I read Mary Hunt's column yesterday about the fashion fast -- she went through her closet and picked out 6 items and wore them for a week. I guess it was to prove a point that we have too many clothes.
She cited some gal (I haven't taken the time to look up the blog) who wore the same dress for a year, just changing the accessories.
Interesting concept, eh?
I'm thinking that if I wore the same thing over and over I'd spend more in laundry than I'd save not buying a few more things.
Guess it's all a matter of priorities, eh?
Fashion Fast?

I think I have about 8 - 10 items that I wear over and over, mixing them up, for the entire season (14 weeks)at my beach job. They get pretty worn by the end of the season; and then I have to revamp for next year's season.
One advantage, summer clothing goes on sale at the end of the season, so I start buying next years beach wardrobe then. I like to stay with classics (white shirts, black capris, etc.) and mix it up with a pop of the coming seasons color to keep me with the fashion trends.
