I have... an Onion jacket, if that counts.

When I go to my internship at Merrill Lynch, I dress to impress with a $145 dress shirt and 180$ dress pants from Hugo Boss (just bought these 2 last week ). The way you carry yourself is important. What you wear defines a part of you today in society whether you like it or not, whether you care or not. I do, so I present myself in the nicest way possible.

I feel the same holds true when I'm going out. Not like it matters when you're hanging out at your friends house playing PS2, but when I go out to dinners, parties, dates, maybe even school, I try to look my best.

It's not like I pay the extra buck for a brand name. I pay it for the quality, because trust me.. there is a noticable difference between diesel jeans and the leftover shit they sell in your local outlet.

T-shirts it doesn't matter much. I get most of T-s from express and they only cost like $18.. I try not to spend $200 on a DG t-shirt, because that's just a little ridiculous.




I think an appropriate analogy could be made between brand name clothing and luxury cars. For all of you freaking out on people who care about brand name clothing, what's your view on cars?

[tastyphoxette]

I can't say I really wear the brand clothes... like Armani, or Gucci, etc.

I tend to spend my money on lots of other things...
Clothes have never really been up there on my list of super important expensive things.

I'm much, much happier running around in some jeans and a Zelda shirt than anything else. I mean, you can't actually decide to run, jump, or pick flowers in some $600 skirt or $300 blouse.

No thank you.

[Dillon]

Nope i wear what i think looks good and fits. PLUS CHEAP!

If you pick flowers you're my hero.

Pick flowers in expensive clothes? Or just pick them in general?

[redlion]

In general.

[Jakezilla]

In general.

You just want her to bend over.

You just want her to bend over.

But... flowers are pretty.

Actually, I picked flowers with my girl friend last week. Except it was more like picking grass because there were close to no flowers in all of north texas

[Lawivido]

I like that style, but you must use up a fortune of money on it. Suits, are expensive, not to mention it's Armani.

It's not too bad since I can afford it doing what I do. Plus I like to look sharp at work. ^^ Being the to'p producer, my bosses expect me to look good when I meet with clients 'n such. Alex's mom complemented me once. Haha. "Look at him, a working boy. And look at you. You're lazy.

You sir are a genius. If it fits, looks good, and doesn't cost that much "Check Please".

Haha. Must of been an embarassment for Alex. . I guess if I can afford a different Armani suit every day for work, I'd try it. Though you got be pretty damn rich or have a good income from work.

I'm a loan officer at one of the biggest brokerage firms in Los Angeles. And no, my dad didn't give me the job. Infact, I have a feeling I'm making more than my dad atm.

How's the whole market situation affecting you? I know it basically killed all LO's in Arizona and most of So-Cal =/

Gangstaaa shit, to hang with the homies.

Nike, Billabong, Ripcurl unshit.

Yes most of my clothing is a name brand

[Tetiel]

Nothing brand name because frankly I can buy very nice clothes at Costco (a warehouse store that I get some of my skirts), or Marshalls which is another kinda cheap store. Like I got a fake fur inlined jacket for $35 at Marshalls that I would have paid about $80-$100 at Macy's :\ Why spend my parent's or my own hard earned money on something else. It's about the same quality anyways between those two. I don't know about armani or anything like that but... I just couldn't in good conscience do it. My parents taught me to be very thrifty and yet they give away so much when they can afford so much more.

I've 2 diesel's shirt(had 3, one is too small for me now)... My sisters both have an armani exchange one and they have like 2-3 shirts from diesel... My dad is a big problem, not even going to speak about his clothes XD(he got some pants from diesel D=)

Costco's is the shit!

I don't buy brand clothes, mainly because I have better things to spend money on, than a label on my clothes.
