    £10-30 for a t-shirt
    £40-70 for a sweatshirt/hoody or jumper
    £80+ for jeans.

    But thats probably averages.. if I found a jumper I really liked that was £130 and had the money there and then.. then I wouldn't hesitate to buy it. Whereas on other occasions I might see something quite nice for like £15

    But when it comes to jeans I only get more expensive ones so they last longer... Well, that's the plan.
    No more dreaming of the dead as the death itself was undone
    No more crawling like a crow for a boy, for a body in the garden
    No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so long
    No more dreaming like a girl so in love, so long
    Dreaming like a girl so in love with the wrong world.

    As long as I'm sensible and what I'm buying is proportionate financially, I have no issues with extremes. For example, I'm currently wearing casual footwear from Burton... £9 in a sale. My favourite jeans were £10 in a Topman sale. I'm a sucker for bargains. But on the other hand I have no qualms spending £30 on a tie. I could go and spend £2 in Tesco, but quality matters to me.

    One thing I refuse to do unless under exceptional circumstances: pay for the brand word. I buy quality and will pay a lot of money for it. I love quality items of clothing. However, I would not pay £50 for a belt with the word 'DIESEL' on the buckle when the same version with a plain buckle would be £15. Understated is fine by me. I have no desire for a Gio-Goi branded jacket: I would feel foolish and my friends would think I look ridiculous. If brand-bling mattered, I would see a lot of it every day. I don't see it. Brand-bling doesn't matter.

    Sorry, it was the example sat right on the top of my mind! (How are the spectacles?!?!?! lol..)

    But but but (now for a general point to everybody), why use the lower limit? Would you really not buy anything that was under £20, even if it was brilliant, because it is under £20? See usually, I would buy good value things like that, as long as the quality was present. Thus, the lower limit is redundant unless you subject yourself to snobbery. While I do fall victim to brand snobbery now and then, it's not the the extent that I see the need for a lower limit.

    Yeah, I've already said that I pay the price of stuff I like whether it's a £10 pair of jeans or a £60 pair of jeans.
