[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]No way I'm going to spend 600-1000 on any article of clothing. Have you every heard of Loehmann's?[/quote]

Yes, I have heard of them. Most stuff there is ugly. It's not about the brand, it's about quality though the two are correlated. I would always much rather buy a full price item at Banana Republic or J. Crew rather than "good deal" branded crap from a discount retailer. And I own several Burberry trenches and jackets (not the quilt, of course, which doesn't flatter anyone) so I do believe that, on average, brands make better clothing.[/quote]

I'm the PP quoted above. If this works for you, that's great. My HHI in under 150k a year we have three kids. No way I'd want or be able to spend a grand on a trenchcoat. I also feel it's unnecessary. I bought a very nice, classic one last week for less than $200. Just because a label says Burberry doesn't make it better than one that says something else. I find this is especially true if you stick to classic neutral colors like navy, beige/taupe or black. This is just my opinion of course -- I just feel the classic preppy look is easily achieved even on a budget.[/quote]
