do you buy brand clothes?i don't really like brand clothes,or shoes,or any other objects,first of all because they are expensive,and secondly,they might be of a better quality and last in time,but who wants to wear the same pair of shoes for 2 or 3 years,just because they are original?and i like to have new things at least once a year,so i choose cheaper ones..how about you?

I almost never buy brand/label/designer anything. If I do it's a very rare and special occasion. And I make my stuff last. I'll wear or use it into the ground.

For me it all depends on which type of clothes i am going for, if i am buying clothes which I would be wearing at home then i would go for anything. If i am buying clothes which i would be wearing at office then I go for brand.

Im not really into branded stuff but if its on sale (as in bargain) then i'll have a go with that. aside from you'll get a quality stuff which will last longer, you'll get more as well. A good value for the money.

Brenna in her Tommy overalls - She just loves her "farmer girl" overalls.  They are actually boy pants but she doesn't care.  A friend gave them to me after her nephew and then her daughter outgrew them.  I could never afford to buy Tommy Hilfiger for my kids so I took them.
I shop for all of my family's clothes at Wal-mart or Target. My kids have brand name stuff (like Levi jeans) but mostly I buy the store brand of stuff because it is cheap. Same with mine and my husband's clothes. I rarely ever buy stuff for us though--maybe once every couple of years I will pick up some new t-shirts or something. Mostly I buy stuff for me when I need it (ie--my clothes all have holes or stains). I do buy name brand gym shoes for myself (I have Nikes right now) but I make sure they are last year's style and are on sale. The kids shoes I get at Wal-mart or Payless because they get new shoes every few months. My kids do have the more expensive designer labels in their drawers. Just the other day my daughter was wearing a pair of Tommy Hilfiger jeans. She also has some from Gap and Ralph Loren. They were all hand me downs from a friend. I tell people if you see anything from Gap, Old Navy, Children's Place, Gymboree, Tommy or any other designer on my kids then they were gifts, hand me downs or I got them at the Salvation Army.

For myself I buy cheap stuff, but for my kids I buy better quality clothes. If I buy walmart stuff, then my son gets holes in the knees, breaks the zipper, or things get pilly and worn looking after being washed in hot water to get our grass and mud and food. Little boys are rough on clothes! My daughter grows slowly, and if I buy her good quality clothes, I know they'll fit her for quite a while and be worth the money spent on them. But I still try to only buy the nicer stuff on clearance, or at the consignment shop.

Same here, I also like to buy cheaper things as branded things are alot expensive here in Pakistan. I am a little lucky in this regard that I buy cheaper things and they turn out to be a little more reliable than I assume. I mean they keep on going for a little more time period just like my shoes, pair of jeans etc. Some people have craze to buy and wear only branded stuff but I am not into it.

If it is a general topic(if u didnt specify clothes here) ...i go for quality...as we cannot change wife/husband everytime...thinking that we r getting bored of her/him....U too look for a MAN WITH GOOD QUALITY...right? Talking abt ur topic(Clothes)...if u bought a non-branded dress which u liked very much...then u hav to search for the same dress after an interval...as u love it to hav one mor of the same type n this piece had wored out.... think got my point....Based on the design n love on the dress...it varies..u cant stick to one all the time...i mean quantity..
