“On the other hand, there are enough people who act this way that makes it a problem.”
please quit while you arent so far behind.
“Yes, I agree that these people have class. I don’t care if you spend crazy amounts of money on clothes, just don’t flaunt it by needing to show the label.”
of course you care or you would never have mentioned it.
“The most expensive brand names actually do not have labels or symbols. This is because they are intended for the classy members of society who are “fortunate” enough to be able to afford them.”
then you shouldn’t feel any animosity toward those who DO have labels, after all, they are too poor to afford the good stuff.
But I never pay a lot of money for what I wear. If I can buy a sweater in Target for $30, or I could find one on sale in Macy’s or Lord and Taylor for $35, then yeah- I’m gonna go for the brand name. Show me one person who wouldn’t.
people who dont have to worry about their finances. however that does not make them bad people or in fact flawed in any way. some people just like the finer things in life, and would purchase with or without the audience that you so dutifully provide.
a status symbol is indeed put on clothing to indicate one’s status as being able to afford better quality products, however just because the clothing designer was ill intentioned does not mean that the consumer is. please understand the difference.
