Closet Consumption: Thursday 2 August, 2012

Wearing today:

Pretty much I am wearing the same thing as I started off wearing on Tuesday.  Does that sound slack?  Maybe!  I had a conference to go to and I knew that I would be sitting around for most of the day so I needed something comfortable but that also looked pretty work appropriate.

You can see the details of what I was wearing in Tuesday's post over here.

It does make me think about how often we wear things and also how we feel about wearing things (or being seen in clothing) more than once.  Obviously many of my items are iconic and noticeable.  They aren't the average black dress that you may not be able to tell if it has been worn constantly.  I don't have a problem with wearing my dresses over and over.  They feel like an old friend that I keep visiting.

Potentially celebrities ideas of not being seen in the same thing more than once has had a roll on effect in the way us as consumers buy.  This is what may of lead to the ideas of disposable fashion.

I'm sure that this will come up over and over again...
