No.

Depending if I work out in the morning there would be clothing for that [1]. Next come clothing for work [2]. Then come clothing for lounging around the house in [3] OR clothing to go out to dinner in which would definitely be at least a variant of my work clothes (suit) but never the exact same outfit [4], then possibly a night on the town set of clothing [5]. Then sleep, depending on what I feel like wearing [6].

On a bad day I'd say [2], [3], [6] but on a good one it could go the whole gamut. so between 3 and 6 times! Good lord!

Unless I'm exercising, I get dressed in the morning and get undressed at night. That's it. No "home clothes" or "dinner clothes."

So first you go out and have dinner [4] and then you change [5] before hitting the town? Is that because you go to "clubbing" in "guido" clothes that would not be appropriate for dinner?

I mostly use three set os clothes (at least during the week), namely work clothes [1], lounging-around-the-house clothes [2] (interestingly, the lounge suits I use for work and not for lounging-around-the-house), and a last set of clothes which is either casual-walking-the-dogs clothes [3.1] or smarter going-out-dining-and/or-hitting-the-town-(but-no-guido-clubs) clothes [3.2].

That does not include the clothes I go to bed in and the clothes I wake up in. Interestingly, my experience is that I often wake up with the same clothes I went to bed with. I may be missing something.

I have three outfits in a normal day.
1) Get up, throw on some lounge clothes to make coffee, eat breakfast, etc.
2) Shower, groom, and dress properly for the day.
3) Don comfy at home clothes after I get home from work. It's not advisable to cook, or garden, or whatever else, in a suit and tie, as far as I have experienced.

JayJay and epa, I need to get me a dog so I might wear, as you both penned, "walking the dog" clothes, instead of just "looking like a slob" clothes

get up, pretty much stay in yesterdays boxers until I get into the shower.
shower, then get dressed in the clothes for work, unless I excersize before work that day
get home from work, put on sweats and a tee shirt or a sweat shirt, sometimes a robe and sweat pants

during the day, if I excersize, change into relevant excersize clothing

that is pretty much it.


when I lived in warm places, I would change my shirt at lunch

..

4.

1. clothes from previous night (i.e. PJs)
2. work clothes
3. workout clothes or clothes to knock around the house in
4. PJs

The possibility of changing into walking-the-dog clothes twice a day makes your life so much more interesting and opens up many sartorially challenging possibilities. I really recommend it. Now, true, dogs can have a certain impact on your clothing, especially when they come running to happily greet you while you are wearing white or beige pants. In this sense, a smaller dog can be preferable.
