Which and why? to sweeten the pot - you have $300 per day to spend. This does NOT include shoes. You may shop seven days a week.
Target and Home Depot.

Target and Anne Taylor Loft. Target because they have everything, make-up, shoes, underwear, etc. Anne Taylor because I just love their designs.

Any big department store will do, plenty of options and plenty of things to buy. Since the most expensive department store I shopped at is Nordstrom, that will have to do. I am not a fan of Macy but I am not familiar with higher end stores, so can't choose those. Does the $300 disappears every day or can I save it to make big purchase?


IF I can save it & it goes on for months.. then I will save to buy furniture's from Macy, all matching home items. I never had fully matched housewares set because I buy one thing at a time & eventually can't find the design. I love the Royal Albert tea cup set. that is like $300 there. Spend few days worth of money on home section


Then spend few days in purse & accessory section. The shoes too can eat up lots of money. The jewelry are awesome. I can easily spent $300 on makeup for another day. I would use Nordstrom for new wardrobe. Maybe get a massage and hair cut with the money.

OP says this is for clothing only. So no tea cup sets for you, no furniture, no massages.

Saks and Neiman's, of course! Between the two of them, they have most of the better labels. They're both fashion-forward, and have the better knits - and the natural fibres. Just over 100K ($300 per day) would be about right, actually. In real life, I spend more. But buying off the runway is an ego thing - not a matter of necessity, and I wouldn't suffer at all, just buying OTR.

Nieman Marcus and Macy's. Or maybe Nordy's.

This. You find better tailoring at the higher-end stores. Even if you only shop their sale racks, it's expensive, because it's higher quality; solid-weight fabrics that last, good tailoring, a much bigger selection of natural fibers.

So is there a secret clothing line at Home Depot that I'm missing, or are their paint clothes just that good that people fantasize about owning thousands of dollars worth of white coveralls?

Just curious since every time this type of thread comes up, there are always a few people who choose Home Depot. Nothing against HD! I might choose it too if the game was about buying light fixtures or appliances, but for clothing? It would never even cross my mind as a chocie...
