We've had sort of the opposite experience- Tori has actually had people make snarky comments because she wears nice clothes. Not Chanel-nice, but stuff from the Limited Too, A&F and American Eagle. We get just about everything on sale so it's not like we spend a fortune on her clothes, but I've had other parents and their kids comment on what a clothes hound she is. These same people think nothing of dropping tons of money on sports clothes, which we do not do. I know when she hits Junior High the dynamic will change and the higher labels will be more conspicuous, but for now most of her peers are all over the place fashion-wise.
