So you wake up in the morning and you open your closet. The same old boring mess, right? No fun items to wear. Is it time to do a haul? Instead of being inspired, we go with that safe option that made us feel secure the last time. But what are people going to think if you wear the same outfit or article of clothing? Should you take a risk and wear something else? Maybe it’s time to do a haul, just in case.
These are all thoughts that go through our heads whenever we are in front of our wardrobes. I had these thoughts as well and I can tell you that all of my clients had them in a form or another. At some point, I thought maybe the issue is with our age.
Maybe the older we get, the more secure we feel, the more we enjoy the clothes in our wardrobes. I have clients from different social backgrounds, different countries, and of course different ages.
Trust me when I tell you that we have all faced the same problem: wardrobe boredom is widespread. So how did we get here?

Where does the urge to do a shopping haul come from?
When we feel the urge to do a haul, shop, or change up our fashion style, it’s a sign that something is bothering us. There’s an issue we seek to escape from: it’s either anxiety or boredom. We could implement many tricks to delay the next purchase. But until we realize what’s going on emotionally - what we are actually trying to cover up with another haul or even video haul, we will keep thinking about what to buy to make ourselves happier. This happens even if you are a minimalist. Some trends will get your attention at some point. Or you will randomly buy an article of clothing.
Unfortunately, that little dopamine you get from a new purchase won’t last long enough and you’ll be back to square one.
There is a lot of advice out there on how to deal with wardrobe boredom. And I’ll tell you in a bit why I don’t agree with any of them. Especially with doing a shopping haul. You might have even tried some of these and figured out by yourself why they don’t work.
One of the most common pieces of advice is to check Instagram influencers or blogs for style ideas. See their post and try to copy that.
Or another solution might be thrifting. It’s not that expensive after all and there’s no guilt involved if whatever you buy gets worn just a few times or it doesn’t even fit with what you already have in your closet.
New shoes seem to be another popular solution to wardrobe boredom. Shoes can scale up your outfit and make it feel fresh for a while.
Another very popular solution has nothing to do with clothes. It’s make-up! Experimenting with different lipstick shades or a completely new look is another easy way out of the pesky boredom rut you find yourself in.
If make-up is not your thing, you could maybe go for new accessories. Cheap jewelry can be found everywhere nowadays and if you get the right color and style, your outfits will have that fresh pop again.
Unfortunately, I have to tell you that none of these will work. Wardrobe boredom will be back very soon. And now, with some of this badly placed style advice, your closet will look even more confusing.
I gave this widespread problem a lot of my time and I’ve researched it properly, so you don’t have to. And this is what I’ve found out. It comes down to one important question:
How come what we have is never enough?
The fashion industry is full of smart people that make a lot of money convincing you and me that we need new clothes all the time.
Globally, 73% of women update at least 25% of their wardrobe every three months.
This artificially created need to be on-trend, or to keep buying can be correctly identified if you ask yourself a few simple questions:

Does shopping feed a fantasy you have about yourself?
Or maybe about how life is going to change once you buy that tempting item? If you answered yes, here’s what you can do about it. Try to recognize and appreciate who you are, what you have already accomplished, what you have right now, in real life. Practice gratitude. This will create a sense of well-being and it will make you less likely to subconsciously try to fill an emotional hole with more stuff.
