Buying off Season: Pros & Cons

October 10, 2019

Last month I went on a short vacation to Chicago. That’s right, Chicago in March-just days after that huge cold front that went through that area. From Texas… from warm 87 degree days to highs in the low 40’s, which is basically winter weather in Austin, and this was just days into the start of Spring.

Now I don’t know many people who don’t buy at least a few outfits for an upcoming trip and I’m no different, it’s part of the excitement! But this time around the shopping experience was a little off, when I should be stocking up on the latest Spring items I instead was looking for puffer coats and chunky knit sweaters, it was depressing. The only saving grace was that I was in fact, buying off season which meant the pieces I was looking at were on sale! That got me rationalizing with myself and then thinking up this pro’s and con’s list of buying off season.

Pros of buying off season:
