Are you better of buying lots of Penneys clothing or a few quality garments?

Outlets.

And online....

I find the crotch area in the cheeper jeans cause certain uncomforts.
Well worth the extra 60 - 80 euro for a better material and stitching.

Levis and the likes are around 70 -100 euro.

It's not 1992. :D:D:D:D:D

with jeans the only thing that matters is that they fit right, the jeans could cost a fiver or 200 quid.

shoes and coats are where you should be investing in quality, timeless pieces.

For items you want as good wear maybe go and spend extra but Penneys and the like are just as good and you can get a few of the same item for peanuts compared to the big brand stores in case of wear and tear or stains that won't wash out.

Potato sacks for the winter, bin bags for the summer.

None of that fancy ****. If you want to feel fashionable, create a few rips in them.

ETA: Oh, invest in a good woolly hat though. They're for life.

Unless you are an unusual size and cannot find well fitting clothes in the likes of pennys?

I don't know what you're asking me...

I never mentioned penneys by the way. I meant the high street in general.

I got a penneys pair for 8euro on sale a week ago. The fit is great and I was deligted at the bargain.

I have to say,years ago I wouldn't go near their jean as they were terrible but now they're great .

Although they're sizes are a bit all over the place and sometimes the fitting is a bit weird.

But if I can get a good fit all round then i'm all for them!

Clicked that video thinking "Penney's used to advertise?? I don't remember that!" As soon as I heard the singing that jingle came back to me. There was an uptempo version obviously on another advert. Awh.. Never connected the two.

Penney's is great because the stock changes so often and you can get basics for so cheap like vests, jammies, underwear, stuff for layering in Winter. Yay for Penney's!

A mixture of both. For men and women - For general everyday and casual wear, bedwear, penneys/dunnes is grand. For work wear and night out wear where ever that takes your fancy but to be honest its worth spending a bit more for those types of clothes for them to last and get good wear out of them but dunnes and penneys are handy too.

For women, awear, h and m, dorothy perkins, next and new look are good spots to go to other than river island, debenhams, topshop, warehouse, red herring, miss selfridges, ted baker, french connection, coast, oasis, monsoon which can be a bit pricey but good quality stuff, swamp is the best for going out wear for girls other than new look for both men and women, quiz, jane norman, lipsy (bit expensive but at least not as expensive as juicy couture), while debenhams/pamela scotts/coast are worth investing in for wedding wear say or special occasions depending.

Depends on your style like sporty/casual/trendy/comfy/high street. Like the case of gap, a & f/hollister, tommy hilfiger, CK, ralph lauren and the big brands like LK bennet, juicy couture, channel, prada, armani, d & g, gucci, and louis vuton only certain number of people can buy and wear.

While some things wear after a while you need to get new ones on the cheap but other things like footwear, jeans and jackets/coats its worth spending money on quality that last longer as they are things you wear the most and most often. Definitely if you want to get more than a few months-years wear its worth investing in good quality clothes but not necessary have to be expensive or top of the range stuff beyond a student budget say.

The likes of topshop, next and oasis and river island are worth spending money on. For cheap stuff new look and penneys, h and m. In between vero moda and awear. For winter/summer wear wise penneys and dunnes are grand. Always look out for bargains and sales stuff when you can.
