does anyone else do this? opinions?

Ok so I got this shirt in red and I LOVE it, so I ordered the black one as well. Now I'm thinking of buying the green one too. Does anyone else buy the same piece of clothing if they really like it in different colors or is it just me? Should I buy the third one?

That's really cute! Is it Free People? I've done that with a few shirts (even dresses!). Sometimes the fit/style is soo perfect - you need it in all colors!

I space the time apart between wearing the different colors so that people don't notice though.

Don't buy the third one. The green isn't very nice. It looks a bit faded.

Yes I do this too sometimes. Especially if the fit is good. This shirt is such a bold print that two is enough. Three would be overkill. It is super cute though!

Yes. Why not? I do buy multiple pieces all the time when I find the one I love. Because it may not come around ever again. So I have a spare. For suits, I always buy 2 trousers with 1 jacket.

i do this all the time when i find something i love and if it fits well.
this summer i bought 3 of the same pair of sandals--in diff. colors and multiples of 2 diff. shirts.

What site did you order that from?

And I definitely have things in multiple colors.

girliceclimber · Aug 11th, 2008, 10:15 PM

I have things in multiple colors, but I try to keep this to basic styles/solid colors so it's not obvious I'm doubling up on stuff! This is a cute shirt, but the pattern is so distinctive that I would stick to only red and black.

talexs · Aug 12th, 2008, 01:31 AM

I do this all of the time, but find that I never wear the other ones I buy.

missmustard · Aug 12th, 2008, 01:33 AM

Oh yeah, all the time! I figure if it's something I really like and fits well, I should get more.

candypants1100 · Aug 12th, 2008, 01:39 AM

yes i do it! i love that shirt

brigadeiro · Aug 12th, 2008, 07:39 AM

I do (buy multiples of clothing)

Most recently I bought 2 coats (one black, one grey)

Snowqueen! · Aug 12th, 2008, 09:01 AM

I do buy duplicates, but never of anything this memorable.

For example, I will buy the same cashmere v-neck in a few colors if I love the fit, or the buy two of the same white shirt.

tresjoliex · Aug 12th, 2008, 09:21 AM

No, I never buy duplicates.

YES! I get major guilt trips over it too!
