I think it's embarrassing (and not tzenuis) to wear a top with a brand name written across the chest area. So many brand name clothing look like costumes to me...... I don't understand how a skirt or dress with the brand printed on it in huge letters is nice and elegant. |
This. I am having a hard time finding a quality black leather belt because the real leather ones almost all have a silly logo on it. I don’t want the buckle to have the brand prominently displayed- I don’t need everyone to know what brand I’m wearing.
Bags are at least easier to find - I do not understand the YSL and Louis craze but luckily there are many quality leather options without any logo displayed on the outside.
And plain black shoes with “Givenchy” on it… I just don’t get the appeal!

This is a lot more my style and what I’m comfortable with.

Why do you need/want a Cartier watch?

Why is this so popular in the frum world?
I understand that designer stuff is often superior quality etc. So if you can afford it- enjoy. I understand it to be a status thing for some people or an investment. How does that explain wearing fakes? What is the point? |
To keep up with the shwartzes when you can’t afford the real deal

Cartier watches are not flashy. You wouldn’t know what it was unless you got super close to me. They are also high quality and last years and years. I’m talking about 20-30 years. Vs a pair of shoes that get worn out, or a bag that’s just very flashy with the logo- why not choose a quality leather bag without the logo, or a belt that has a huge GG etc.

Sorry I don't buy this at all. There is nothing so uniquely beautiful about Ferragamo shoes that it's worth buying knock offs. The classic flat is a flat with a bow.
I like designer stuff, but at least I'm honest with myself. I like the status, most of the money is going for the name, and I would never wear fakes.

I’m okay with name brands, but never liked an article of clothing, or accessories where the only design on it is the companies name or logo.
How can you call a sweatshirt with big lettering on it and no other design “adorable”. Would you get it if there was a different word here with the same font?

I get so frustrated sometimes when scrolling through a website and all im seeing is this clothing with logos and names splashed across. My kid isn’t a walking ad thank you very much.
