    There’s a big disconnect between what women like that wear day to day and “outfits”.

    As a dude, they’re the same thing.

    But even women who won’t wear the same “outfit” more than a handful of times still have work/casual clothes that they’ve had for years and constantly rotate.

    For them an “outfit” is something for going out or special occasions.

    In that context, it makes sense. If you’re going out partying like that, people drop one or two hundred on food and drinks. Lots spend a good amount on drugs and cover charges too.

    Dropping $300 on an outfit you’ll wear a handful of times sounds stupid. But not if you’re a woman and someone else pays for everything else for a night. It’s downright frugal even.

    Young men spend a lot of their money trying to attract women, and young women spend a lot of their money trying to attract men.

    They’re just spending it in different ways.

    At least for women they still have something in the morning. I’d hate to think of how much money I blew through in my 20s on overpriced drinks at bars. A closet full of clothes I’d never wear again would at least be something

      $300?! AH!!!

      My wife is the most stylish and well dressed woman I’ve ever been with, and that’s sayin’ something. She doesn’t pay jack for clothes.

      There’s a big disconnect between this post and a real world

      Outfit = clothing. There’s nothing wrong partying the same suit or dress for 10 years
