I don't think the clothes are Neiman's are particularly nice actually. They're sort of boring.

Even if they are boring their quality is higher than these shirts.

And I don't see Disney as going out on a ledge here at all. They have authorized retailers to sell *fun* shirts for a few years now. They're just now bringing this stuff to the parks; at a much higher price and no increase in quality.

They do it with food, why not do it with fashion?

Like I said earlier, quality is not much of a concern with me in this day of fashon moving at light speed.

To me, it is a departure from what they regularly carry at WOD, therefore it is a bit of a ledge - for them. For the rest of the world, no so much.

And, the price is comperable - or even less - than what is in boutique stores.

Whatever works for you. Personally if I am going to buy something that fun I want to wear/wash it more than once before it falls apart.

You originaly said Disney, which is what I was replying to. I see it as WoD finally catching up to the retailers selling Disney products. More of behind the times then ahead of them.

I can't make an educated comment to what is in botique stores. I prefer to create my own style then follow the fast and furious fashion world

I agree.

I do understand your point, too, BTD, about the quality. You can buy a suit at Neimans' and it will last forever. I actually have a Saks Fifth Avenue coat that must be from the 60's and it is damn cool and in excelent shape. No seam tears, no missing buttons.

But, oh my, the clothes they sell at some of those stores are so dull!!! I always ask my friends to let me know if I am wearing something too out there because I do not shop in the mom department. Not that I am flashy but I can't stand mom clothes.

I love the off the wall stores even though compared to most of their things I dress conservatively.

And I have to comment, most women I see wearing the Juicy pants have rather, um, er, juicy rears. What do thin bummed women wear? Hmm???

I thought I should come back and state this~ clothes from those dull stores have their place in the world. If you are a professional and that is the look you need to have, well, that is that. And, they will be worn and washed a lot so yes, good to invest in a quality wardrobe.

carry on.....

Well, there's nothing worth looking at there!

"Under Construction"?

Ya know, that is really it; what I will pay for anything. I have prices in my mind what I will pay for every single thing I buy. If something is over that I pass. Regardless if I have money coming out of my ears, to quote CP.

As far as the different fashion styles, I used to love doing all of the different trends! That was my fashion. I even had a lumberjack look. Unfortunately in my 'hood it was mistaken for a chola.

I love the different opinons and while I refuse to pay for things like that, I do respect that some people do.

"Princess".

The very sight of "princess" shirts make me cringe.
