they're awesome
i can care less about what other epople thik of me but i do love my designer clothes i can't stand being in no name brands and plus my mom grew up like that too so i kinda got it from my mom and just because some people buy brand names they have to work very hard for it even though i don't. i just get my money from my parents and yeah i'm pretty loaded which is why probably my family hates no name brands.

I dig it
Well i love brand name clothes i couldnt live with out them but im not the type to go around telling people..Yes i will wear the clothes with the label and all that on it. and like people who cant really afford named brand clothes say things like they just trying to show off. thats annoys the hell out of me i love named brand clothes and its like i got to a "black" school and like some people wear the up-to-date things.I know i do and people will call you spoiled and all that but then be in your face! Named Brand is the best I COULD NOT LIVE WITHOUT IT!

Ok, I admit it...
I only wear brand names such as HCO and A&F because only then am I not considered a 'loser'. Otherwise, they're nothing special. You can find stuff that looks just like them at Old Navy...or even Target! The only difference is they don't have a name slapped across them. XD

MONEYMONEYMONEY...MONEY
If you got the MONEY go ahead but dont show off your designer brands. Some people are embarrased by not having the latest trend
--Posted by ashley1492




it's showing wat u have
I don't like preppy brands, but name brands cost money. That's the kool part. If you have it, it DOES cost a lot, therefore it's show-offy (u know, oooh i have money). It's terrible but name brands make me feel all fuzzy inside!

WELL TO ME NAME BRAND IS THE HOTTEST THING THAT YOU MUST HAVE. ITS NOT THE ONLY THING THAT I WEAR BUT I DO HAVE IT. I LIKE APPLEBOTTOMS, PEPE, ENYCE, AZZURE, AKADEMIKS,ROCA WEAR, ETC. IF I WANNA KEEP MY POPUARITY STATUS I MUST STAY ICY. AND I AM ICY. HATERS SEEM TO HATE SO TUFF BUT THEY JUST MAD CAUSE THEY NOT ME. SIKE JUST PLAYING ABOUT THAT LAST SENTENCE. BUT EVRYBODY MUST BOSS THEY STATUS UP, AND BOSS UP AND GET SOME MONEY.

name brands oh yes
i think that only ppl who cant afford name brand clothes say that that they dont like them. name brand clothes give you a certain feeling you have to wear them to feel it. i wear name brand clothes all the time.

Brand names do nothing for me. I can understand getting excited about how a piece of clothing *looks*, but the company? Totally immaterial. heh. material.
--Posted by squishylou




i find
I find brand names a useless peice of crap.. specialy if they have the brand written on the frount because all your doing is paying the store to advertise there clothing! which i find is EXTREMLY GAY!!!!! Seriously if you dont get that then in my opion ur must have some loose bolts up in your head! besides that I've found that cheap cloths seem to last longer! So be cheap and have fun!!!! Muwhahaha
--Posted by xox_cheltee_xox



I'm not sure what they mean by "brand names" in general, but...
If I'm going to wear some brand name plastered across my chest, that company better pay ME for advertising for them, damnit.
--Posted by Sporkatronic




Kiss my a$$..................sorry
Brand names are stupid yes i wear it but people turn it into a big thang, and hell the prices for a piece of clothing BABY PHAT SHIRT 39.95 hell naw i ain't payin that much for some sh!t that i will grow out of.
--Posted by nyccheetah11




Brand Names are for people with image problems and people that want to be walking advertisements. Seriously people, get some originality.
--Posted by angryblackchick




....
they are the same as all other stores and worht like 10 bucks and then you throw on a label and its instantly 40 bucks higher....seems a bit stupid
--Posted by troublemaker014




pathetic
what the f*ck is the point of having a the name of some f*cked up store name on ur chest?!?! I have never figured that out..its just pathetic!! i dont care about ur f*cken store!! and they r all tight and slutty too...make clothes for real pplz these days!!
--Posted by popularitysucks




this is for all the posers lol!
i hate name brands all there for is for people who think or maybe even do have money to show people up that are less fortunate. i think they think that it makes them cooler or a better person or something but clothes are clothes nothing else to it. yeah you should want to look nice but some people have on name brand stuff and just buy it caz its name brand they dont care if its cute or ok or just not cute . thats why i stick to t's and jeans simple but classic!
--Posted by raw604




Only If you have the...$$$
Brand name is ok i will never diss anyone for waering it but if you can't afford it then don't buy it,If you are on welfare and don't have a job don't buy a $600 pair of jeans called "Seven" Lol it's just common sense,Me personally i Do't buy name brand clothes Only My sneakers are name brand..Not "jordans" but i buy nike,I basically get what ever i think is cute be it name brand or not
--Posted by Sugarsnapgurl




i'm torn
i think you should just but clothes based on whether or not you like them. no one's looking at the tag so they're probably not going to know who made it. however there are some brands that have special striching and embroididry so you can tell who makes it-i am really good at telling where a clothing piece is from. also it's really tempting to buy expensive designer clothing and kind of show it off in a subtle way but it's too expensive!!!! buy it on sale if you must!
--Posted by blondiegurl1212




waste of money
brand names are usually expensive and usually just portray the name of the brand. so why would you pay a lot of money to a company so you can walk around being an add for them??
--Posted by myeyesinthedark



Whatever
I have trouble finding clothes that aren't branded already. I just try to find clothes that don't have their name all over it. Because I personally don't wish to be a walking advertisement. I also think its a waste of money, sure every once in a while i'll see something and be like " wow thats really cute!" But i have limits.
--Posted by chelsea_182



i dunno..i don't have any soooo.....????
i swear ppl in my school just wanna sho off 4 real!!! "omg look i got this baby phat shirt yesturday at Northland mall for $59.95." yyeeaahhh if it didn't have that lil cat on it, it'll b like 5 dollaz or somethin
--Posted by londongirl819



continued.....
yyeeaaahh i don't waste my money on petty things like that n NO i ain't hatin on nobody who wearin it or got the dough but 2 me i wouldn't waste $200 on ONE thing when i can go to the mall n buy me some clothes..shoooo. clothes are just clothes. u waste money and then u grow outta them so what's the use? then u look back on it: "dang i wasted $40 on this?"
