Decide how much you will spend each week and spend a little less than that, slowly over 3 months you will reduce your expenses. Buy clothes and wash them after 2-3 uses unless you live in super dirty/dusty/warm area. This will prolong clothes life significantly and added advantage is they come back in fashion after a while. I have a shorts which I use still after 10 years.
I stopped washing my t-shirts after a single use (unless visibly dirty, smelly, etc) and the lifespan difference is immense. Also drying clothes in a drying rack instead of in the machine makes a massive difference in durability.
Why would washing my clothes more often prolong their life?
Do you wear your clothes more than three times without washing them currently?
Yes, I wash my clothes when they are dirty, greasy or smelly. Do people wash all their clothes after just one day of wearing?
Yes. They often get smelly after one day depending on what you do. Sure blue jeans or an outer jacket can be good for a few casual wears but basically everything else is daily washed so coworkers don't need to suffer the smell
