the thing is... a 340 dollars t shirt can't possibly make wearing it look good. To me if i can pull off a 10 dollar t shirt it's worth it. Paying 300+ for a t shirt and looking like a fucking sore thumb is not worth it.

Welcome to /fa/! if you stay here for longer than 2 weeks you'll become desensitized to the price of fashion and possibly partake in making expensive purchases.

you mean these ties?

I have a few of them, I wear them to various interviews they're built well but so many hermes ties are tacky, the orange ones, to the H knits to the scarf ties

and so so many of them have a red background

I only have 3 of these hermes ones all blue

yes i have a gold one so yeah, it does look tacky. One lady ask me if i'm going to some catholic school with the hermes tie i was wearing. lol sadly i just chose w.e tie and left for work that day. and yes i do look very young for my age.

That designer stuff becomes pretty acceptable in cost if you're getting used at 60-75% off.

around 150 for basics and a bit more for the more extravagant stuff (scratch and sniff jeans, glow in the dark jeans, thermochromic jeans). It's pretty cheap and great value for the quality

They put care into the way they make their jeans and they do a lot of crazy shit, like making the worlds heaviest pair of raw denim, scratch and sniff denim, glow in the dark denim, thermochromic denim, just as a few examples.
