COST-PER- WEAR: SAVE MONEY ON FASHION

FOUNTAIN OF 30 FASHION

“”

Cost-per-wear is a simple formula that will keep you on track when you make your shopping decisions. Before you go on your next shopping excursion, take a few moments to make a plan.

Take the total cost of an item and divide it by how many times you will wear it. When you use this formula you can find out how much you are spending on fashion.

What is  Cost-Per-Wear?

You may be quite surprised that you are paying too much on inexpensive fashion that you don't wear alot.

Low Priced Fashion

On the flipo side, you may actually get more wear out of more expensive fashion because it is of higher quality.

High Priced Fashion

I'd wear the $695 Jacket 40 times a year but may actually wear the less expensive one for $199 jacket 50 times per year.

Must-Haves vs Wants:  The The Black Blazer

I would wear the Tom Ford blouse 2 times a month for the next 2 years or 48 times. But I would wear the less expensive blouse less. I'd wear it once a month in the next 2 years or 24 times.

Must-Haves vs Wants:  The Silk Blouse

The Roger Vivier shoes are amazing but cost $1,625. I would wear them alot, at least 60 times. I'd wear the less expensive ($199 pair) 60 times too, so it looks like I’m getting the Bass loafers!

Must-Haves vs Wants:  The Black Embellished Loafers

WILL YOU  USE THE COST  PER WEAR FORMULA WHEN YOU SHOP?
