What’s the Point of Expensive Brands? | LOH 303

in Ladies of Hive4 days ago

Hello everyone, welcome to my blog. I am back with a new topic. So, the most overrated luxuries thing I see is spending a huge amount of money on branded stuffs such as clothes and designer bags. I feel people think that they need these things to prove that they are successful or to show off.

My question is, "Why do they even buy those things?" Does our attire really increase our status? I don't think so, if someone's personality isn't good and they are not a good person I don't think a designer bag or clothes could hide that. I would buy anything that looks good, I don't think it has to be from a well known brand. We buy different type of clothes because we want to look good sometimes for ourselves and sometimes for someone else. But I think it's a foolish thing to buy a bag for 50k or 1lac taka. You can get a good quality bag around 5k to 10k taka, you don't need over pay to get a exclusive looking bag. What's in with the name? It will fade someday and another brand will come up after that. Do you want to continue to keep switching?

I don't think that's what an wise person would do. We are only giving them profits not only that, I would say it's extra profits. Even whenever celebrities wear those branded clothes I have seen fans going crazy to buy it. But I think it's insane just because your favourite celebrity brought it, doesn't mean you have to get it too. I don't understand these obsession of people, glorifying someone more than themselves.

I believe people will remember how I was as a person and how well I treated them. Not the name written on my clothes or bags. To me, real luxury is having peace of mind and staying happy and most importantly spend money wisely. Any good looking clothes or bags are enough for me. I don't need a famous name attached to it.

You're very welcome, @rayhanhiveman! 😊

You are spot on! We have a saying; "keeping up with the Jones' " is so pointless! It doesn't really say much about a person except that they could be foolish for spending a ridiculous amount of money on something just because of a name on it, or because they need to keep up with their neighbors or friends. Quality might matter, but just because it has a 'name' on it, doesn't guarantee it's quality! And, it definitely won't hide any personality flaws!

Thanks for sharing and have a lovely day!

Exactly! A brand name can’t replace quality or personality. At the end of the day, it’s better to buy what you genuinely like and can afford rather than spending just to impress others. 😊

Exactly! Take care!

'They' have the power of Advertising and a very crafted target branding strategy accompanied by the all seeing Google, and they know what you like, will somehow convince you that you will NEED to buy. Marketing make us irrational. So don't accept those website cookies.

Absolutely! Advertising is incredibly good at turning a “want” into a “need.” Sometimes we don’t even realize how much we’re being influenced until we stop and ask ourselves, “Do I really need this?” 😅

@rayhanhiveman People who are interested in material things lack knowledge and humility.

I agree to some extent. Material things aren't bad by themselves but when they become a way to measure someone's worth, that's where we lose perspective. True value comes from character, not possessions.
