You're not actually supposed to tell people that.

so, uh, i have a pair of purple heels that i really love. they were 50 euro and they are my favorite shoes ever. about a week ago i wore them out and i ended up having to walk a lot on the cobblestones (which i didn't expect to have to do) and the heels got really scratched up and ruined. i was very sad.
yesterday i stopped by the shoe store where i had bought them and found that they were still selling them! for only 20 euro! and they had only one pair left in my size! so i bought them. i don't know if this counts as decadence because it's not like re-buying them was expensive. but i am well aware that i am pretty ridiculous because now i have 2 pairs of the same shoes: one to wear on cobblestones and another pair to "just sit there and look pretty".

If other people's posts are to go by then things like glasses frames are almost exactly the same except for a brand logo. I think for suits then it is the the quality of workmanship that counts. If you get a suit that looks great but isn't Armani it doesn't matter much. Hell if I found a suit from K-Mart that looked like an Armani suit and had a similarly high quality (assuming that Armani stuff is well-made, I wouldn't know) I would rather pay the $150 odd for it rather than whatever the price for the designer thing would be. The price tag isn't indicative of quality.

I know it was well over a page ago but this comment was annoying me .......... there is NO WAY you could get a suit from k-mart that would be the same quality as an armani suit (or any other pricey brand) what your paying for is an amazingly cut and tailored piece of clothing, in general the more you pay for a suit the better it is. Instead of having some badly fit poleyester blend suit that would look crumpled after a half day of wear, not be flattering at all, and likelyhood is will fall apart within a couple of dry-cleans you could instead choose to pay more money and have a merino wool blend suit made out of a fabric sourced from europe that is fully lined, cut to fit your body and will last years and years and still look amazing.
I know my more exspensive suits are my favourites because of the workmanship on them; the darts and pleats that make them look amazing... visual example
that (altho blurry) is a hot suit

Butts, I wish I had the money and a reason to wear a suit.
