How many days in a row can you wear the same outfit in a week.

Note: This isn't re-wearing. It's having several of the same shirt and an effective laundry schedule.

I know someone that wore black jeans, black t shirt and black shoes every day to work. He said he had a few pairs if black Jean's and bought 7 new black shirts every season.... seemed incredibly efficient to me!

I had 20 of the exact same shirt. Wore them every day for 3 years straight before anyone else said anything.

But I'm a dude. Maybe people do the care what guys wear.

Oh, I remember that lady that had the same outfit for 3 years, she got a lot of press for it. It sounds a little boring. But efficient.

I have worked with literally ten people at different places who took this approach. I knew three guys at the last place who wore all black t shirt jeans and vans every single day. The President had a weekly outfit rotation that was the same every week. I don’t think anyone cares. Just wash it.

Funny now that I think of it, I’ve never known a woman who went this route

like

Uniforms are fun. But I kinda feel like they are impractical sometimes, depending on the weather

I’m a woman and I rotate the same 8-10 pieces over and over again. No one notices, if anything I get compliments sometimes as if they are new. As long as you’re clean and presentable you are fine.

I’m married, and one of my coworkers flirts with me. Nothing super overt, but definitely not professional. We’re good friends and work together constantly because we’re on the same client, so I don’t want to make it awkward. Do I just do nothing and let it go? It is mostly just odd I’m not super offended, but I’m also clearly uninterested!
