What labels and brands (if any) do you judge people on?

What has that got to do with labels?

I still wear X-Worx jeans. Yeah, unf unf unf!

I wasn't allowed wear x works

My mam thought only gurriers wore them and she didn't want me to be a gurrier. Wouldn't have been able to afford them anyway but for Christmas clothes I thought she might stretch to it but no. Not a hope of it.

She bought me an x works polar neck in a charity shop when they had gone out of fashion :pac:

It's just crazy money for headphones that don't even look good (I know how they work is more important but they could at least look less cheap-ass!)

The thing with Apple too is the cost - that's probably what bothers people. But you get what you pay for, it's a good product. As long as those who are fans of Apple aren't sneering at those who don't use Apple products, not an issue IMO.

And they are just so chunky and big looking. You could be forgiven for thinking they are headphones that came out in the early ninetys. I doubt they feel any bit comfortable either.

Jacks & Jones - a bit of a lad, drinks Budweiser, reads The Star, goes "on the pull" with the boys, wears his J&J t-shirt with J&J bootcut jeans, has the Paddy Power app on his phone (probably a Samsung Galaxy), a Chinese at least once a week, works as a plumber or van driver (delivers food on some evenings as a side venture), supports an English club, has a big dog, has been to Citywest for the darts, plays 5-a-side football in Astro Park...

Nothing wrong with the guy, don't get me wrong, but I think this is the typical customer.

juicy couture (spelling?) velvet track pants = slut. doesn't really have a demographic, just a complete slut you can do what you like with, carte Blanche free for all, head straight for brown town when she's got those trackies round her ankles down a lane way or in the disabled toilet of a tescos.

:pac:

But how do you really feel?

I buy clothes as alternative to walking the streets naked.

Not everyone makes a conscious decision to dress 'fashionably'.

Hidden Cyclone · 10-08-2014 09:50PM

Before Beats and other associated ear muff type head phones my response would have been along the lines of:

Not really brands that make me think people are ****ing idiots just ****e like collars turned up, wearing runners with suit pants (you know the ones I'm on about) lads who don't take their earphones out when talking to someone etc etc

But **** me those cants who wear ear muff type head phones do my head in. Especially when worn round the neck indoors (pubs especially).

Oh and also people who wear hats indoors and wooly hats when it's not cold

It's only for nights out for me - brushed hair is as glam as it gets for work. :pac:
Putting on make-up is actually an enjoyable ritual of a Saturday night.

Putting on makeup is a chore weekdays and a pleasant pastime at weekends for some reason. I might break out the mascara weekdays if I'm feeling extravagant, otherwise it's bare-faced cheeks mon-fri.

I never buy high end skincare or makeup. The ingredients are generally identical, it's just the perfume or texture that changes. L'oreal own brands from Maybellene to Keihls to Garnier to Armani and Lancome, the products are made in the same factories and different packaging and perfume used and price tag applied as applicable.

Any obvious logos are judge-worthy as far as I'm concerned. I hate to see the full complement of logo'd bag, sunnies, t-shirt and shoes. It just shows such an unimaginative streak.

People who sit in Gloria Jeans drinking fancy named coffee that they had never even heard of before they just saw it written on the menu.Especially if they are male and have a perm/curly hair.

I thought Gloria Jeans was a brand of denim I'd never heard of.

Google taught me.

I see lads walking round here with their fancy cans of Dutch Gold, thinking they're it. I highly doubt it is really Dutch and the gold content is probably waay exaggerated too.

Fancy cans of Dutch gold? Don't be having me on. If Dutch Gold is fancy, I'm the pope.

That's not label flaunting in fairness, it's just a presumption by you.

The 8.4 percent was fancy when it first came out.

No problem. What size are ya? Not sure if they'll fit you, I have a transport box jobby going on, if ya know what I mean?

Mind = Blown. The only think I associate with Dutch gold is Fred Perry, air max nike runners and dudes that have caps but don't really want to wear them, so they are half on, half off their heads.

Not really, have you seen the price of their coffee? Topaz coffee is just as good and almost half the price.

What labels and brands (if any) do you judge people on?
