I love wearing the same clothes every day. They're clean and everything, I wash them regularly. I wear one outfit for a couple of weeks if possible. If not possible, I cycle through the same three or four outfits. This makes it difficult to be present among fashionable people because they will notice and talk among themselves. My outfits look normal, jeans t-shirts and sweaters. It's a source of secret stress for me when anyone comments despite the fact no one knows any good reason why people must wear a lot of different outfits. Work is absolute hell because of the need to wear different clothes each day. One job I had everyone had to wear the same identical white factory garments and my stress level went way down from that alone. Every worker was given three garments and no one noticed that I always wore only the same one. When I have to go out to social functions I try to always keep my jacket on, saying I'm cold, because it hides what I'm really wearing and no one expects you to change your jacket all the time. Wearing the same jacket daily is okay but wearing the same sweater is not. This illogical and mysterious rule is responsible for many problems and has no known redeeming features.

I have 3-4 different suits which I wear, depending which day of the week it is. Always the same.

Of course the clothes are clean, but I bet people think it‘s weird.

I do this, sort of. It's hard for to find clothes I don't find too ugly, too expensive, or too uncomfortable to wear.. When I do, I tend to buy the same shirt or whatever in all the different colors they have that I like. That way, I can wear the same thing all week, if I want to, but since the color changes it seems to fall with the realm of acceptable behavior.

I like to wear blue jeans and grey t-shirts more than anything else. I hate buying new clothes. I like to keep the same ones in a short rotation.

Same thing. I own 12 of the same grey t-shirt and maybe 10 pairs of the same jeans.

I had a job that required casual business dress and bought 6 pairs of dress pants in the same style.

Anytime Haines changes their underwear or sock style, I have to throw all my old ones out and totally switch over.

And shoes! I wear through 5 or so pairs a year, and I stock up before the current year's style goes off the market to make it last for two.

As long as it's not touching me, it's a little better. Sweaters are basically interchangeable, but I tend to go through phases. I'll go all winter wearing one of three sweaters.

I wear dirty pants for sometimes weeks at a time because when I wake up and work on my car my pants are instantly dirty anyways. Shirts I try to rotate at least every 2-3 days but it's still the same styles of shirts.

My ex's nephew drew a picture of a closet full of camo pants and black shirts and dedicated it to me if that tells you anything about how much my clothing changes.

Underwear has to be consistent -- and present! (I *cannot* go without an undershirt no matter what the weather.) I tend to get stuck in ruts in which I do wear the same clothes -- not every day, but two different outfits every other day? Something like that? I'm sure my co-workers are none too impressed.

One outfit lasts me for a week, mondays are "change of clothes" days. Jeans, t-shirts and the same jacket I've had since I was 16. Shoes last me long aswell, I bought a new only 2 years ago, the pair before lasted me through most of highschool.

Yes I do this.

And when I buy clothes, which is rare, I like to buy three or four of the same item, several pairs of the same shoes etc. If these identical items of clothes comes in different colours I may reluctantly buy more than one colour because I know other people expect it and it's bad enough I'm wearing the same things every day. But actually I want to just get them all in one colour. I am nearly always in all blue, although I'd prefer to be in green, but items I like in green are rarer, for some reason.

I buy several pairs of shoes or several of the same item of clothing partly because I if have found something I like I don't want to go through the shopping experience again in the future - so I buy several and when one wears out I have it's 'clone' ready.

I don't see a problem with that. A good outfit is a good outfit. It takes some women so long to decide what to wear you would think they'd just stick with it when the found it instead of put themselves through all of that again the next day, but for some reason they don't.

I've got 8 pairs of jeans, 30+ band t-shirts, 8 track jackets, 5 hoodies, more jackets, etc. Oh and 1 pair of shorts for those extremely hot days.

I style my hair the same way everyday - like I just got out of bed and walked into 170km/h winds.

And I either wear my MBT shoes or my red Macbeths.

What I wear has actually impacted on my personality. When I try to look more 'girly' I just don't feel right. And that's just not the feeling of ants running up my arms from little tight cardigans.

I've got TONS of clothes because my mom loves to buy clothes, but I never wear them. I have one section which is my 'weekend' section, where I keep what I wear on weekends, and during the week, I have one pair of pants for everyday of the week, and the blouses that go with them. On Monday, I wear black pants with a green blouse, Tuesday, brown with a brown and black blouse, Wednesday, stripped with a colorful blouse, Thursday again brown with a red blouse, and Friday again black with a black and green blouse. My mom always complains I look like a photograph.
