lol yes...clothing is becoming expensive...but then why did you buy a skirt that cost $60 when you didn't even think it deserved the price? i would've saved the money and bought something else...

I was jsut looking at the bootlegger website it's it's like $85 for a pair of jeans!!! I'm like OMG. and just a few months ago I bought of pair of patns for $60 from AE and I thouht I looked good in them at the store...but when I got home I realized they were horrible about a week later and far too thin for my legs etc.  man I'm stupid  I jsut bought two t-shirts and a pair of guy shorts at AE, the t-shirts were $22 each but it was buy one get one 50% off so it was an okay deal, and I like hte shirts, but the shorts...I donno, I liked them at first and I mean I like wide stuff, or at elast I did a week ago but I jsut realized today that I look ridiculas, it' slike I change my fashoin from week to week and ti's jsut stupid, I always coem back to my fav pair of jeans and wear those for a couple a weeks till I go on a shopping spree again and buy something I don't like and always come back to those jeans, the jeans I got for $15 at saan store  I saw them again when I went back to buy mroe form that store and htey were on sale for $9 but I didn't buy them I mean it's being two of the same patns so it seemed so stupid at the time...but now that these ones are all ripped os I had to cut them into bermuda shorts I want another pair of the same ones...they are jsut so perfect for me, they ARE me and no the saan store close to my house is closed, it closed jsut about a week ago and I can't beleiv eI didn't catch their closing sales I should write a book on all my clothing problems...

Yep, most places are overpriced. Hot Topic is a cool place to shop, but the prices are O_O; I just shop at places I can afford and it isn't outrageously expensive.

That's why I go to Ross a lot. Clothing is considerably priced there. |

 You can't keep running from what you're trying to find. Group: Official Member Posts: 5,030 Joined: Oct 2004 Member No: 54,096 |
i heard that clothing prices were going to go down because of the mass production from china...
 i guess it just depends on the stores though

 Its hard for me to tell you Group: Member Posts: 734 Joined: Apr 2005 Member No: 123,326 |
Not that expensive here I don't think. Most of the tops I pay for are normally £10 ($19), I have 2 skirts and they to were £10($19). The jeans I buy are normally £20 -£25 ($38 - $48). Isn't really that expensive considering some stores charge ya £60 ($113) for some tops and trousers.

Ah, well, I'm poor, so, I shop at Walmart, and Fashion Bug, because they have major sales.
yeah, clothes are really expensive, and they shouldn't be, but if people buy them for that price, why should they reduce the price of the clothes?? right? |

yes.. i agree! clothes are getting so expensive. Hollister, Abercrombie, Forever 21.. their all getting so expensive & i can't afford that stuff! i know you can get really cute clothes at Old Navy, JC Penny's, Fashion Bug, H&M, and Walmart. They have decent prices.
that's where i shop atleast.

Agreed.
And if you buy like sale items, it's like not in style anymore. I went to Aeropostale and they were still selling JEANS for 40 dollars. It's almost summer and they're still selling jeans for 40 bucks. |

Yeah they are getting pretty dayum expensive. Deff the jeans. But one day I bought a white shirt that said "Naughty" on it and it only cost 15$ that's pretty good. Then some pants [not jeans, not cotton, and not the stretchy kind, more like jersey material?] And they cost 15$ I thought it was pretty good. But some of the jeans cost 60+ I'm like AAH.

Wrong forum.
If clothes are getting more expensive, wait for sales. The Limitted, Express, and Gap had sales up to 60% and a huge clearance this past week. |
