Do you have a stereo-type for people who wear brand names, designer clothes and accessories? some think they are snobs and i'm just wondering what you think.

yeah it sucks to see these different groups and it also sucks that people classify you because of what you wear and buy

I hate the idea of imposing a single personality trait on a group of people. I wouldn't mind if you said that they were "a group of people who wear brand name, designer clothes and accessories" but to say they are snobs is unacceptable. The clothes don't make you a snob. How you present yourself to others make you a snob.

Most designer labels are usually just nicer and better quality. I'm not a fan of dressing in only designers like guicci or LV. It does come off as snobby.

I don't think that just because someone wears high priced name brands means they are snobby. It seems to be the majority though. Some people just prefer certain brands of clothing.

I see how people stereo-type it in to snobby. As for me, I don't think that all people who wear designer brands are snobby, they just have more money and care to spend it.

actually i think it's pretty pathetic when girls have FAKE designers since they're basically saying, "i want to come off as rich and snobby so here is my fake louis vuitton purse."

How you present yourself to others make you a snob. ^ I agree! There are a bunch of people at my school who wear designer brands and almost everyone wears Hollister/A&F/Abercrombie/American Eagle/Aeropostale. Then there's a bunch that also wear Ecko Red and other brands. Also, you've got those who wear clothes from Blue Room/Sun Diego (Volcom/Hurley/Matix). I haven't really seem people wear much Juicy Couture. There is a trend going on here, but how one presents themself is the huge factor in all of this. Just because they wear designer brands doesn't mean they're snobby--I know a girl who wears LV, Coach, Arden B., 7's, etc. and she's really nice. The ones that ARE snobby are the ones that constantly criticize others who don't wear designer brands or always compare lol. Eek I've had my share of those snobby people, and they're usually fake--they make a big deal out of one thing... -_-" |

yea i'd say people at my school are stereotyped
the preppies -- the ones who always look perfect and all the guys like them... yupp. and some of them pretend to be stupid the wanna be preppies -- they just wish they were popular and follow the preps around like a puppy dog goths popular skaters druggies thug people band/choir people semi punk people full on punk kids who think everyone else is a poseur. lol. idk. i dont like sterotypes, but thats life. |

just because they wear expensiv stuff, i wouldnt think of them as snobs... rich, and maybe spoiled, but i dont think wat they wear should interfere w/ thei personality.
