The combination of social media, magazines and peer influences are some of the factors which compel us to purchase a completely new wardrobe every single season of every single year. But who’s complaining? Only your wallet. Aside from recycling pieces from the previous season, there are just some pieces that appear to be so absolutely irresistible. And if you fall under this trap of purchasing a new wardrobe every season of every year, think twice about whether you’re purchasing trending items or classic, tailored items – this will guide you as you’re making your purchases for the upcoming warmer weather.
