Can I quadruplicate this top?

I'm loving these two knit tops I just bought during NAS because they are:

http://shop.nordstrom.com/s/cl.....op/3208305

1) Really figure flattering. No, really figure flattering.
2) Casual enough for work, so long as I tone down the figure flattery with a cardigan on top.
3) Dressy enough for going out to dinner, etc, without being overdressed for my social circle.
4) Comfortable enough to lounge in,so I don't need to change the instant I get home, as I would with woven tops.

I'm consciously spacing out how often I wear them, "saving" them for specific days of the week.

So can I buy two more?

I have a bad habit of buying the same item in multiple colors, which I'm working on curing. Do the different prints/colors/awesome properties justify owning four of the same distinctive style?

Thanks for answering my silly shopping queries.

They really are spectacular tops and each one looks so different from the other. I'd say duplicate, but I am also a duplicater.

Finding items that fit and flatter completely isn't easy. I duplicate shamelessly when I find something that really, really works for me.

Yes, if you have found something you LOVE then get at least one more. If after one more, you still crave another then get a fourth! (Or buy the third and fourth, but wait a month to start using the last one.)

Sometimes we don't need the variety of wildly different looks each day, but thrive on the tried/true formulas that work for us

Just remember that Angie herself bought the same AT top in three colors recently and they're workhorses for her. If the colors for the two additional tops will work for you, I say go for it!

I would hesitate to do so, because in the past when I have done something like that, I invariable end up liking one or two of them much better than the others and then the others do not get worn.

Go for it! I don't think of this piece as multiples because they each have a completely different print in different colors. I think the same cut is much more noticeable in multiples that are solid colors in the same color family. I have many, many dresses that are technically the same cut, but no one would ever see them as duplicates because of the prints.
