Granted, MOST of the threads here are pointless and full of spam. Usually, we only get a few a day so it's not an overload. Not to mention, and I'm sure that you are just being overly sarcastic, but people don't take kindly when you go in the love and relationships thread and say such shallow things. That's just my personal opinion.

and joe cooler, none of you know my justifications for my clothing habit, so how can you judge them?

I dont recall judging you. I was speaking my mind on why I thought others were. However I will say you did act a bit full of yourself when you first returned to the board and i'm willing to bet some people took offense to that. Being in a constant state of joking can get you into trouble as I'm sure your aware.

i can understand this.

this is not meant to be a joke, by the way.

but yeah...i dont buy deisgner clothes unless its on an insane discount and im REALLY in love with it because i haev a short attention span when it comes to clothes and i usually tire of things fairly quickly. I think the end result needs to be good, so I focus more on the entire outfit than just the CLOTHES.

and here si where expensive shoes ocme in...my outfit on any given day will be this : shirt=$18 from froever21 pants=$4.99 from macys earings=$3.98 from forever21 handbag=$75 from where ever and boots-$785 from christian dior.

when the entir eoutfit is pulled together, it looks like EVERYTHING is designer all because of that ONE pair of shoes. suddenly, everything looks insanely expensive and you look like you know what youre doing. not to say that if you look expensive you look good, but if you are dressed nicely anyway, the designer-ness only adds to it.

and i guess everyone has different ideas of whats worth it and whats not. i love music, but i think buying a $14 cd is a huge waste of money and dont think twice about buying $400 shoes. my friend will buy a sweater from guess and think she got an awesome deal because she spent $50 on it and i think its retarded to buy a $50 sweater! so anyway....everyone has their passions and everyone has a right to spend money on whatever it is their passion may be. its not like theyre spending your money. theyre spending their OWN.

and another thing i never understand ishow ocme its ok for people that arent too into fashion to look down on those who like to dress up, but when someone who likes to dress up passes a comment on the avg scrubby girl, all the sudden that person is a "snob" like, i NEVER understood that. isnt that a little hypocritical??

hmmm..anywayyy...heeh melissa, i just wanted to help you understand the theory behind expensive shoes. haha. hope that helped 8-)

people who spend $200 on 1 freakin pr of jeans are retarded. a guy yelled at me for bout 20 minutes today cause he did and ended up getting sent the wrong pr and whoever he talked to told him it would be two weeks fro mwhen he returned to us which is wrong so i got to listen to him yell at me and say the same thing 20 minutes before i could get him to shut up. i sooo wanted to hang up on him

grrrrr! i swear it's always the people who spend way too much on clothes who are the mean ones!!

i don't understand buying expensive shoes though unless:

1. If you have the money and want them, whatever
2. If they are very comfortable
3. If they will last you many years

I am sensible when it comes to clothes, though
