I love the hunt!&nbsp;I try to control and be strict about my budget! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-884053 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 11:14:34 +0000 Lyn D. 884053@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Me Too!!<br />I enjoy looking, and quite often see something new that I already have in my closet, and I prefer my existing version. This is satisfying indeed!<br />If it is an improvement I might consider buying and recycling the 'older' item, and this way my closet hopefully doesn't become too large. https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-884038 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 10:16:42 +0000 jenanded 884038@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ me too!! I explain it as constantly reconstructing my dynamic me... anyone buy that as an excuse for fun... mixing those colours, the textures... https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883980 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 05:27:41 +0000 Tina 883980@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ What Angie said, except it is not my profession:-) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883938 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 03:31:39 +0000 Jaime 883938@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Looking also makes you appreciate what you have. I am on team hobby and happy with it! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883636 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 00:07:00 +0000 Deborah 883636@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I agree with the others.&nbsp; I am very satisfied with my closet and don't really have any needs but I am always looking but not with the same sense of urgency or want as I used to.&nbsp; I am quite happy to just look and <b>not </b>buy these days.&nbsp; As Angie's says for many of us this is a serious hobby or interest and there is pleasure in looking and considering how things can be worn, what we could add for the coming sesason etc.&nbsp; And of course, you just never know when you are going to come across that special peice (a want not a need)&nbsp;you have been holding in the back of your mind for ages and ages:) https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883629 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 23:53:25 +0000 Mo 883629@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Ah, yes, I'm there with you. &nbsp;I know I don't need more. &nbsp;Heck, I'm barely wearing what I've got with my work uniform eating up most of my dressing time. &nbsp;But I also still like to keep an eye out for new pretty things. &nbsp;I try and stick along Angie's lines of one in one out, so I don't get overwhelmed with too much that doesn't get worn. &nbsp;That's the main reason for 12 for 12 this year. &nbsp;Oh, and trying to upgrade the quality of my closet is another major&nbsp;motivator &nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883403 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:17:05 +0000 Greek Goddess 883403@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ ha ha...you just described me....I have everything I need for our upcoming long summer but I still go and browse in the shops when I have a few minutes spare. I do it because it is fun and I find it relaxing. I don't always buy..in fact, I don't often buy as I am very picky on what I wear...and I wear everything that I buy and all the clothes I own. &nbsp;I like to look good, and as my husband says I don't drink or smoke so I should indulge in the one thing I really enjoy. Bless him! https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883399 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:11:19 +0000 Angie 883399@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Oh! This is so normal, Dana! I LOVE my stuff too! I have everything and need&nbsp; nothing. But I'm always looking at new things because it's fun! Fashion and style is a hobby, (ahem - my profession), and I take great interest in wearing things in new ways - especially with older items. I love shopping! I love fashion. I love style. I love keeping tabs on trends. It's an insatiable part of life. It's like travelling and eating good food - you have so much but I always want more. <br /><br />I do follow the one in one out wardrobe principle because I cannot handle clutter and having too much stuff. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883397 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:10:20 +0000 Kalli 883397@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Well yes, because women like pretty things and it's always good to have more. <br /><br />Things do wear out and need to be replaced, maybe you are looking for the replacement. <br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883395 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:09:22 +0000 Raisin 883395@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I know what you mean. &nbsp;There's not much that I really need on my "needs" list and I do love what's in my closet now. &nbsp;And really, I'd like to spend money elsewhere. &nbsp;I try to stay off the online sites because it's just too tempting. &nbsp;But I spend a lot of time home alone, at night when DH is at work, so it's sort of a relaxing, time waster. &nbsp;I need to find something more meaningful to do.&nbsp; https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883393 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:05:16 +0000 Kristin SF 883393@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I call it "educating my eye". So I am always looking online, even though I've decided I'm done shopping for a while.<br /> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883391 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 20:02:01 +0000 Ingunn 883391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Old habit? It is hard to stop when you're used to do it, I think. Shopping doesn't mean buying, so why not? https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/having-everything---but-still-looking#post-883380 Wed, 20 Mar 2013 19:47:00 +0000 ironkurtin 883380@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ I love my closet.&nbsp; I really do!&nbsp; And I'm on a budget - which is totally OK, because it means what I buy I must LOVE.&nbsp; <br /><br />Really I am feeling quite happy and secure in my wardrobe these days.&nbsp; So why do I keep looking for new things?<br />
