Default eek!!! bought too many shirts! wohooo!

So im a little excited

I offically start my jd/mba program in one week and i decided i needed some new colored shirts...went shopping and i came home with 6 lacoste shirts

i had NO idea how comfy they are!!!! i have a couple lacoste halters and they are fine and all but the polos!! OMG i was in love!! haha

But now i think im a little crazy..because i have the same polo...just six totally different colors (bright green, lime green, bright blue, light blue, bright pink, light pink...)

Actually, I do the same thing sometimes. In fact, there was a recent thread about ladies buying more than one pair of the same jeans.

Have fun in your new colorful tops!

Congrats!! Yup, you're not alone. I do this all the time when it's a style that I love and looks good on me. And this is not just clothes, it's perfumes, makeup, etc etc etc. I think we have a problem! LOL

Personally, I've never bought anything similar more than 2. However, if you like the style and that's what you wear most of the time, why not?

haha you're just being preppy. having lacoste polos in multiple colors is fine since they're pretty classic. just don't wear them consecutively for 6 days to school or people will think of you as that girl who only wears lacoste polos.

I also buy multiples of things that I really like. I just bought 6 shirts from target that were on clearance for $2.42. They were plain t shirts so I mean I couldn't pass that up. They only had a few colors I liked or they didn't have my size (mediums go really fast). Otherwise I would have bought more.

But, I have also bought multiples for pants and other things. It is great because you always have it "in stock" in your closet. I love polos and cable knit sweaters so I buy multiples of that all the time. I guess it depends on what you like and how it fits.

yup! i have an extensive collection of ralph lauren polos...definitely not odd to buy multiples of the same style, especially a staple like polos!!

If I find a style of basic shirt I really, really like and that flatters me, I usually get it in all of the colors I like if I can afford to at the time. I can't tell you how many times in the past I regretted not getting an item in more colors or went back to the store the next weekend to buy that other color, only to find them all sold out in my size.

I agree with azaelea that if you don't wear them all consecutively or around the same time period it should be fine. I rotate my stuff pretty good to where I'll get people ask "oh is that new?" when I am wearing a shirt I've had for two years, just haven't worn that often. You can also always pair them with different bottoms and accessories to make them look even more different.
