[quote=Anonymous]Honestly, if you spend zero what are you doing on the Beauty and Fashion page?  This page is full of people who debate whether a $500 or more purse is worth it.  And they are spending zero or $250 a year?  Amazing that they stay the same size year after year and never need to buy a new pair of jeans because the old ones just don't fit right anymore.  Also amazing that their shoes never wear out.

FWIW I am older professional and don't really budget.  I have a stock of clothes bought in the past that I continue wearing.  But each year I find things that no longer fit well or look good anymore and I get rid of those.

This usually happens twice a year, spring and fall.  I then supplement.  I have very definite style tastes based on what looks good on me.  Some years I cannot find those styles and will spend close to zero.  But in years where the styles are plentiful, I stock up and can spend up to $3000, depending on what I find and what needs to be replaced.  Last year's big ticket item was a replacement for my 20 year old winter coat--still very attached but it had become very shabby.
