Re: Are YOU a Label Whore?

seriously though...COACH really isn't a label. I think a label to be like Louis Vuitton, Marc Jacobs, etc. Things that aren't moderately priced.
OK, I'm ready to get flamed...
I have to agree

See I feel like and I quote" they paid the little Malaysian girl the same $1 to make my Bogo shoes as they paid her to make my Coach bags" So, I guess I can be but I'm not picky.

Not flaming you but that all depends on what someone thinks is considered "moderately priced" for some spending $20 on a bag is good enough as long as it serves its purpose so spending $200 is not justifiable.
There are some Coach bags that are like $600 or so which is comparable to some LV bags. But yes usually LV is more.
For me I also have to like the style regardless of the brand. Some of the top/$$$ designer bags are so funky, I wouldnt wear it even if I got it for free.

I tend to spend more on money on classics and less money on trends
I love to get labels on sale- I feel like I won the lottery-
I got a $600 theory suit for $250- I wanted to shout it from the roof tops!

I see where you are coming from and basically agree.
However, when you read in magazines about "designer labels" and stuff like that, I don't think Coach is in the same category. Although, don't get me wrong, I LOVE Coach.

Re: Are YOU a Label Whore?
Nope, not a label whore. And frankly,**jumping into flame retardant suit** I find it quite shallow and - dare I say it - ghetto, when people brag about what labels they own and are wearing or are "going" to buy just for the sake of label-name-dropping.

I agree. I feel that if you are going to buy it, just buy it. Don't buy it just so you could tell everyone about it.

You can make an oufit look good without all the labels.
Some magazine does it, Splurge or Steal...could u tell the difference??
I dont own anything too expensive but will do certain brands for certains reasons, and fit is one of them.

I agree- I would never buy something just b/c it has a certain label- just like I would never NOT buy something b/c it doesn't have a designer label

I agree with both of you. With some things I am, with other things I am not.

Re: Are YOU a Label Whore?
Nope. I don't own anything from high end designers. As much as I love bags, I refuse to spend $500+ just b/c of the brand. As much as I love to shop, I'm not going to spend hundreds or thousands on a few items when I should be saving that $ for a down payment on a house.
I guess I'm a label whore for the moderately priced stores. I love coach and most of my clothes come from the same 3 or 4 stores.
