    The average woman wears clothes and accessories worth over £1,000 every time she leaves the house, it has been found.

    A study tallied the cost of various items from underwear to handbags to work out what the typical British woman has with her at any one time.

    It was discovered the average woman wears lingerie worth around £26, a skirt costing £30, shoes worth £51, a top costing £22 and a cardigan or jumper worth £38.

    This is then finished off with £378 jewellery, a £76 watch and a handbag £106 containing and purse worth £146 (including contents) and a £106 mobile.

    That's a total of around £1,000 -- around a £100 more then the average man… who was wearing cheap jeans, a cheap t-shirt and had a really nice mobile phone in his pocket.

    I wonder if that includes depreciation? Clothing is only worth about 1/10 once worn, even name brands. Then since a mobile is outdated almost as soon as it comes out makes them worth a lot less. The only thing that may increase in value is the jewlery.

    O_O That's got to be just British women because women in the U.S. definitely don't have that much bling when they leave the house, or maybe that's just where I live >_>
