Wed Aug 03, 2005 12:40 am Where Do You Shop (for clothes)? |
|
Hmmmm?
Department store? Brand-specific store? Wal*Mart?
I usually get my clothes from brand-specific stores, mostly Banana Republic and JCrew. But, if I'm feeling that I need just rec-clothes, its usually a department store, like Filenes, Lord&Taylor, etc.
How about ya?

About 80% of what I'm wearing on any given day is Old Navy.... but my mom usally gets our clothes. So... I guess even though I don't really shop for my clothes... I clothes shop at Old Navy.

Asda (UK Wal*Mart ), sometimes Tesco, charity shops.
The clothes Johny's mother bought for me are from Next, H&M and Gap.
For Sammie, it's normally Asda, Adams, Next, H&M, and very occasionally Tesco. Oh, and Woolworths. Her shoes up to now have come from Clarks and Next. She'll be getting some from Pumpkin Patch soon though, as they've got some lovely ones in.
I don't really care about brands. Asda do cheap clothes that are great quality. I love their baby/childrens ranges. Tesco's clothes are also cheap, but tend to either shrink or stretch in the wash. Adams, Next, H&M and Woolworths clothes all tend to be good quality, and at reasonable prices, especially in the sales If I'm looking for something more unusual, I'll go to charity shops. Never know what you might find there
As for the clothes Johny's mother got me... Next was the only place that did jeans that fit me, Gap had this vest top she liked on me, and H&M had this top I really wanted. The jeans were my Christmas present and the tops were my birthday present

I don't knoooooow, Fashion Bug is where I got some of my dressy, (for me), stuff, since J worked there, but I hate shopping. Sooooo, usually when I get new clothes, barring Pats and Sox shirts, , someone else has bought them for me.

I have done the "borrow some friends clothes and forget you have them" kind of deal. Usually I find a shirt a year later and realize that its not mine. But hey they do the same to me.

I get clothes from Walmart usually, and sometimes goodwill. My mom occaisionally gets me something from like...dillards or whatever, but she doesn't very often. I don't like to wear things that have advertisements all over them to begin with, so I don't like places like american eagle and tommy clothes. but w/e.

Marks and Spencers, Top Shop and sometimes Next or Dorothy Perkins. I haven't bought new clothes in about a year. I like to buy from internet companies too. Oh, and The Black Rose store in Camdem if I want to treat myself to something gothy.
I'd love to buy Joe Brown clothes because they look really cool, but they are very expensive, because they are kinda like designer.

Once in a while Kohls has some things I'd buy. I think I've gotten a track jacket from there once.

The polos don't have any advertising, just a little eagle somewhere around the pocket or in that area . (Polos make up the majority of my shirts.)

Thats okay then, I suppose. They should really be little polo players, though,
