How of then do you change your clothes?
Comments

I change underwear, socks/tights, work shirts/tops every day.
Work trousers, jumpers/cardigans that I wear over work shirts - I get 2-3 days out of those.
Bras - I'm pretty bad at not keeping track of how often I wash my bras
I don't wear one for a few days in a row and then throw it in the wash, I wear different ones every day depending on what I'm wearing. I probably wash them after about 4/5 wears.
Work skirts/dresses - I wash them when they're stained, they don't get smelly!
Jeans - because I only wear jeans at the weekends or some evenings, I honestly can get weeks out of them. They don't tend to get stinky, again I probably only wash them when they're stained
I shower every day, I wear deodorant and clean underwear, and I do always give clothes a sniff if in doubt!0 -

They must stand up on their own - if you whistle for them in the morning they probably put themselves on.
Well I have to wear trousers to work, then I come home and stick shorts on for a run and then I put my jeans on. At the weekends I have work clothes during the day I wear so really, evenings and sundays are the only times I wear my jeans. I get well over a week out of them. probably closer to two or three. Maybe more.0 -

Not at all, I would wear them everyday of the week at work and going around/out at weekends and they are fine for much more than a week imo. Things don't automatically get dirty and start smelling after a few wears. Some people are obviously very ocd about changing clothes constantly.
As others have said its also bad for jeans to wash them often.0 -
Same for boxers, socks when they can stand up on their own on the floor, or the dog runs away or pisses on them.RidleyRider wrote: »4 days out of boxers. Front, back them inside out and front and back again :pac: socks only 2 days

When I'm going to bed at night, my clothes from that day go in the laundry basket, then in the morning I take a shower and put on fresh clothes. Who the hell takes a shower and then puts on yesterday's sweaty clothes?
When you feel fresh you look fresh, and often times when I get home in the evening I'd have to go out again so I take a shower and put on fresh clothes again and the clothes go in the laundry basket.Your Mammy taught you well.:)
Where do you find the time to do all that washing and ironing? It wouldn't be your mammy now would it?0 -

My mam taught me fannyadams tbh, lol, only that a school uniform when it's not washed all week can stink like nobody's business, so when I moved out of home at 16, I used send my uniforms (I was also working in supermacs at the time as well as still attending school) and all the rest of my clothes down to the launderette once a week.
20 years later I'm still doing it the very same way- the launderette guy collects the clothes, towels,bed sheets, etc in the evening, drops them back the next day, job done!

I thought launderettes only existed in Eastenders.0 -

It's all in your head along with the others who think its some crime to put back on clothes you have already worn. As I said before there is no reason not to get 2 days out of shirts and t-shirs and weeks out of jeans and trousers unless you are working in a physically demanding job. It's bad for the clothes if nothing else to be washing so often, if its not dirty/doesn't smell there is no need to wash it. Wearing every shirt for two days halfs the number of washes you have to do.
I'd also get a good few days out of a towel etc none of this straight into the laundry lark.0 -

Trust me, it's not all in my head, as some posters pointed out earlier, I do indeed sweat like a mongoose! :pac:
It's not bad enough that I actually need botox injections or anything (I investigated the options), but it IS for me at least an inconvenience, especially if a room is any way warm or it's a hot day- my shirt can get stuck to my back with the sweat!
I don't actually work in a physically demanding job either, just a five minute walk to get the bus this morning had me pumping sweat, got home this afternoon and changed my clothes because I've to sit in a warm lecture theatre later on for three hours, doing an exam... Sure for men just doesn't cut it, they don't make mongoose strength anti-perspirant! :pac:0 -

Don't be ridiculous, you can get ages out of a clean t-shirt as long as you're not dancing or moving furniture in it. Change it when it smells.
It was worse in college of course, for socks and jocks you just threw them at the wall and wear them again if they didn't stick. 0
