So, as you are all aware [or not], Lululemon is a clothing store.

For a sweater at Lululemon, it is $98 [but water proof].



A yoga workout set is about the same price too.

It seems kind of outragous to me because you can go to Wal*Mart and get a almost identical sweater [without the brand] for possibly more than 50% off!

My question to you is...

How much are you willing to pay for a brand?

That's ridiculous. Any top, unless it were a coat, should never be more than $50.

For something like that, no, I wouldn't pay that much.

But for Lolita, I'm willing to pay the price for high-quality and good design.
I'm about to drop ~$130 for a blouse, for example.

If it's one-of-a-kind that you can't really get without buying brand, then I'm willing to pay the amount.
If you can get near the same thing [same quality, similar design] for cheaper, then I'm all over it.

[ 98$ for a sweater? Hell no. :/ x3'' It's not something
I'd want to buy, anyway. Yoga's cool, but I don't do it, currently, or
anything. ]

And the sad thing is that almost every gal ['cept for me, and my other friend] wears it, and wears it constantly!

No.
It's probably because I don't do yoga.
I don't care about the brand either, it's way too expensive.

I'm not paying any more than $40 for a sweater, skirt, or pair of jeans. I'm not paying more than $30 for a top. I'm not paying more than $50 for a pair of shoes, and I"m not paying more than $80 for a jacket.

No way.

I am willing pay a lot of things that are unusual or made for me. But if I can basically the same thing at Walmart heck no.
 
     
Seriously everyone stop having drama.

I will look at something, decide in my head how much I would pay for it tops, then I look at price tag and if It matches price or is lower, I try it on
I will pay about whatever for something I think is unique and fits my style
