When (if ever) do you buy the same item in multiple colors / patterns? (I.e. clothing & shoes) For more expensive items I usually get one color and then if I love it regret not getting more colors. For basic shirts I’ve started getting multiple if they’re on sale & fit well...thoughts on doing this for items like dresses? Better to just pick 1 color & get more variety, or stick to the items that fit well & get all colors? Does anyone notice/care if you have the same item in diff colors?

I have 3 pair of the same jeans bc they fit well and I like them. As I get older I realize as much as I like to get dressed and be cute there are certain pieces that I enjoy wearing over again so I buy multiple items. They’re often the same color but I have purchased the same style shirt in several colors.

Are the jeans identical or any variation in the wash / color? & I totally agree, as I get older I realize the value of finding something that fits well, is comfortable, good quality & you actually enjoy wearing. I’ve bought so much stuff that looks cute but for w/e reason never wear it and still have the tags on, whereas other items I wear frequently & think whether I should just get that in more colors at the price of having a more boring / redundant wardrobe lol

I do this with shoes. If I love a pair, I buy the same ones (if I know I’ll ruin them by the end of the season) or the same in a different color

From 22-27 I dated a guy who worked all the time with the hope we would get married. Lots of time spent alone since he was never around on trips and so called vacations. Recently, I broke up with him and just am really feeling like I wasted my twenties. I saw two girls walking down the street yesterday with pink balloons that spelled “23”... what I would give to have not wasted my time with this guy. Has anyone ever gone through this?
