QUIZ: Is your wardrobe recession-proof?

RecessionNow that times are getting tough will your wardrobe stand the test of time? Take our quiz and find out.

 


Last winter you splurged on a pair of boots that are:

Covered with lots of bells and whistles – very 2008
Rather high and very pointy - not that comfortable
Classic black knee-highs



Your winter coat is:

In perfect condition even though it’s a couple of years old
In need of its own makeover, or the rubbish bin
Is in a slightly dated colour but still does the trick when the weather cools



The last pair of jeans you brought were:

High waisted 70’s style that you’re not sure you want to rock again this season
Bleach wash skinny’s great for this winter but…
Dark wash levi skinny’s – perfect



When it comes to those basic essentials – white singlets, leggings, plain tees –how does your wardrobe stack up?

You have a few white singlets & tees and a pair of legging but you always feel like you need more
You tend to wear colours more often than not, but do find you need basics and they are never there
You wear your basics as layering pieces nearly every day



Do you buy accessories, like scarves, beanies and costume jewellery that are seasonal or classic?

Definitely classic, you like it to last to the next season
A mixture of both, you like to be in style but would prefer to wear them again next year
You love to be wearing what is hot now so you tend to spend lots on accessories each season



Do you invest in dresses that have a seasonal print or a simple yet flattering shape?

You love dresses for their versatility, and purchase both seasonal and classic cuts through a season
You always but the look of “now” to keep in style
You’ll buy seasonal prints only if you know you’ll be able to get through the next season with the same dress



Are you an IT bag kinda gal?

Yes for sure! It is the finishing touch of your look
If you love it, you buy it, IT bag or not
Only if it a classic shape and not too bright or in your face
