Don't You Hate Wasting An Outfit ?

This quote is so me ! The thought of letting an outfit go to waste at an occasion that doesn't warrant it - is just frustrating ! That means that particular item of clothing / combination of clothing gets put into the back of my closest for at least a few weeks (if not months as has been in the case with some of my outfits).

I'm the type of person who doesn't really like to repeat my outfits - particularly my evening wear. This stems from the fact that I'm labelled 'paparazzi / paparazzo' by those nearest to me and tend to upload at least 75 to 100 photos from every day / night out. This means that my 'outfit' has been seen by pretty much everyone I know - and this lil' diva isn't about to be caught in the same outfit twice with the same crowd of people (yes I'm that finicky about repeating my clothes) and within a time frame of 3 months. That's the minimum break any outfit needs if one socializes on the levels that I do.

I reckon most of the women reading this post will agree with me on the above quote. Don't get me wrong - I have no qualms repeating my regular day-to-day attire; it's all my party attire that I get paranoid over. What about you ? Have you ever worried about wasting an outfit ? Gents - I'm sure it may have crossed your mind at some stage. Thoughts ?

Nope, I have to say the thought has never occurred to me. Interesting that it's high on the agenda for a lot of women, maybe I am the odd one? Thanks for sharing

Nope you're not odd at all. I have quite a few friends who have never given it such thought. For me, I suppose it's to do with my lifestyle and the fact that I'm out and 'seen' quite a fair amount so I personally prefer not to repeat my special outfits.
Thanks for stopping by and good luck on the challenge

Haha! I love your world view! What do you do that sees you post so many photos per night? It sounds interesting and fun. Thank you for sharing. I love the lighter side of life. I found you on UBC.

I'm an events & wedding planner and when I'm not working - I'm out socializing / networking at parties / events - totally works for me since I'm a bit of a social butterfly haha. Glad to have found you too - sent you an FB message regarding the plugin you asked about.

OMG! I feel the SAME WAY! Especially about the evening wear and sometimes even the daytime, depends on what I've worn something to. Like lunch dates are definitely "no repeats" and going out at night, definitely "no repeats" and for exactly the same reason, photos, photos, photos. Sadly, I'm a 50 year old woman who feels this way but hey, some habits are just too damn hard to break!
Stopping by from the UBC on FB and now I'm going to stalk you, okay follow you! ;) Love your blog and I'm so glad I stopped by!

I know there's a sisterhood out there that agrees on this hehe !
Age is just a number - and I'm pretty sure I'm going to be doing the same even when I have grand kids (far fetched thinking for someone who isn't even married yet haha)
Aww you can stalk me all you want oops I mean follow me haha So glad you stopped by and shared your thoughts :)

I know I thought that a few times in my single days. The nights we went out and nobody was out anywhere...seemed such a waste. Then the nights when you didn't try all that hard because you figured nobody would be out...those were the times that you ran into everyone!

And god forbid if one of those dresses are to be clicked for facebook pictures! I would then over think to the extent of exhaustion :)
