For everyday work, life, and hanging out there is no need to buy expensive designer clothes at all. I feel this is sort of a waste of money and who cares what you're wearing. However, if you are an executive in a fortune 500 company it might be necessary to buy these types of clothes for work. They say that you need to dress for success. I have never been a person who loves to dress up in fancy clothes and especially ones with designer labels on them. I would much rather put on a pair of shorts or jeans and go out the door. I feel uncomfortable in these types of clothes so there is actually no need to spend the money on them. It is better to buy clothes that you feel comfortable wearing. I can see why people in the music or film industry will buy these types of clothes or even models. I feel they are good for them, but in everyday life, I don't find much use for them at all.
