La Redoute Men’s Wear: is Just Branded Clothes Preferred by Modern Men?

In today's economic climate there has to be a line between spending wisely and wasting money. Fashion switches and changes all of the time and there is a simple solution to how you can keep up with the times without having to spend a fortune. There are designer clothes, branded clothes, and then there are the bargains.

The bargains tend to be of low quality and so that great saving that you made could end up going on buying another replacement piece of clothing. This means that it wasn't such a bargain after all because you've ended up spending twice the amount and could have opted to choose a designer piece of clothing in the first instance and pay the same for one piece of clothing that will last as long as it should.

In keeping with this thinking it begs the question about the preference of men in relation to fashion and branded clothing. Branded clothing, such as La Redoute men's wear, allows the shopper to purchase a piece of clothing that is of high quality, but without the designer label. Is that label really worth the price tag? Branded clothing is usually found to be of the same high quality as designer clothing and comes in a wide range of style to match as well. Would you consider spending money on a perfectly good shirt without a logo, or would you pay extra for the same shirt, just for the designer label?

Different Activities

It's already Monday night and I just arrived home. My husband and I have watched Expendables 2 -recommended to action movie fans- and shopped some required stuff. Yesterday we visited my therapist; he said that there's a good progress for my health condition. 

Lots of blue graves. The man brought a box in blue.

   A man with heavy weights to carry. There were also blue standing sacks in the dry field far behind.

I still have some pictures from our last trip; all taken from a moving car. We passed through several villages and captured some activities of local people.
