Question

During the days of Sefirat HaOmer, is it permitted to sew a hem on a new weekday skirt and start wearing it instead of an old skirt that was ruined by bleach stains and is no longer fit to wear, given that one would not recite the blessing of “Shehecheyanu” on this new skirt in any case?

Answer

Shalom u’vracha 

There is no problem with getting a new skirt during Sefirat HaOmer, since it is not customary to recite “Shehecheyanu” over it.
