A Juvenile Solution

Here's an inexpensive way to recycle and reinvent your wardrobe. Consider dying your clothes. If you find your black clothes fading, don't throw it out. Simply dye it back to its original color. Add longevity to your jeans by buying lighter shades when they're on sale. I recommend stocking up. If your weight is stable, I would venture that two pairs would be sufficient. You can dye one pair a darker shade and keep the original color for the other pair. Or wait until you get bored of the color and go for a different look in a couple of months. You can also bleach your clothes, too. It's become crucial for me to practice this because there are a lot of great tops in what I consider tacky shades (emerald green, creamy yellows, fluorescent oranges, etc). If you happen to like brighter clothes, even better. I'm not saying you shouldn't update your wardrobe seasonally. But do what you can to cut corners.
