As I am cleaning out my closet, and looking through all the clothing I own, I realize I waste a lot of money of clothes that were cheap in quality that I did not end up wearing much.

Instead of buying 10 pieces of clothing that costs only $15 but might fit weird or color is a bit off, I really should have bought 4 high quality items that were on sale at $40 each (where original price was $100+).

But then fashion is whimsical and so is our shopping habits, and I do need those random “trendy for the moment” $15 pieces of clothing that are fun to wear for a few times.

Still, one of my new year’s resolution is to keep my purchase habits contained in the high quality deal category, and not the “wow, it’s only $4 so I must have it even though I probably would never wear it” bucket.

Quality vs quantity… quality vs quantity… Must keep my brand new elfa closet looking pretty…
