If you have two of the same you'll already be wearing those two, if you have three, will you get tired of them?<br />If it's 100% cotton denim maybe try warmer water? No dryer! I've never heard of using vinegar that way and I'm not convinced that would make things better, but a little baking soda might. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830666 Fri, 28 Jul 2017 12:45:29 +0000 Laura1975 1830666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>JenniNZ and Jenn, I'm not sure why it ended up on the whiffy side. It's 100% cotton. I think I'll treat the new one like sports kit and wash it as soon as I take it off. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830287 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 17:12:07 +0000 Jenn 1830287@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>My thoughts were along the same lines as Jenni NZ. If you duplicate, you might try to use a different washing strategy on the new one to prevent odor buildup... maybe treating the armpits/neckline with an Oxyclean (or similar) spray before each wash? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830211 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 15:02:07 +0000 Jenni NZ 1830211@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Isn't there a risk that the second one will get whiffy as well? Then you will have 2 whiffy ones you don't want to wear and have to get rid of? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830178 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:19:25 +0000 Laura1975 1830178@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That reply was directed at Sisi. That'll teach me not to refresh the screen before replying!</p> <p>Should I risk both colours? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830173 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:18:00 +0000 Laura1975 1830173@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>That's the thing I'm not sure. I will definitely repurchase the medium blue. That's a first for me. Usually by the time something has worn out I've gone off it anyway. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830172 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:17:33 +0000 Thistle 1830172@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes. You've already proven you'll wear the heck out it. And if it is starting to get stinky, time to duplicate. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830170 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:13:33 +0000 Anonymous 1830170@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Duplicating sounds like a good idea, in the same color you have. You know you like that color. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830164 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:06:51 +0000 gryffin 1830164@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Yes!!&nbsp; but this comes from the princess of duplication.&nbsp; as delurked said, if one is good 8 is better!! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830161 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 14:04:48 +0000 Angie 1830161@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>YES. Duplicate.&nbsp; </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830153 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 13:41:15 +0000 Sisi 1830153@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>If you are sure you will love this top still for long, I vote duplicate. It is so difficult for me to find something that I like/that works well with my wardrobe that I often think that if I will ever find the&nbsp;perfect dress/ tee/ shoes/you name it, I will duplicate!&nbsp;Only thing, I suggest to be&nbsp;careful with the light blue one, are you sure you will like it like the medium blue one? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/to-duplicate-or-not-1#post-1830107 Thu, 27 Jul 2017 11:18:22 +0000 Laura1975 1830107@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hello fabbers! Hope you're all enjoying your anniversary sale shopping.</p> <p>I have a shopping dilemma of my own. I bought a top earlier this year that I am wearing constantly. It's a mid weight, mid blue denim with a tie neck and three quarter sleeves. It can be worn tucked in or out, goes with trousers and skirts and has proven itself to be very versatile. Unfortunately it has begun to whiff! I wash tops after every wear, I've soaked it in vinegar, I've frozen it and all to no avail! </p> <p>I noticed while looking for something similar that it's still available and now comes in a very light denim blue too. </p> <p>With this in mind, do I buy both? </p>
