For items that you know you'll want to wear season after season you should always push yourself on the budget because they will last much longer.<BR/>James: I could speak to Patrick Grant all day, he offers so muych insight and a refreshing voice.<BR/>Naboonies: There is so much that I want to learn in terms of simple tailoring. Hopefulyl within the month we will offer some how-to guides, that way we can learn together. Our thirst to consume is hard to quench but I'm trying to get the balance. The answer is to invest more in the pieces that you'll know will last and think a little harder on the more trend led pieces.Style Salvage Stevehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09637953416614454873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178228248113361074.post-22292579825203949202009-03-24T16:07:00.000+00:002009-03-24T16:07:00.000+00:00I can't afford to throw away a shirt just because ...I can't afford to throw away a shirt just because its buttons fall apart, so I resew them by myself. But I don't even know how to shorten my pants.<BR/><BR/> I understand Mr Grant's view on having a quality piece rather than a bunch of cheap clothes. But how does it apply to people like me who can't resist shopping every now and then?Emma Homestay Bandar Tasik Puterihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01080516643056991742noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178228248113361074.post-76153054897374328572009-03-23T23:47:00.000+00:002009-03-23T23:47:00.000+00:00I've enjoyed these two posts immensely, Mr Grant s...I've enjoyed these two posts immensely, Mr Grant speaks a lot of sense. The art of wardrobe is such an appealing idea.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9178228248113361074.post-80012051644309597712009-03-23T22:32:00.000+00:002009-03-23T22:32:00.000+00:00Another exemplary post.

It is just not a case of just presenting items as others do - it is the commentary and analysis that makes it.<BR/><BR/>The idea of building a wardrobe - buying fewer, but better quality items really appeals to me. Its exactly what the man at Crockett and Jones said to me when I bought some chelsea boots there at the end of last year - having bought some cheaper corrected grain ones previously that looked terrible and I'd binned within three months - "a customer said he couldn't really afford to buy cheaper shoes". When it comes to cost per wear, its almost always more economic to buy better quality things.<BR/><BR/>Not that I have the budget to patronise the lovely Mr. Grant unfortunately, but he's absolutely right.Michaelhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04237054249530962840noreply@blogger.com
