Not Changing Dirty Clothes

This nasty little habit wasn’t only practiced by the peasants. Even King James VI of Scotland went months without changing his outfit. While Princess Kate Middleton’s clothes are the subject of a news article each time she appears in public, princesses in medieval times would go months wearing the same dress. Most people only owned four outfits, changing at the start of each season. Remember that the next time you’re tempted to stand in your closet and wail, “I’ve got nothing to wear!”
