I’ve literally never had this problem. Growing up poor made me not give an F about that stuff.
Same with me. No need to waste your money.
Personally, I don’t think it’s necessary. You are not in a frat.
I enjoy designer goods, but really your clothes, shoes, accessories don't have to be that expensive. Buying secondhand and getting relationship with a good tailor goes far.
I was told I don’t dress well enough to be in ibd. All complaints on how I dress stopped after I invested in better clothing and designer things
Don't need designer everything but would recommend a couple pieces like a belt, shoes... I honestly think getting a tailored suit (e.g., Indochino) looks better than a brand name suit that doesn't fit as well. The one big thing I had to upgrade was my Honda Civic though
Indochino for the win.
Lots of people struggle with that and it’s great that you’re seeking help here !
The root of the problem is self esteem. I would focus on addressing that.
Wearing well ironed neat cloths , fit body and good confidence can make you stand out. Real people care about real qualities , not logos .
You sound like Patrick Bateman but low self steam version since you don't want to look better than everyone, you want to look like everyone. Just buy what you can afford and make it look good. No one is paying that much attention to you and they don't know the brand unless you tell them.
