“What people do is more important than what people wear.”

Some people are so judgmental in terms of what a person wears. When I was I college, I don’t indulge myself wearing signature or branded clothes. I can just wear a shirt, a pair of jeans and a pair of sneakers. There is one time when a classmate of mine had scrutinized me for not wearing a popular brand of clothes. At some point, he puts me to shame with our circle of friends. He is trying to push me away because I do not belong to their group.
I ignored his way of pulling me down. I don’t follow fashion trends and continued to study hard to finish my university. I graduated on time. This friend failed so many subjects and eventually, he can’t handle the situation and decided to drop out from school.

As long as the clothes are clean, presentable, and appropriate, the brands really do not matter.
it is the person that makes the clothes not the other way around.

No I certainly do not judge by outer clothes or outer appearance.
It is the biggest mistake to do so.
Good you went ahead and did well and this friend was a flop.

i don't even wear signature clothes, just simple ones and even hand-me-downs from my brother.
no, i don't judge somebody by their social status, but how they deal with me.

During my school days, I was so simple and not follow the trend during that time. I cannot able to sustain being invisible. I humbly say that I am known as one of the brightest students in the class. Regardless, I stay away from these people and ignore their bad comments towards me.

Why should you judge a person by their clothes? Just because someone is wearing an expensive pair of shoes, does not mean they are rich. They could be one who does know how to budget and spends $150 on a pair of shoes and then starves for months, or they could be a Thrifty person who knows how to bargain shop with Clearance or Consignment, Thrift Stores or eBay. But either way it is not the clothes, it is the inside of a person that counts.

I agree. The beauty from within is the most important. When I was in college days, some of my classmates are into fashion. They make fun of my clothes. But I don't mind because it is not the clothes of what teachers usually give for having high marks in subjects. Most of these classmates of mine had failed or even product of dop outs.

Most people are judgmental and fall for outward appearance. First impressions are not always right. Personally I prefer to get to know the person before forming any kind of opinion about him or her because sometimes people surprise you.

Thankfully most don't as far as I can see.
It is the whole package that matters with our attitude that decides our altitude in life.
As long as my clothes are clean and presentable I am comfortable in them.
Not at all obsessed with brands and not a slave to them - siva
