Also where TF you buying $8.99 pink dress, socks, AND hair dye? Thrift store?

My wife buys clothes at https://us.shein.com/. Think she found them living in the Philippines, they seem to have an Asian slant, and kept using them when she came here.

Unrelated tangent, but I would urge you to suggest to your wife that she shop at other places. Shein is among the worst companies on earth in terms of the scale of their pollution.

Additionally, "a documentary by the U.K.’s Channel 4 found that Shein employees were working 75-hour shifts with very little time off."

Fast fashion is pretty gross.
