im really cheapmost my stuff is under £20 but I have some expensive jeans, t's, hoodies, shoes, trainers etc to expensify my cheaper stuff
![]()
£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.

erm i'll pay whatever for whatever i find nice, although i like quality! i can't stand wearing tacky stuff. usually...
t shirt 25-35
jeans anywhere from 40-90
shoes 50-70
it just depends though, i guess i'm sometimes a bit vein and pay for the label, but it's my preference so idc.
Sorry, it was the example sat right on the top of my mind!oh yeah just make it personal why don't you :@!

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