Below are the residents I interviewed and some of the questions i asked them :
Emily Pilsbury 19
Daniel Cudmore 19
Lauren Bates 20
Q: How much would you say you roughly spend during the year?
E: In the summer i would say i spend much more money than i usually do throughout the year, only because if i was to go on holiday, which i do mostly every year, i would invest beauty treatments such as waxing and pedicures which cost a lot more than doing it yourself. I think id spend an average of £150 a month on clothes.
H: I think during the whole year i would spend roughly £1500 which i don't think is too bad. Most of the time though my mum buys clothes for me so i don't have to spend as much.
L: Well when i was working i would spend roughly £200 pounds a month on clothes, but now i'm not working its significantly reduced to spending a maximum of £70 a month on nails, clothes and make up. 4
G: Not sure how much i spend during the year but every time i go out i buy new clothes for the occasion. I like nice things and think its important to spend more money on nicer clothes.
D: I reckon about £600 i spend throughout the year. I do get spoilt by my sisters and family so i think more is spent on me.
Q: What is your favourite item of clothing you have in your wardrobe?
D: My all saints scarf i would have to say
G: I think mine would be tweed jacket that i wore to Cheltenham
H: I actually love my Jack Wills hoodie, i wear it all the time
E: My favourite thing ever are my Ugg boots. I literally wear them all the time.
Q: Do you have a fashion icon and if so who is he/she?
L: My fashion icon is Fern Cotton. I think most of my clothes are from topshop just like Fern and i think her style is amazing
D: Joey Essex is my style icon because he can pull of the skinny jean look and still look like a man.
Q: Where do you find the money to buy what you do?
H: I work during the summer period and have money from my parents during the year. My mum does buy a lot of things for me.
E: My parents just take me shopping when i need things and buy me what i want really
G: I have a part time job so my wages get spent on treating myself and buying things for me
L: I work in Comet during the summer, easter and Christmas periods as part time and can spend the money on nice things. Otherwise i have to budget the savings i have really.
Thank you all very much for your cooperation.
