How do I tell one of my friends she is cheap without being offensive or an ass?
Kay guys well here is the story:
My uni friend from London pretty much alternates between 1-2 outfits a week. We had a uni party last Friday and she was wearing what she usually wears when we are chilling in the lounge at uni.
She is honestly a very nice girl and is also really friendly. I just do not like the fact that she is a bit cheap. My other friends and I were pretty much all dressed up at the party, and then she came in looking cheap. I complimented one of my other friends on the nice dress she was wearing, and my English friend gave me a weird stare.
I want to tell her if she is alright without coming across as an ass, or if she needs help picking out clothes, idk. I just do not know how to do it. I am afraid our friendship will break because she probably thought I did not care how cheap she looked at first.
Not exactly asking her to look like Kate Middleton or anything, but can she at least not look depressing. Being from London and all I thought she would have had some nice clothes to bring over here. Seeing her with the same thing on is a bit irritating.

Maybe you should just let her be herself. Don't make her pretend to give a shit about clothing if she doesn't give a shit about clothing.

1 ReplyIf it concerns you what other people wear, that's your problem. You will come off as a jerk no matter how you say it.

"Oh hey friend, I hear there's a sale at Kohl's ya know?" Wink wink, nudge nudge. I really don't think it's an issue tho.

You want to be as discreet as possible in this situation. Buy out the entire Macy's clothing line and mail it to her doorstep.

Boo Hoo someone doesn't dress in a way you want them to. OP is a fag.

4 Replieslol It's her life. She can dress however the Hell she wants. If you don't like it, find a new friend and het her live how she wants to. Seriously, of all the things you care about, you worry about clothing styles somebody else is wearing?

6 RepliesHas it occurred to you that she might not be able to afford more clothes? And my word you're an asshole if you think less of her for the fact she doesn't own more clothes, take her shopping or give her a gift card, sheesh.

1 Replyuntil she tells you that you sound like a pretentious knob feel free to keep your opinions to yourself.

I usually change my clothes once every half week in winter if I don't do any physical activity in them. When I boarded in high school there were people who would wear the same uniform for weeks on end. I don't see what the problem as long as they have acceptable hygiene levels.

1)Wait for her birthday, then give her several shirts/dresses, maybe a pair or two of jeans. 2)Tell her that as her friend, you think she deserves better, and that you feel like others can't appreciate her beauty enough if she only wears two outfits all the time. Ask if she's struggling to buy clothes and if you can buy some for her.

6 RepliesWhy do you give a shit? She can wear what she wants, get over it.

Maybe she's... poor? Or, you know, prefers to spend her money on other things...
-
Judging what other people wear is one of the meanest things you could ever do imo
-
She's cheap because maybe she can't afford new clothes at the moment? Why is common sense such a hard thing to find in people these days?
