She allowed me to use some so i would look different and matured..
Do your siblings let you borrow their clothes?

Hi.
I have elder brother and he is really nice to me. When ever he visits the market he surely brings something for me and he does have a good taste in cloths, so I don't really borrow cloths from him, he simply gives me whatever he have and I ask for.

I sometimes borrow my brother's t shirt if i feel like wearing one especially during hot weathers..i own shirts too but they are fitted on my body and it makes me sweat even more during summer so what i do is borrow theirs which is quite bigger to what i own..^_^

Yup, i do borrow clothes from my brother a few years ago, when i dun have much clothes to wear.. lol =D As i was only either working or studying everyday for 3 yrs straight, i dun go out that often too and thus i dun buy much clothes.. IN the end when i need more clothes, i dun have any to spare especially when it's the rainy season as my clothes cant be dried in time.. haha..
So i had no choice but to borrow from him though his sizes are bigger than mine as he likes baggy clothes.. haha
But now, i have more than enough of clothes to wear till i cant finish wearing all of them.. lol

I borrow clothes from all my siblings from time to time, and some of them borrow clothes from me. My brother usually just borrows my "boyish" clothes, like my basketball jerseys and my football jerseys

actually people who live in China they dislike borrow clothes from others, because they think it is not clean if the clothes have been wear by other people. if someone need some clothes, people can give one or two instead of borrow them, or even say no, or some beautiful words for answering that. as I more 40 years experience, I have never borrow clothes from other people and been borrowed by others, that's a habit.

I have wore clothes from my siblings, but it was a long time ago, I don't have either much clothes so sometimes I have to borrow some clothes of my brother, it is funny that my sister would borrow clothes from me, of course just shirts or jeans because since I am male, I don't have any females clothes, but I think I had some unisex clothes, so she would borrow from me, I don't think that I have borrow clothes from her because she didn't have any clothes that I would wear, she only had skirts and very female clothes, but now that I lived alone I don't have someone that I can borrow clothes from, or siblings that can ask me for clothes, anyway I don't need to borrow clothes now because I have enough on my closet, I remember once that I lost a good job because I don't have a suit to use in my interview, and since my brother moved just a few week ago of that I just lost the job, I was really depressed because I was not able to take this good job, but well now I would not had those problems, I think it is funny how little things can do a big difference in life, I never though that I would lost a good job just for don't have a suit, well I had one then but it was in laundry and I would not get it at time, anyway maybe it was just the fate that I would not take that good pay job.

Yes, since my sister and I is almost the same size, we used to lend each others clothes. And it's fine to us. We usually offers something which we might think good for the occassion.
I have also borrowed some T-shirt from my brother when I was pregnant, I just need some shirt which are big.
But, not at all, I have some clothes which I don't want to be borrow and I tell them strictly.
Thanks and have a good day!

My sisters were like that too..Sometimes when I really wanna borrow something that's really fit for the occasion and they won't let me have it because it's something given to them by their husbands and they don't wanna hear from their hubby something like, why did they let me borrow it when they bought it specially for their wives..But, I understood and I didn't push it anymore..thanks..

I'm the eldest among three brothers so I cannot really borrow their clothes because I am bigger than they are. But I let them borrow mine as long as they like. Underwears not included by the way. I'm not comfortable when I know that my undies were once used by my brother. If it comes to my knowledge that they have worn it even un-intentionally, I would readily give it to them for their use. For my shirts and pants, I can share it with them with all my heart.

I was the older one and I had a brother, and in no way would I borrow anything from him, besides he was way taller than me. And he liked different colors from me, so I would not even borrow his scarf if we had lived in Winnipeg instead of in Vancouver.

Unfortuatly I don't have any sister that I can barrow cloths from. But, of course I do have my mom and we can fit into one anothers closths so sometimes I do borrow her cloths. Then if I have the urge to be a tom boy for one reason or another I do have two brothers that I can take cloths from to wear.
