That makes sense. I recently looked into winter clothes, and there seems to be a lot of things that are costly because they're good, and things that are costly because they're fashionable. Like, I'm happy to spend $200 on boots that'll last me for many years and keep my feet warm and dry (that's a big upgrade for me here in New England).
But yeah I won't be spending $15 on a blank tshirt anytime soon x)
ooh i like this. I found some jeans that were super nice but $90, it's good to know that is a reasonable cost for jeans! thank you for your perspective
This was definitely a good read :0 I don't have much to add because there's so much but it makes sense to try things on first.
Does it make sense to spend a lot of money on staples that should last a long time, if I don't know much about fabric/clothes? (I.e. clothes might shrink, or i might find I didn't get the right combination of kinds of fits, etc.)
