10 Questions to Ask Yourself Before You Click “Buy Now” Again

Let’s get honest. Online shopping is convenient—but at what cost?

The return rate for apparel online is between 35%–40%, clothing quality has plummeted over the last 25 years, and most of us are buying pieces that we silently know… will never be worn more than once (if at all).

Before you add another item to cart, ask yourself these 10 questions:

1. Will this actually fit me—or am I just hoping it will?

Guessing your size isn’t your fault—inconsistent sizing is a design flaw, not a personal failure. Still, your time and confidence pay the price every time it doesn’t work out.

2. When was the last time I measured myself?

Your body deserves accurate support. Shopping without updated proportions is like driving without a map—you might get there, but it’s going to be stressful.

3. Do I know how to dress for my current proportions?

Most people don’t. It’s not something we were taught. At My Fashion Support®, we build your wardrobe around your unique body—so it always feels like you.

4. Will this piece hold up after more than three washes?

Let’s be real: most clothing today isn’t made to last. The quality has dropped dramatically over the years—and yet prices haven’t. You deserve better fabric, better construction, and better return on your investment.

5. Am I assuming this is “high quality” just because it’s labeled high fashion?

Luxury doesn’t always mean well-made. In fact, many high-end brands use the same manufacturers as fast fashion labels. Don’t let a logo confuse you. “Expensive” and “quality” are not synonyms—and you deserve to know the difference.

6. Am I shopping for my real life or my fantasy life?

Be honest. Are you buying for brunch in Paris or school drop-offs and Zoom calls? We help you style your real life—and make it feel just as elevated.

7. Will I still be excited about this six months from now?

Or will it quietly float to the back of the closet with the tags still on? We help you find pieces that fit your style and your season—so they earn their place on your hanger.

8. Does this color energize me or drain me?

Your closet should lift your mood, not mute it. With our support, you’ll learn which shades speak to your skin tone, energy, and presence.

9. Am I buying this out of stress, shame, or boredom?

Retail therapy feels good—until it doesn’t. If your closet is full but your confidence is low, it’s time to reset with intention.

10. When was the last time I felt confident in what I wore?

If it’s been a while, you’re overdue. You’re not “hard to style.” You’ve just never had the right kind of support.

🎯 Let’s change that.

You don’t have to keep guessing whether you are building a closet or a collection of regrets.. You don’t have to keep settling. And you definitely don’t have to keep wasting money on pieces that don’t fit your body or your energy.
