Of course/Unfortunalty, not every piece of clothing we buy can be such a steal. Heres how to figure out if something is truly worth purchasing. Commit this shit to memory:
FierceWithAHighWaist's Fashion E-Clothes-Sion:
PRICE / COMFORT NUMBER = TOTAL USE GOAL
PRICE: Determine the price of your item.
COMFORT NUMBER: Your "Comfort Number" is a dollar amount you feel comfotable spending on clothing/shoes/accessories on a daily/regular basis. Your number will depend on how important fashion/shopping is to you, combined with your budget/income & lifestyle. Everyones number will be different based on these factors. My "comfort Number" is $10 - even tho I am obsessed with shopping & fashion, Imma cheap bitch so that number works for me.
TOTAL USE GOAL: the number of times you willl need to wear your purchase to make it worthwhile.
Heres an example of the Fashion E-Clothes-Sion for the H&M blouse Im wearing in the above photos:
ITEM COST: $40.00
COMFORT NUMBER: $10.00
ITEM COST / COMFORT NUMBER = TOTAL USE GOAL
therefore, TOTAL USE GOAL = 4
This means ideally I will have to wear this blouse 4 times for it to be a worthwhile purchase in my books.
If I want to indulge in something a bit more expensive, like lets say a pair of J-Brand wide-leg flares, the Fashion E-Clothes-Sion would work like this:
ITEM COST: $300
COMFORT NUMBER: $10
TOTAL USE GOAL: 30
Meaning ideally, I will have to wear my new jeans 30 times for them to be worth the money spent. Thats A LOT of wide-leg.
Im pretty much the Einstein of fashion. E=MC HIGH-WAIST.
