I often hear, "You should never cheap out on a good office chair, shoes, underpants, backpack etc.." but what are some items that you would feel OK to cheap out on?
This can by anything from items such as: expensive clothing brands to general groceries.
Buying designer gear from outlets is something you should definitely cheap out on. 'Fast fashion' prices with designer quality. I'm not at all convinced the designer gear was ever worth the official price tag but I am very sure that it'll last longer because you can't sell a pair of leggings for £75 if they're going to fall apart or bag out instantly (or at least, you won't get away with it for very long). Getting those same leggings for a tenner is the way to go.
Sad to say, they still use the same sweatshops as fast fashion brands, they just pay more for the quality control. So you still need to care about how the brands conduct themselves.
Idk about designer, but Levi's 569 and silver tab are the only jeans I can stand. Also, apparently they're the only brand allowed to use the correct shade of blue. Idk why, but this kind of blue is important to me.
