People of that age are made to feel inferior if they are not with the technology and clothung trends. Let her enjoy it. Soon enough the responsibilities of adulthood will creep in and all the status stuff goes by the wayside. You be smart save your money for school or a business or for travel. God Bless :angel11:

I do agree with that completely even thought I have at times went with name brand for a few extra dollars to get better quality. I feel like if people are so worried about the brands I am wearing then they can just buy it for me.

I thought it was the reverse. I saw many young girls prefer to stick with name brand clothes than the mature generation. I found some brand names don’t necessarily make their clothes with the best fabrics that can last longer after several washes in the washing machine.
