Do You Keep Spending Money On A New Closet During Your Transition Weight Loss?

I am in between my starting weight and my goal weight. I've lost a lot of weight so far and my clothes feel and look loose; in fact, I look a little like I am rocking the baggy look even though that's not the look I want to sport. But in any case, do you keep buying a new set of new clothes as you lose the weight or do you wear sweatpant-like clothing in different sizes as you lose the weight until you reach your goal weight?

For me, in the middle. I'm not doing sweatpants, but I am buying pieces that have give in them and will fit for a good couple sizes. I avoid linen and non-stretch denim, and go for things with some stretch that will still flatter when I'm at the bigger end of their wearable scale, but will shrink with me as I lose.

I hate clothes shopping, and I hate spending money on stuff I'm not going to wear for long. I confess, I also do some fast fashion while I'm in this interim period. Op shops can also be good for some people, though I find them hit and miss because I hate shopping, so the amount of effort it takes to find things I like is too much.

Look into capsule wardrobes, it's a method of buying a few pieces that compliment each other and that can be mixed and matched to create the illusion of a much more varied selection.

For me: minimal wardrobe of cheap but decent looking clothes, either fast fashion or second-hand, which I then donated once they got too big.
It was during lockdown/covid mostly, so I had the advantage of not needing a huge wardrobe since I was working from home mostly.
