How important to you is the way you dress? Is it a priority to look perfect, or are you fine being well dressed? Do you dress the way you do as an expression of your interests and personality or out a necessity to be dressed? Do you find yourself establishing a budget for clothing expenditures or is it something you don't feel the need to limit? Is clothing something that fits into your lifestyle, or is larger than that. What percentage of your resources (time,money,et cetera) are consumed by your need/interest in your personal appearance?
I don't have a written established budget, but I would sayonly a small portion of my finances go towards clothing. It is an interest, but not anything I am invested enough into at this point to call a hobby. Financially I spend 2-6 percent of my monthly income on clothing/shoes/accesories . I usually have so little to spend, I find it difficult to save up larger purchases because I have numerous other interests vying for my time and attention/resources. I have found that often times 'window shopping' and surfing various blogs/forums fulfills my need for things clothing related. I spend far more time consuming information than actual product. I would say 7-12 percent of my resources are invested in my interest in clothing.
what about you guys?
btw, I am not in school, or doing research for anything other than my curiosity.
