Because of very low income, I have to buy most of my clothes 2nd hand. This is what I am doing at moment as I am losing weight. If you are buying 2nd - hand clothes anyway. Keeping your clothes and recycling them, then pick out a wardrobe for each season from your storage of clothes and buy only what missing.
I down grade clothing into these groups.
Extra Good Wedding, Trip & Party Clothes.
Good City & Day & Trip Clothes.
Good/Medium Local Shopping & Trip Clothes.
Medium Visiting Friends & Local Shopping
Medium/Poor House Clothes.
Poor Working Around House
Very Poor Garden or Painting
Out Rags
This is my down grading strategy.
