Designer Clothes – The Juicy Couture Hype

I remember when Coleen Rooney was younger and she was just getting into her designer clothes. I remember seeing her parade around in her bright fluorescent Juicy Couture tracksuits and Ugg Boots, and she thought she was the height of fashion.

Fortunately, it didn’t take long until she saw the light and she started dressing like a WAG dripping in proper Couture. Gone were the Juicy Couture tracksuits, replaced with stylish fitted dresses and designs hot off the catwalk. It was then that we started to respect her (and became a little bit envious…).

Despite Coleen rapidly realising that the bright tracksuit look is soooo not “on trend”, many people still love Juicy Couture and all it offers. In fact, in America, the Juicy Couture tracksuit doesn’t have the same connotation that it does over here. In Britain, if you are seen sporting one of these velour tracksuits, you are inevitably tarnished with the “chav” name, because there are so many cheap imitations available these days, and who can tell the difference? Well, if you are a hardcore Juicy Couture fan, then there is no doubt that you will be able to spot the trademark “J” zipper, which is unique to Juicy and should indicate it is the real deal.

So, as far as Juicy Couture is concerned, i am sure we will continue seeing the hype, but I am curious to know if that will still apply to the novelty tracksuits that people seem to love. 

Check out the fabulous Juicy Couture for yourself, with all the latest designs (ships to the UK too!)

The Love of Designer Clothes

As a consumerist nation, we are forever looking for the latest must-have item, and this is quite often in the form of designer clothes. As a woman being showered with pictures of celebrities with the latest designer clothes, it can make us feel a bit “worthless” if we don’t buy the same. We aspire to these rich, wealthy celebrities, so we often want what they have.

However, with the Credit Crunch biting at our heels, are we going to cut back on our designer clothes spending? Hmmm…I’m not so sure. It might make our lives feel less “meaningful” if we can’t have the things we want. I know plenty of women who spend at least £500 a month on designer clothes just to be like their celebrity idol, but maybe if they can’t get the credit anymore, then this ridiculous spending habit will fade.
