I Tracked Every Clothing Purchase for 4 Years — Here’s What Actually Lasts

For the last 4 years, I have tracked every clothing purchase I have made. I originally started doing it for fun because I wanted to understand my shopping habits - it felt like I was always buying stuff and giving things away. And honestly, I've found that not only do I shop a lot, but so much of what I have bought is no longer in my closet. It hasn't been great for my bank account, and I'm almost certain some of the stuff I've given away has ended up in a landfill which sucks. On the bright side, tracking what I've bought and given away has taught me some really clear lessons about what makes a piece last in my wardrobe. And so I hope that some of these tips will help you with your own shopping habits. ❤️ Recap of the questions I now ask myself before I buy anything: Does it fit my current body exactly how I want it Does the fabric feel sturdy and do I think it will wash well? Can I wear this with other things in my wardrobe and how will I actually style it? Have I decluttered something like this before? Do I already have something similar in my wardorbe? Would I still want this if it wasn’t cheap How does it make me feel when I wear it? Will I still want this one month from today? ______________________________________________ ➤ Other places you can find me ☺ TikTok: @sandras_space instagram: @sandras_space If you would like to work with me, please drop me an email on [email protected]
