[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t mind and I genuinely like some designer pieces, but[b] I confess I don’t understand a lot of label-obvious pieces, like a sweatshirt that says “GIVENCHY,” or a tote that has the two huge Chanel interlocking Cs. [/b]

I think that Van Cleef Alhambra earrings are objectively pretty, for example, even though they are obviously from a designer label. Whereas interlocking Chanel C earrings just…aren’t beautiful. I enjoy beauty for beauty’s sake, whether it is a Tiffany silver cuff or a no-name silver cuff.

A lot of times I wonder, why the label and not just something pretty? Who is impressed by a sweatshirt or a baseball cap that has a designer logo? [/quote]

You "don't understand"? Or you are contemptuous of it? I doubt you truly "don't understand" the appeal of a Givenchy sweatshirt. You just feel the need to put yourself above it. [/quote]

I truly…don’t understand why people think a GIVENCHY sweatshirt is a flex. I get why a Birkin is a flex. I get that a luxury car is a flex. I truly don’t understand a designer sweatshirt. Because it’s not a flex even though it is apparently intended to be?

Ok. So here you are proving that you fully understand why people wear sweatshirts with a designer name on them, and also proving that you just want to emphasize how you know "it's not a flex" whereas they "apparently intended it to be"?

You probably shop at Talbot's and are all "why do people wear GIVENCHY sweatshirts?? I don't get it?? Blah, blah, blah." Go wander off to Chico's, lol.  [/quote]

Gee, I wonder who has designer sweatshirts and baseball caps and is just now figuring out they’re not landing as intended? Defensive much! LOL. If you want to look like a Real Housewife versus those of us who actually know and invest in quality and style, by all means. [/quote]

PP here. I have zero "designer sweatshirts" and have never worn baseball caps. Not at all defensive. Just calling it. But I knew you were shopping at Talbot's. Hilarious. Go on with your bad self and your "quality and style." We can all picture it, I assure you. [/quote]

I’m the other poster who doesn’t understand…I can assure you I would never shop at Talbots or Chico’s.  I bought my favorite leggings from TEMU, 5 pairs for $20! I still look fine because I have very long legs and a naturally lithe figure, but I rarely wear makeup and have never colored my hair.  I would look absurd in a fancy sweatshirt.

I don’t give much thought to my looks.  I haven’t worn a real bra since COVID, I only have a few Amazon sports bras to my name.  I don’t care what other people do, but I don’t think someone whose hobby is shopping or who cares about that kind of stuff is likely to want to be friends with me.  I’m more the boho outdoorsy nerd type.[/quote]
I am not one of the glossy impeccable types being discussed here, but as gently as I can I’d like to suggest that boho is more than unkempt hair, and Temu leggings + Amazon sports bras as dailywear is pretty antithetical to it. [/quote]
