It was a weekend,  and with nothing to do at my apartment, I decided to go to the mall and do some shopping.  I called up a friend to come with me, I liked going to the  mall with a friend, someone to talk to and ask about her opinion about things, like if a particular top looks good  on me and such.

After my friend agreed to go shopping with me, I took a shower and dressed into my most comfortable outfit, a shirt, jeans and my Adidas shoes.  I love my Adidas shoes, they were comfortable and perfect for long walks.  I also wore my Breitling replica watch, it was like a genuine Breitling watch, that every time I wear it, I got nothing buy compliments.  At the mall, my friend was also wearing her Breitling replica watch, we bought our replica watches at the same site and at the same time, we only ordered different models.  After hours and hours of walking, we found ourselves at Christian Louboutin, my friend and I simply adore his red sole shoes, that we ended up buying each a pair that were on sale.   We then ate and headed back home.

Casual wear here is defined as clothing that you can wear in public without being anything formal. Thus, there are at least three types of casual wear. The first is athletic wear, like NFL jerseys. These are clothing that is worn when some physical activity is expected where high durability against dirt and damage is required. The second type is the bit more expensive leisure wear, like Lacoste polo shirts. These are worn when a bit more refinement is required, like when visiting family and friends. These are the “good shirts”, presentable and yet comfortable. The third is fashion wear, like Ed Hardy apparel. This third one is used when some attention grabbing is desired, or some form of statement needs to be made. This can be expensive but then fashion often is.

Note that these definitions are not strict rules. They are more like guides in choosing appropriate clothing for the occassion. The price range is so varied for the all three types that cost should not be a factor in purchasing them. Comfort and personal preference should be the overriding rules to follow.

It is said that imitation in the sincerest form of flattery.  Copies or replicas of popular or special items fall into this category.  For example, many priceless art items such as paintings are replicated to allow ordinary persons to view and appreciate the masters.  Replicated too are signature items such as Louis Vuitton bags. Thus, a bag may look and seem like an LV bag, but it not real.  In this way, people with limited disposable cash are thus able to enjoy the chic and prestige and name of an original LV bags.

Another marketing style would be an alternative form of imitation  is to just copy the styles without claiming the label.  Thus, one offers the same or styles as more popular brands at less cost.  An example would be True Religion jeans.  One other marketing style is to carve out a niche or specialty and from there, build a name.  UGG boots fall into this category and offers potential buyers many options for choosing to buy from there.  Whatever the strategy, buyers are enjoined to read up on the vendors they shortlist and find out about them from whatever way they could.
