Point taken. But, you know what? Sometimes it's fun to don a silly logo tee. It's not always about being fashion forward– sometimes it's about being a little bit whimsical. :o)

I agree and sometimes its a rite of passage, like the old louis vuitton I have. there will never be an need to buy another, really how many do i need but that one time i thought it was an excellent investment and will pass it down to my daughter. other than that, i really hate someone all logo’ed out. that being said, i admit I’m always on the lookout for the chanel t yasmin sewell was shot in by scott schuman!

AMEN! AMEN! AMEN! It's crude, but more than that it's tasteless!

Fair! I hate when I see soooo many people all over the places with logos all over their clothing. ..hoping to be cool….

Definitely a rite of passage. My mom passed down her old Dooney and Bourke
purse to me when I was a teenager, and I'll probably pass down my old Coach
purse to my daughter someday– logos and all. :o)

Sure if you want to function as an ad hoc billboard for some multi-conglomerate.
But on the other hand- about the title of this book and by extension the person dispensing the info.
Only people without any use the word class or 'classy.'
