Lovelyish

pshh. not true.

people will always be judged by their clothing no matter what. i don’t automatically assume people are snobs .. pretty stupid.

No, I don’t make those kinds of judgements.  I never did.

nope.

I hate those assumptions.
I try not to make them.

no. i don’t.

It’s a little unfair to be passing off those kinds of judgment based on the clothes alone. The kind of attitude they exude while wearing those clothes is usually the one factor that determines whether that person is a snob or not. It’s all in the attitude.

Are they carrying this air of hauteur or are they down-to-earth?

@ my HS it was opposite… the ppl talked about the poor kids… I worked my ass off to have semi decent clothes… but they talked about anything… I think that is the nature of high school. When I got to College it was so much better, but ppl still talk.

It’s beyong annoying when someone criticizes me for saying, “Man, I’m so broke.” They judge me and attack me because I wear nicer clothes than them. It’s so ridiculous- I don’t even think that it makes me any better than anyone else, yet they just assume I do, ugh. Seriously, how do you know that my clothes aren’t knock-offs?

I’d never judge a person by his/her apparel, but that doesn’t mean I can’t tell whether they’re wearing designer pants

PS, I had no idea who Charlotte Russe is, but when I read it in your entry, it sounded pretty fancy x).

Uhh I’ve never heard anyone say that people that wear nice clothes are snobs, if anything, people make fun of those that wear cheap clothes. Then again I live in like the richest county in the USA..oh well.

I can see why those judgments are made. It’s more socially unacceptable to make fun of someone wearing cheap clothes because that person most likely has no choice but to buy them whereas if someone wears expensive clothes it looks like they’re making a show of how rich they are therefore they look like a snob. I’m not saying it’s right because ideally no one would be judged on their appearances but it that’s just the way it is.

My dear, this society judges on many things and clothing is one of them. People think people who wear nicer clothes are snobs because they are flithy rich and are spoiled brat depending on the age of that person.

Yous hould know that we all view things in different ways, but when it comes to fashion, handbags, shoes, the nicer you have things, the worser judgement you get.

I get stares and looks from all sorts of people all the time because I wear a lot of nice clothing and nice handbags. Due to the fashionable side and modeling side of me, some people may even look at me as if I was some kind of slut or trend whore.

Although, I don’t follow trends cause I start trends, lol.

I’m no slut either, but people consider many models to be sluts or whores or hoes. It’s their opinions.

My main points is, this society is very judgement, and when people see things they can’t have they WILL DEFINATELY BRAG AND BRAG AND BRAG.

in my old HS people commented on the expensive and the cheap.  its HS thats what kids do but no i dont judge someone based on clothes, i judge by the personality.  if they can afford expensive clothes than why not…

if i could afford expensive clothes i would wear them too.  you buy them so you could wear them.  for now its all bebe and forever 21.

people who drive expensive cars are snobs :}

Wait a freaking minute. Your post is about people judging others because they wear expensive clothes, yet you change the word from “expensive” to “nice” later in the post.

Well, which is it? It sounds like in your head “expensive” = “nice.” Isn’t that kind of a judgment in itself?

In my experience, expensive clothes are not necessarily nice (by any definition – including quality and style).

To answer your real question, I don’t judge people who wear “expensive” clothes, but I do feel like saying something like, “you know, if you bought a few of your things at Kohls or JCPenny, you would be able to donate your extra money to something more important than your self-esteem (like people who don’t have the money to pay their heating bills this winter).”

I don’t judge people who wear nice clothes, cause, that’s just silly.

It’s not okay in either case, but people do it because people who don’t have money can’t control how expensive their clothes are, whereas rich people can decide between a Vera Wang or a One Step Up.  They’re not all snobs, but the ones who are snobs are infinitely more infamous than normal ones who are just average, kind people.  Oh yes, society likes its controversy.

well, $5,000 would be better spent on something else, rather than a top.. i would really question someone’s judgment if they would actually spend that much money on a top.

People do that because if you can tell someone’s wearing or has something that’s expensive, it’s because they went out of their way to make it obvious. Therefore they deserve criticism for being obnoxious.

You don’t NEED the product from Gucci that says “Gucci” on it, if you’re really just trying to look nice you can get something from that label (or whatever label) that’s unmarked. YOU know it’s quality and that you like the fit or whatever. If someone finds out and calls you a snob, THEN you have the right to be offended. Until then, shut up and keep spending Daddy’s money or whatever.

I don’t know anybody rich enough to spend that much money on clothes. 

I get a bit cautious for those who wear “nice” clothes. Alot of people who I run across who wear “nice clothes” tend to be a little bit stuck up. Not saying that all of them are because I know plenty who wear “nice” clothes and are sweet and nice.

But, one example that completely irks me are the “popped” collars. Those things are just . . . . eww. And usually the ones who wear those are douches anyways.

I don’t really judge them like a snob and all. I just think they’ve got monayyy!

haha I can’t tell the difference between “cheap” and “pricy” brands (unless it’s super blatant, like the shirt has gold plate or something o_O) so I can’t say I have judged people like that before. I don’t approve of wearing expensive clothes though, because that money could be going somewhere else. You can look just as nice for way less money. I hate it when people get a certain brand of something just so they can say, “I have this brand!” It’s stupid.

my best friend ( GUY ) told me im a spoiled bratt
Because I’m TRENDY* / FASHIONABLE / MY CLOTHES MATCHES VERY WELL

& claims he has seen me holding a gucci/ prada & coach bag

When I dont own any of the following designer bag

not really. it makes me automatically think that they’re rich, not necessarily snobby. i assume a person is snobby by the air, aura, attitude that they have about how they carry themselves.

but if i happen to know they’re livin in ghetto areas like where i’m at, i jump to the conclusion that they can be a tad spoiled. i got cousins that love branded stuff, we’re in a bad economic situation – like really bad. but they constantly insist on branded clothes. 

This is really dumb.

I dress nicely. Period.
It doesn’t say anything about my personality.

Its exhausting to keep being judged in that way.

I can’t say I judge others that way because 1. I have no reason to and 2. I usually don’t notice other people like that regardless. XD

I don’t have the slightest clue as to the differences between brands, so no – I don’t make judgements like that. I get my clothes from sale racks and thrift stores and rarely know what brand they are anyway…

I don’t really care what people wear.

Back when I was in HS it was totally opposite. Tons of kids drove BMW’s and Jag’s and if you didn’t wear expensive clothes, they looked down upon you.

It totally goes both ways. I’ve always worn what I want to, and to each their own, but it was hard going to a school with girls who had coach shoes and purses and turned their lip up and snarled at your non brand name purse.

People Who Wear Expensive Clothing Are Snobs?!

Are secretly poor

@LupusInvictus@xanga - Zing!

I only judge preteen girls who sport brand name clothing, because they didn’t earn the money to purchase the clothing ‘cuz it’s illegal to work when you’re that young. For me it automatically translates into their parents being filthy rich and spoiling their kids.

Other than that, I don’t judge people on what they wear. Unless I personally know them, I wouldn’t label them as either a snob or financially poor.

I am insulted that Charlotte Russe is on the list of cheap clothing.

I happen to like Charlotte Russe.

i don’t really judge people based on that… but if they do wear something that’s like WAY SHORTER then booty shorts, then yeah we do have a problem.

most of the time, they’re snobs that just wants to show off.
but face it..most rich ppl are really snobs!

either that or they’re poor as hell but just trying to look rich.

I think it’s just this perception that if you dress in the “best” clothing there is out there, you automatically are a snob for dressing that way. And if you dress in less expensive clothing, people don’t tend to care too much… That’s how it is at my school at least.
I have friends who DO dress in designer clothing all the time and are the nicest people you’ll ever meet.
But I also have friends who DO dress in designer clothing all the time and like to FLAUNT it and make a fuss about it too. AND that just bugs the crap out of me.
In reality, we all judge… It’s just human nature. Heh.

Why is it that it’s unfair to judge the girl who wears Wal-Mart, Kohl’s, JCPenney, Sears, and Charlotte Russe

not rich enough.

true religion

very rich enough.

see

“to assume makes an ass out of u & me”..

Just because i choose to spend my money on clothes & boots etc.. doesn’t mean i’m loaded anyway…

I just don’t have a need for the foxtel/a vehicle/daily take-away/computer games.. whatever.. So any dosh i have, over my essentials, goes into music tickets & my wardrobe.

I don’t judge you on your need to get a hotted up car or the latest & greatest graphics cards & whateverinch flatscreen etccccc….. don’t judge my marcjacob’s boots:))

You don’t need nice clothes to make you a snob. You can be a snob totally independent of expensive clothes.. so I’ve heard of what others think of me.

But nice clothes do help emphasize that snobbiness x 10. If you can act superior and look good doing it, why not? Double win!

I always make sure I dress nicely, and love my few designer clothes.  I’m not a snob.  I’m a nice person.

I don’t dress like other people in my area, though, and that makes some people think I’m stuck up.  I live in the country, but always dress like I live in NYC.  I don’t think I’m better than anyone else.  It’s just my style.  In fact, most of my closet is full of clothes from Wal-Mart, with about 3 designer tops.

My thoughts are to dress how you want to.  We have to accept that we’re judged a lot of the time.  It might not be right, but we just have to ignore it.  Be comfortable in your own skin..ya know?

I never think people in expensive clothes are snogs unless they brag or talk about about other peoples clothes. When I was in school, like middle & high school, people would tease me because I didnt have name brand clothes but I was just glad to have on stuff I liked & more importantly, I was glad I HAD clothes!! There were people in the world who werent so lucky.

I dont know why some girls brag, most of the time, they dont even buy it themselves. Atleast some people earn what they get. Even if they were gifts or something, they shouldnt brag because their money train may run out & then were would they be?

but most girls who do wear expensive, overpriced clothes are snobs. they act as if they are better than girls who can’t afford the same thing. even if it means it was their parents’ money they bought the clothes with LOL

as long as it is nice…

If I knew someone who was rich enough to dress like that, I would write them off as a snob because, most likely, they’re going to write me off for wearing band shirts, ripped jeans, and having my eyebrow pierced. That’s just the way things are, sadly. Society judges by the appearance, so I’m always ready to give a snarky reply to anyone who’s staring at me like I have horns coming out of my head.

thank you. this is spot-on.

last year i was bullied quite a bit for owning a coach bag, among other things. i wound up having to hit people over the head with the bag in question in SELF DEFENSE. no joke.

i was jumped, called a cunt, etc, all for the way i dressed. i kept carrying the bag as a matter of principle, but by the end of the year i was really sick of the thing.

i’m sorry, but i am not about to say “poor little rich girl,” for anything. people just need to mind their own damn business and worry about their own clothes.

and if the rich girl in her moschino top and marc jacobs bag knows she looks cute or the middle class/poor girl knows she looks cute in her target skirt and her charlotte russe shoes, then why are they so concerned with what others are saying? people pay way too much attention to other people’s haterous comments. if people are hating, that just means that you have something worth being hated on. be proud of it!

I try not to but sometimes I do. It stems off of when I was younger but now I’m really tryin’ hard to not be like that. You never know what someone went through to get the outfit that they are wearing.

 They could have saved up for it and bought it as a treat or something like that. To show off their hard work at saving and not just charged it right then.

@proudsmartypants@xanga - agreed.

haha I can barely even tell brands apart so I dont think Id make fun of how cheap or snobby they look. More, if I make fun of someones clothes its whether or not it LOOKS cheap. Not in a “that looks like it was only 5 bucks” way but more of a “Holy crap wtf is she wearing?!” type of way. lol

i remember high school. it was horrible at my school. there were so many little cliques.

Why do people make these judgments? About the nicest clothing I could afford were the generic polo shirts at JC Penny. And yes, I did get judged in my brandless, generic clothing.

Meanwhile, you have people who can afford clothing that costs more than $20 per article, and they buy a bunch of it. Of course they buy the stuff with the designer name clearly visible, so they practically flaunt their money. Of course they are going to be judged.

I’ve known people who made multiple times what I did, and while they dressed nice, they didn’t get items that flaunted the designer, so I never knew. They were pretty cool. However, it is my experience that those who dress in clothing that blatantly flaunts it’s price tend the be a bit snooty.

I hate those preppy stores, like Abercrombie & Fitch, and Hollister, even though those aren’t exactly “designer.” Usually the people who go out of the way to have a wardrobe full of these clothes, are what I call “brand snobs” because they have to have all of their shirts announcing the stupid logo everywhere. As my boyfriend says, “I hate logo shirts. Why am I going to buy a shirt that advertises for a company?!” Lol, I looked at him, and realized that it was true, buying a logo shirt equals advertisement for them, and who wants to be a flashy walking A&F, or Hollister ad? Apparently a lot of people. But hey, different strokes for different folks.  ****It just bothers me though when people will say, “I only shop at….fill in the blank.” Now THOSE people are snobs, because they’re limiting themselves to one brand.

*Edit: I love American Eagle, but even there, I refrain from buying logo shirts. It’s stupid. So what if I bought clothes from there? Who really cares?

If you have the money to wear those designer labels, then go for it!  For the most part, I probably wouldn’t be able to tell the difference between someone wearing Prada or something from Kohl’s unless it blatantly said it.  When I was in HS, it was all about what brand of jeans you wore.  If they weren’t expensive Buckle, Silver or Lucky jeans, then you would get talked about.  Now that I’m in college, I don’t really notice those catty girls who talk about what others are wearing.  

I shop at Bloomies and Saks – and I shop at Walmart and Target and I love Ross. I wear my $15 Ross dress with my $300 Tory burch boots and feel pretty damn fabulous. I am not a mean person or a snob - just a lover of fine fabrics, nicely tailored clothes, and a good bargain. What’s wrong with that?

I dont dress for other people, I dress for myself. I assume others do the same so, no, I never judge anyone for what’s on their bodies.

thats because we think rich people get rich since they are kind of a great evil. and that means people who can afford better cloths are rich, and they are evil and look like a snob. but these are just assumption, sometimes people do judge things from the outside.

it goes the same when i see a hot girl, i will think that she is kind of arrogant and not easy to approach since she knows she is hot. most of us think like this and it’s like a logic to us.
I wear nice cloth and I think the people stare at me think i am such a snob. that does not seem fair to people who wear nice cloths. i wonder why people don’t judge my friends spending so much money on bears or buying PC upgrades to play online games.

I’ve heard comments like that about both ends of the spectrum. A Yes, I judge people by what they wear at times. I don’t judge what their personality will be like by their clothes. If someone comes to work with a bunch of holes in their shirt, I’d be like what were they thinking!? But no, I’m not going to be like so&so is a snob for wearing expensive clothes!

In high school everyone I went to school with wore similar clothes. In college I heard more rude remarks on how I dressed. I just too pride in how I looked. I didn’t want to wear pj’s to class and look like a slob, so I was considered a “snob”. Course I don’t act like one, I’m pretty nice I would say.

There is one girl who is friends with my boyfriend who hates me because I have a few Coach purses. She won’t call me by my name, I’m simply “Coach purse girl” to her. She’s a snob.

$5 Walmart shirt (cheap) vs. $40 boutique store, higher quality shirt.. let me think of what I think of that… Do I even need to answer?  =/ There’s being thrifty because you’re a family of 5, and then there’s being downright cheap, especially for those single with full time jobs.  Better quality clothes fit better and last longer.  You do the math.

No, people who BRAG about their expensive clothing are snobs.

@Agent_Spanky@xanga - I agree.

@listen_to_The_Pixies@xanga - that is so true.

I don’t judge people based on their clothing.

I’ve never heard anyone being called a snob just because they wear nice clothes. Then again, I don’t know anyone with that kind of money.

If youre in HIGH SCHOOL and you are sporting a $1,000 dollar purse than yeah…. you might be a snob. If only because you didnt earn that purse and if you did, I’d be worried how someone got ahold of one.

So we must assume your parents think you deserve a gucci bag or louis vuitton kinda bag… and THOSE types of parents are typically what scare us.

Its snobby parents breeding entitled children. No kid “deserves” a $500 dollar pair of jeans. And if you say you “deserve” a pair… then you are a snob. Its a sense of entitlement.

I don’t make those judgements at all.

Whatever you wear you wear. As long as your not naked or anything hanging out, I can care less. But yeah, the majority of people nowadays judge on what you wear and how you wear it. It can’t be helped.

It is totally unfair.  First of all, having money doesn’t automatically translate to snobbery.  Also, wearing designer labels doesn’t mean someone has money.  I like to wear designer clothes, but I get mine out of dumpsters, mostly, and a few at thrift stores.

I wear a lot of Lucky jeans and some people seem to think I’m a snob for that, including some people I’m friends with that. I don’t go out of my way to be like “LOOK! I’M WEARING LUCKY JEANS!”, they’re just all I wear. They’re usually about $100 (although I usually try to get them on sale), but I have super long legs, and Lucky’s are the only jeans I’ve found that actually fit and were comfortable. I’m not even trying to look good, I’m just trying to be comfortable, and people look down on me for paying a little extra for jeans.

People just try to fit in in high school so they say whatever they think the people they’re hanging with think. ALL through high school, I was SUCH  a Walmart girl, and I didn’t care that I wasn’t wearing Hollister or A&F … at least I knew the people I was friends with liked me for me, and not how much money I had … which was how alot of people were. We never really had people making fun of the wealthier kids for what they were wearing, alot of people [including myself at times] made fun of the poorer kids [again] to fit in with everyone else … we’re all guilty of judging someone in one way or another, I know I do it on a daily basis.

I don’t usually judge people on what they wear, but I have to admit I judge just a bit on how they wear it.

Usually I see a bag and think “Oooo that’s cute!” or “Meh, not my style” without regard for brand and whatnot.

What gets me is when people wear the enormous D&G belt buckles, the bag with Coach written all over it, the giant designer sunglasses, etc. When they wear it with the labels and insignia all over everything, that’s just tacky in my opinion. They’re advertising that what they wear is expensive, peering at me through those huge sunglasses as if I’m less worthy in my cute but inexpensive top from JC Penny’s and my jeans from Kohl’s.

I don’t think it’s that people who wear expensive clothes are snobs, but that snobs often wear expensive clothes. Thus, expensive clothes get associated with snobbery. Does that make sense?

I hate assumptions.
For me, they’re almost ALWAYS incorrect, so I try not to do that.
I don’t judge people by what they wear, but by the things they accomplish, what they do to make themselves a better person.

it’s not always true sometimes ppl look at what u wear when they see cheap clothing they wont be friends with u
there was this one guy in my english class that said if u buy sketchers he not gonns be friend with them
when i see people in nice clothes in school i just think wow they have time to dress up for school
it all depends

To me it’s not fair to judge someone on his/her apperance. I think it’s nuts to spend 5000.00 on a hang bag, if you can afford okay. But I think it’s a waist of money. I buy my clothes on the clearance rack. Once I finish my medical and billing coding course I will be able to purchase more expensive clothes. But I just bye what I think is cute I don’t go on name brand,,, I’m not a name brand whore lol

I don’t normally make the assumption based on a girl’s clothes, but later in life, i have to admit, it’s kind’ve true for most girls/women. I tend to think, if it’s cute, it’s cute. Doesn’t matter how much she spent on it…

It’s quite annoying to hear that harsh comments. I’m usually the one saying, “Don’t judge her because of her clothes!”

It’s easier not to think those things out of High School…

But, sorry to say, people still act like they’re in High School… even when they’re ‘adults’ and have graduated.

The people I’ve known who can actually afford the really expensive designer clothing (as opposed to people who put it all on credit cards to make it LOOK like they can afford those things) have too much common sense to spend that much money on something that frivolous.  And that’s the exact reason why they have more money.

As long as someone is neat and groomed and takes care in their appearance, it doesn’t matter if their clothes came from Versace or Dollar General.

99% of the time I’m not even able to differentiate between cheap and expensive clothes let alone judge someone on something so trivial.

Most people aren’t rich. If I was someone that didn’t have a lot of money in my life (and I am) and had to be subjected to having people around me that have nothing better to do with their money then spend it on overpriced clothes (for which they’re often paying only for the prestige of the item and not the quality) I’d write them off too. Haves vs have nots. You don’t make fun of those less fortunate then you. Those more fortunate then you, well what have they got to lose? Let them buy another pair of $300 jeans if they have a problem with being called a snob. It’ll make them feel better.

i agree with that_anonymous_one.

So many students in my high school have designer things. People even use Prada, Kate Spades, Gucci, and Marc Jacobs bags as their school bags. 

But I don’t think anyone in my school judges them because of it. I guess it’s because we’re all used to it. 

@itz_smartnikki@xanga - same here! everyone at my hs wears stuff  (be it apparel or accesories) from neiman, saks 5th avenue, juicy couture, marc jacobs, tory burch, lilly pulitzer, lacoste, j.crew, etc. it’s definitely unfair that people from other schools and towns call our school snobby because of the clothes the students wear. it’s socially unacceptable judge people’s character with cheap clothes, and it should also be socially unacceptable to judge people for expensive ones, because not everyone who wears them is snobby.

It’s dumb, but its done.
My friend who’s actually pretty cool is judged as a slut because of how she dresses.
Compared to half the school, she’s not slutty. Which is kinda hypocritical.

i think i’m more jealous of good fashion sense haha

@tifflawl@xanga - Exactly. I don’t judge them because of the clothes themselves, but what’s behind the clothes – someone who would spend thousands of dollars on an item of clothing only because it’s designer. I’m sure there’s something just as cute or better for less. You can splurge – buy some designer purses (as long as you like them for what they are instead of just “omg teh designer!!”) or expensive jeans, but only if you’re in the right financial situation.

But in general, I can’t see spending $5000 on any sort of clothing. That seems so empty to me. I’d much rather spend it on (as cliche as it sounds) a nice charity, family/friends that could use it, some nice art, going traveling… buying eight thousand dollar shoes are like “empty calories”. No value.

wow, i’ve never experienced that before.
i live in a really affluent community though, and EVERYONE wears designer jeans at least. i and a lot of people i know can spot specific designer cuts, seams, and obviously, logos in less than a second. and we don’t make fun of people who are decked out in designer clothes and accessories–people who wear cheap stuff are pointed out. synthetic clothes are SUCH a no, and levis are for club carwash days, not school.
of course, that might just be my circle of people. but definitely, there are girls who wear trbjs, r&r’s, j brands, sass and bides, genetics…the whole shebang, every day. and we love them. we all want to be them.
looking cheap is a crime to us, really.

The same people who judge people for wearing “cheap” clothes are also judging people for wearing “expensive” clothes. They’re pretty much going to judge people no matter what, because they’re on their shining throne – that only exists in their mind.

I don’t judge people by what they wear; I judge people by their personality, character, morals, actions, and behavior. People who judge others badly over something as dumb and pointless as clothes and hair are only missing out on tons of fabulous people.

Their loss.

Seriously? HAA HAA!

Of course ppl judge Walmart and Kmart shoppers, Hollywood does it and idiots everywhere copy what Hollywood does.

Most ppl who dress in clothes they can’t afford have issues, self esteem issues, they’re afraid others may think they’re poor, or close to it, so they charge their cards up w/ clothes they can’t afford.

I’d rather dress smart and owe no one. But then, I don’t need the approval of others.

BTW, the girl in the photo looks like she’s about to go digging for clams, she looks like a fisherman out from sea ha! And she needs to give Jack Nicholson his 1980′s shades back.

i dont hear ppl talk about people with “rich stuff”

but i see people judge others by their clothes.

u can dress from walmart but still by the nicer cuter stuff!! you dont have to like wear the same shirt every day! Then it just seems like you don’t care much about how you carry yourself.

I know snobs that don’t wear expensive clothes, maybe they’re upset cause’ they spent so much money?!

since when was charlotte russe “cheap?”

@tifflawl@xanga - amen to that.

you’re fashionable where i come from if you shop at aeropostale, american eagle, hollister, etc.

we’re pretty sporty over here. and hey, i’m guilty.

not really, I just stare and admire their clothes/bag/whatever LOL. I don’t really give a fuck about what other people wear, because I know not everyone’s lucky enough to get new clothes every few weeks. As long as they’re clean..it’s okay.

Me personally? I’d rather get a bunch of clothes I like that are pretty cheap than save up and spend xxx amount of dollars on a really expensive jacket or something o_O. :3 Forever21 FTW. besides, I’m a student. I aint ballin, LOL

That just means people have no lives. If you’re stupid enough to make judgments based on superficial factors, then you obviously have absolutely no life, or it’s just a really pathetic one. I honestly don’t care.

I hang out with people based on their personality, I’m friends with people who spend tons of clothes, little money on clothes, people who wear all black, people who dress in drag, etc. I don’t care. It’s people’s personalities I’m more concerned about. Go figure.

I do judge people for wearing their clothing.

certain expensive brands make ugly shit. i’m no fashion guru… but even i know it’s ugly. the only reason people buy that shit is cause it’s a status symbol.

otherwise i don’t judge. i’m not up on fashion so honestly.. i don’t even recognize the brand names you listed… lol.

People spending that much on clothing are making insane decisions. That money could be used so much more practically. The only… excuse… I could believe is that they don’t know any better, they were raised that way.. but even that is hard for me to believe. Someone said something about Wal-Mart clothes not lasting? I disagree, I’ve bought clothing from Wal-Mart and it’s lasted me! Even if it didn’t, and say it got stained or something, I’d still be spending way less money if I had to buy that same article of clothing a dozen times.

I’m sorry that these rich kids get judged, too. That isn’t right. Which is true most of the time, though? That they are usually snobs, or they are misunderstood good people? Case-by-case, I suppose. But really, I have a hard time understanding why people spend so much more money than necessary on CLOTHING. How many times are you gonna wear hundreds of clothes? Are you gonna wear them when they are out of season? If I am missing something here, please educate me, I am all ears (no sarcasm).

I don’t get a bad impression from someone who buys their clothes at Kohl’s, JC penny, etc; it makes sense to me not to spend more on clothes than is really necessary.
I usually don’t have anything against people who have “nice,” more expensive clothes either.

But the people who spend excessive amounts of money just to buy a brand name so they can show it off do bother me.
When I see someone carrying a LV purse and wearing a Juicy jacket, I do tend to judge, because I feel like someone who is willing to spend that much money for something that’s clearly just a brand name is only making a shallow attempt to impress other people.

i dunno, never had that experience before..or heard of.. cuz we don’t hate, we just admire people in louie vuitton and versace haha

the reason some people became haters probably because they feel that the person did not earn to wear those? like spoiled? but that’s not for me to judge

i look like a hobo in highschool or when i go to work , and only barely presentable nowadays cuz i got a job to afford my own clothes.. but my personality did not change. i just look … more my age haha and not in hoodies and jeans that faded to near white

i don’t see what’s wrong with people wearing expensive clothing.. i spent one and a half week paycheque on a polo because i really like it and feel proud that i worked hard for it (even though i had to starve myself during those days). Wheras some people use those money to go out a lot or save up for their big goals like a car or house.. We all have our ways of spending.

lol im surprised im typing in lovelyish..omg am i the only one with a penls here? LOL

I get tired of trying to find something that fits, then buys some only to have them change fashions and go through all of that again! I like clothing that makes me look good.

I love clothes. In high school, I was poor. I didnt dress in expensive clothes, but I got picked on a lot. A lot of the girls at my school were seemingly rich, but I later found out that they were all just wearing fake versions of the real thing. So now I laugh. I would rather wear wal-mart clothes compared to fake designer junk.

I don’t judge someone based on their clothing, or fashion sense, or make up, or anything, but I do judge people based on their cleanliness and overall demeanor. I instantly know if I will like someone based on how they treat others, especially in public. I can pick and choose pretty easily. 

i’m interested in fashion, so i always keep up with the trend. no doubt, when i see a girl carrying a balenciaga bag, i’ll go like “hmmm… that’s a nice bag” and perhaps pass a judgement on the way she dresses. however, it’s all about taste. some rich people like to show off their wealth in horrible ways such as logos head-to-toe. i despise that kind. i greatly appreciate high street finds (such as h&m and forever 21) and vintage pieces.

so when i see a girl, i might start to notice the obvious brand names, but in the end i always rationally judge an outfit based on what i see and not what each piece represents. also, i usually do not associate the way someone dresses with their personality, but it can sometimes get to you and i’m only being honest here.

Well if I’m walking in a village of a third world country, I’d make sure my clothes are toned down..I rather not look obvious. Done it before. 

People like to play the elitist wannabe game all the time, but no matter what you dress in, you are still not one of those Olsen twins or Paris Hilton or whomever you want to pretend you are.  It’s all a stupid game of narcissism and skin-deep politics.  Some people outgrow it, some never do.  That’s why theater and art departments are cool.  Lots of creativity and usually too poor to give a crap or too rich to show it off.  And they read things like Emerson and Thoreau instead of watching American Idol and other assorted delusions.

um this post is gross

who says snob?

do they even use that word in the 21st century?

What I want to know is Why would ANYBODY spend 5,000 on a top?! WTF?! FOR A SHIRT?! Wow… w/e their problem!

lol I have never seen or experienced those judgements

This falls into the same category as ‘attractive girls who don’t talk to you are bitches’… I think it’s just a generic jealousy thing.

PLEASE!

The people who wear the so called average and below clothing get judged just as much. And it’s usually by the people wearing the “better” labels who think they are above and beyond for doing so. No one should be judging anyone by what they wear. But sadly we do. People will actually refuse to get to know you if you’re not wearing the hottest labels. I think that is a bunch of crap.

I don’t give a damn about labels. If I like the way it looks and it doesn’t hurt my wallet, it’s in my closet. Getting expensive stuff is a treat and a splurge for every now and then.

It is not okay. Not for the upper label to judge the lower and vice versa. Kudos to those who don’t do it. I never have and thank GOD. I’ve got a lot of diverse friendships for doing so.

I hope I can honestly say that I’ve never judged someone for wearing expensive clothes, but I was a high schooler once so there’s a chance I did.

However I’m not  sure people as a whole are familiar enough with designer & overall expensive brands to judge someone as snobby for wearing them. It probably has a lot to do with the attitude of the person wearing the clothes. I’ve seen plenty of items that look like they could be made by a hoity toity designer but they came from Target. Again, a lot of it probably has to do with how you carry yourself or your overall personality. . . 

i don’t think expensive clothing is a bad thing. as long as you’re not acting like you’re better than everyone because you have [insert shoes here], that’s a bad judgment

Wow seriously “nicer” clothes have to be expensive. You are the one judging people. No one has the right to judge anyone. And trust me I’ve seen seriously ugly clothes and they’re like $5,000.
Who the hell cares, I say everyone has the right to wear whatever the hell they want to wear and should NOT be labeled as “cheap” or “rich girl.” Seriously!

i don’t judge by clothes but i do judge on attitude and stuff. like if the “rich” girl was talking about the “average girl” like “Oh My God she is so f-ing stupid. she got a D- on the test!” And the “rich” girl got an 0. Then i would mark her as a preppy like stuck up b*tch. no offense but i hate it when ppl bully. its not nice. and half the time i hear ppl say stuff like that about MY friends which i take personally. And how can you tell the difference between wal-mart jeans and holister jeans? i mean seriously. its just pants. idc what i wear as long as i’m covered up. ok i may wear a pair of really mini shorts to school and have on a cute v shirt that comes down really low. (don’t worry i usually wear a tank top under it so its ok) and im called a slut. by the sluts and ik they’re sluts. they always talk like sluts

no

there will be haters where ever you go. people are just jealous you know? it shouldn’t matter how much you do or don’t spend on something. what matters is that people dress appropriately for their size/ shape. someone could have expensive clothes and it looks horrible on them, etc. snobbery shouldn’t be based on the price tag of their clothes either. it’s high school, people will get over it. most girls just dont have anything better to do.

I usually think faaake when it says GUCCI in big fat letters LOL no… but u can tell if they’re trying hard or not.

Unless the girl truly IS acting like a snob, people have no rights to trash her. They’re just haters.

i am in high school too, and i notice it is usually the ones that the “snobs” write off as “cheap” hating the people who dress in pricey stuff.  my friends vary and i tend to be moderator on the odd occasion they actually talk to one another 

this isn’t an expensive or snob post; this is a judgemental post.

plain and simple: don’t judge others.
