Title: Do you wear expensive clothes?
Post by: snuggleycutejc on March 23, 2017, 04:34:17 pm
I have bought my kids and me expensive shoes, comfortable. I have bought a expensive hat and a dress, but don't wear them all the time lol. I do have cloths that are less than a $5.00 then I have wonderful feelings when slipping into them because I found something so nice so cheap. Have you bought the underwear that cost  $30.00 each? Just seen a video that the steel-like socks are about $10,000.00, can't wait until they come down in price, They say these socks are like going barefoot and they are running, and climbing rocks. Have a gr8 day.  :present:

Wow, socks that expensive. I will never buy them. I have some clothing which I consider expensive. However, I only buy when they are on sale or on the clearance rack.

Sometimes, but I find them on sale or at garage sales. Yippy,lol.

Like my new Coach rain boats that I only paid 5 bucks for at TJmaxx.

I love buying expensive clothes for CHEAP!  Winners/TJ Maxx, consignment stores and outlet malls are some of my favourite places to shop!

I like good looking and good fitting clothes, but I don't need a certain label.
My job doesn't require dressing up....jeans are just fine.

I enjoy our local consignment store and have purchased many jeans, shirts, sweatshirts, and even dresses there.  Sometimes, the tag is still on the item.

Absolutely not .. I grew up in a family where we had a budget so I learned from my mom how to shop on a budget.  Some of my most adorable outfits come from the Walmart clearance rack.

No.  I wear reasonable price of clothes as long as  comfortable except if we are going to attend a wedding and import celebration that you need to look presentable.

My mother used to say, "you get what you pay for."  I've found that clothes look nicer longer, and last longer if you pay for quality items.  I'm not one to buy really expensive clothes.  I don't see the point. You don't have to pay a lot of money to get something that fits well, looks nice, and is comfortable.  Save that money for something else!

Actually I don't buy expensive clothes.  I live on a small budged so I look for nice clothes at a cheap price.  The most I've paid for a blouse was $50.  Anything more than that and I just wait for sale.  I did splurge once on a pair of Nikes customized.  It cost me $200 but I've had them for at least five years now and they are still as comfortable as they were the day I bought them.  But honestly, I save my money.  I think a $30 purse can look just as great as a coach or a Michael Kors.

I buy a lot of my clothes at walmart or Rue 21. Now shoes I will only buy Skechers or Ugg's. Same with my purses I will only buy Coach or Juicy. Shoes & purses to me need to last awhile!

Nope, I go to thrift stores and find brand new looking clothes from high-end retailers. A lot of the clothes are like new because people dump their unwanted clothing gifts as donations.

I would like to wear some of them, but I don't!

I got some money for clothes for my bday, so I will go to Shopko.

I don't need pricey or fancy. I like comfy, even for dressier situations.

No, I don't. Mine are inexpensive but comfortable.

No I'm cheap I never pay a lot of money for my clothes.  I shop in clearance sections and thrift stores.  You can find good deals in thrift stores.  A lot of times you are just paying for the name with fancy labels anyway.  The same clothes are made in the same factories they just slap a name brand label on some of them.

I do not wear expensive cloths. I am a single parent so I have to budget, but I do not think anyone looks better than me because they have on expensive cloths. I think it is about how you put your cloths together and how you wear them. I shop at Ross and Burlington when I want name brand, but I will buy from anywhere if it fits nice and looks cute. I also like to switch up my look so I don't want items that are to pricey that will just sit in my closet. I care more about name brand shoes.

Other than my work shirt uniform provided to me by the company all my clothes for the last 10 years (accept bras, socks, shoes and underwear) I buy 2nd hand.  I used to shop the local Good-Will stores regularly.  But I recently found out just how much Good-Will really donates and it's minimal.  So I've not really shopped.  I do have a gift card to use at Marshalls.  Could use a new bag and top but I'm in no hurry to spend any moola just yet.

I am too poor to afford anything that expensive. I am still in college, trying to make my way in the world and am barely getting by. I cant wait though until I have a stable income in my life.

I have a couple of things that were expensive, but most of the time I buy my clothes from Wal-Mart.  My shoes I buy Sketchers because they are comfortable and last a long time.

I'm poor, so no, I don't wear expensive clothes. I focus more on comfort and style than price. I believe that wearing expensive clothing makes you a target to be robbed/carjacked/etc.

When I was younger I'd buy expensive name brand clothes but as I got older..... Walmart clothes will do

I will only buy expensive clothes after they have been marked down cheap enough for my pocketbook.

Name brand items when they are on sale or if it is worth the high price.

I try not to, but I am a plus size women so some of my clothes are a little expensive.  I shop at Ashley Steward and Lane Bryant so they are a little expensive.

Absolutely not. There's no reason to be wearing more expensive clothing unless you want to waste money.
Title: Re: Do you wear expensive clothes?
Post by: griserelizabeth on April 04, 2017, 11:39:59 pm
I never buy expensive clothing unless there's a good deal or sale going on, I never saw the point of buying expensive clothing when I could get something similar for a lower price.

I work at walmart and do not have to have expensive clothes.  But my Sunday clothes I get at jc pennys.  I don't buy them unless they are on sale.  I hope everyone has a good day and may God bless each of you and keep you safe. :) :)

I shop the clearance rack or thrift stores for my clothes lol I recently went to Goodwill and found 4 pair of jeans that looked brand new in my size. I bought them for $3.29 a pair. I didn't recognize the label. I got them home and they fit me like they were made for me!!! (I'm a full-figured, hard to fit gal) I looked them up online and they are Diane Gillman, a line carried by Home Shopping Network and they run $60-$80 a pair! Cha Ching!!!

I buy very moderately priced clothing, especially since I am not working anymore.  If there is a special occasion, I might splurge a bit, but expensive, definitely not.  I guess it all depends on someone's definition of "expensive."
