Many people feel guilty and stupid about their shopping habits during the boom according to a recent report from PricewaterhouseCoopers.  I have found this more and more over that past 18 months or so with many women comfirming what we knew already – they are wearing 20% of their wardrobe 80% of the time having over indulged hugely during the boom.  We’ve all made mistakes, but the scale of the spending was pretty amazing.  Shoppers are becoming a lot more savvy with the recession bringing about a new way of shopping with many of these changes likely to be permanent.  One of the most interesting findings was that price is no indicator of quality.    According to a variety of tests carried out by the company, often the cheaper items tested were the better quality.  If you would like some help or guidance on where to start with your wardrobe weeding or smart shopping, or to hear more about ‘Recession Proof your wardrobe’ programmes, contact us on  frances@imagematters.ie
