Who has nicer clothes...You or your kids??

[jldriscoll]

As I look at my dds new school clothes and shoes, I got to thinking.....when did I stop getting new school clothes and when was the last time I got even 1 new outfit ????

My kids are definately better dressed!

I have to agree, my son has more clothes than he knows what to do with. But I suppose it is my own fault because I am the one who can't resist buying them for him.

I can definately say both my kids are better dressed than me. They always have new clothes to wear . . .

My DH always says why don't you go buy some new things if you want . . .I guess its been awhile since I got some new clothes for him to say that.

 

[jldriscoll]

I agree, it's not my kids fault....I can never resist!!!

 

[janette]

My kids. I hate to buy clothes for me.

I'm laughing over here 'cause you reminded me of the time about 2 years ago when my DH dragged all of us to the mall and shopped for clothes for ME!!! He picked out a couple of outfits for me to wear when we were going out to dinner together. THIS IS A MAN WHO HATES TO SHOP!!!!

I think he was pretty desperate to spruce me up before taking me out

I think this goes without saying

No doubt...the kids! I guess its more fun to buy clothes for them, and I HATE trying on clothes! It would be better if they would quit making everything SMALLER!

I can answer this one for my mom...I do. But that is only because she doesn't like to shop for clothes...or so she says. I honestly think she does, because when she does get new clothes she is happy lol.

My kids do. Not only do I buy all the cute outfits I see, so do both the grandparents!

But I do have better clothes than DH. He absolutly HATES clothes shopping and he has had all the same clothes that he had when we first met...although since we got married they have gotten a little tighter around the waist. People buy him clothes for his birthday and stuff, but that doesn't matter to him. He doesn't seem to like change and he has a ton of new clothes in the back of his closet that he doesn't even wear!

I hate to shop for clothes no matter what size I am at the time. My dream is to open my closet door and find lots of new clothes there that all fit and look nice.

DS gets plenty of new things but really couldn't care less. DH is like that too in fact! I buy DH giftcards to force him to buy himself new things.

We're just not into clothes. Well, except shoes. Those aren't really clothes, are they?

 

[EdiePA]

as a single mom, on a very tight budget, every extra $ for clothing goes to my sons. Right now I have $130 for school shopping -- and that will probably only buy a pair of pants and size 14 sneakers. Ugh!

I basically only replace my work clothes as they get worn out.

Most definetly my kids!!!!!!

 

[Boots]

Actually now that my children are grown I think we are a three way tie!!!

 

[glo]

Definitely my kids no question about it!!! They get brand clothes and I get Walmart and Target if I am lucky!!!

 

[tnkrbell]

I LOVE to shop!!! I would have to say my whole family usually dresses pretty good!!

 

[jldriscoll]

tnkrbell and Boots, it is so nice to hear some women out there are gettin' the good stuff!

There's hope for the rest of us!!

 

[A kid at heart]

Definitely the kids! I refuse to buy myself anyting until I lose some more weight! THen I'll have a reason to buy myself clothes!

 

[Lars624]

Definately my kids. I always figure that they & DH are going to school & work so it's more important to me for them to look good. I ama Target clearance rack-aholic! A couple years ago my DH handed me some $ and said "Please go shopping and buy yourself some clothes made out of anything except sweatshirt material!" I don't think I dress badly, I just go for comfy on an everyday basis. When we go out I look a little better (I hope)

 

[jldriscoll]

With the number of trips you make to the mall with those kids Lars I would imagine they are well dressed!!LOL

I'm teaching Paige to hunt out the clearance racks....she was almost as thrilled as I was when we found a shirt for $3 last week!!! LOL
