After an amazing clothes shopping spree !!
Jump to: Newest in thread
Yesterday I recieved my first introductory Temu clothes shopping spree ..
Well needed but i had to reluctantly throw out a fair few old tops , some of which were shamefully over 10 years old ..
So what is your oldest surviving item of clothing and are you emotionally attached to it ??  |

I'm expecting my first Temu parcel this week but no clothing sadly. What did you get?
My oldest item is the only skirt I own, I bought it 28 years ago in Debenhams  |

I have a few dresses that are probably close to 20 years old I'll never get into them but I can't throw them away because they are just too pretty, i have my 1st handbag I bought with my 1st wage packet too again over 20 years old, I was so proud of being independent and that was my treat, it'll be kept forever.
(I have handbag issues)

I got a buy 6 get 6 free opening offer and was amazed it all arrived on time and in full .. And every single item is here and as ordered .. Really happy .. 12 items for £57
And 28 years old defeats me by many years  |

Meh. I'm still younger than you.
I have a shirt from that world cup as well. And a Charlton Athletic shirt from 1998. 99. 97. The late 90s.
And a t-shirt from 1994. So it's maybe 10 years old. |

None of my clothes are classed as "old", I get bored too quickly and replace them and donate stuff to the charity shops all the time.
Oldest 3 items in my wardrobe are my kids 1st outfits home from the hospital that I've kept.
So 14 years,12 years and 5 years old.  |

I have a couple of shirts which must be about 25 yes old, they aren't in that bad a condition and I do wear them still, but I'm not emotionally attached to them |

"I have a skirt I used to wear when I was 16, I never threw it away as I really like it and hoped one day it would fit again!
That's a fair while ago tbf "
29 years is a long time, the skirt fitted me again this year too  |

I’ve got quite a few things that have aged well but I am bad for shopping! I’m definitely the female in this relationship when it comes to shopping for clothes

Got a pair of boots which I'm sure my mum bought me in 1999. Definitely got a jumper and body warmer I bought at uni, some 21 years ago now.
Even older, I've got a vintage 1930s morning suit which was bespoke for someone my size, but I obviously didn't buy that from new!! I love it, but don't get much chance to wear it! |
