Cheap, outsourced labor.
Ladybug:
But that's not exactly an American phenomena.. I mean, most of the plain t-shirts I used to buy from H&M were made in Bangladesh or another Asian country, but they still cost me about $20, if not more. And H&M is pretty cheap.
Lines:
It just has to do with monetary value, the economy, the location, and a bunch of other things than just labor costs. I'm sure an H&M in the UK would be way more expensive than the ones in the US. I mean, I shopped at the one in New York and I got shirts for under $10 a piece and it's all the same company.
sean:
Man, I have no problem getting jeans for around $30 dollars. I am confused by all of you.
Also shorts are lame. I will wear pants in 90 degree weather with shit-tons of humidity.

i need advice, dudes. i got this shirt because i was like "oh this will work with my pencil skirt!", but now that i've tried to wear them together i'm not so sure. like, i feel that the shirt poofs out, then is tight, then the skirt is tight... and it looks kind of funny with that band between the poofy part of the shirt & the top of the skirt. is it in my head? or does it just look dumb and i just shouldn't try to make it work?
the reason i'm dressed up all fancy-like is because i have to start interviewing for Real Jobs soon and realized i had to buy a bunch of new clothes because all my clothing is way not office-appropriate. my grades are not so great and my resume sucks, so my plan is just to try and look as good as possible and hope that my interviewer will forget about all that stuff and just hire me on the spot anyways based solely on my looks and fashion sense ;( basically what i am saying is that it is important that you all give me the cold hard truth!
here is what i wore today by the way. i'm not going to keep doing this unless other people join in too because otherwise it'll just be this embarrassing thread where i just post pictures of myself and everyone is like 'geez mooface get over yourself and stop bumping the thread you camwhore ugh".
ps sorry for all the weird cropping. all my photos came out at weird angles. i don't know how those myspace kids do it.
