The more brand you show, the the less taste you display as all you are doing is trying to "buy" taste because you think that they validate whatever you are wearing as tasteful... and especially distasteful when its a comom ordinary object that needs no brand and they want a brand on it.

We are all on a Porsche forum. One of the most over the top brands. Just saying it is funny when we can see trees for the forest. 

You missed the point Leawood, nothing wrong with top brands. Nothing wrong with buying a Porsche, a Ferrari or a Rolls.

Smiley I love top brands, also because most of them provide an excellent quality. Are there products with similar quality for less money available? Maybe but it is more difficult to spot them.

The problem is when you buy for mainly the brand display, specially in ordinary basic things that have equal quality no matter the brand, for example buying a simple t-shirt for 4 times the normal cost just to display a bling brand in the front, that shows no taste, it is the same t-shit with a brand stamped on it. Another example is when the person has no clue how to dress appropriately and covers himself with brands from head to toe (with visible logos, the more visible the better) because he thinks that the brand makes it OK then and compensates for his lack of taste. Another example is where the brand may be a fashionable brand but in this object it has no history or experience, for example sunglasses from a top brand that makes clothes or jewelry instead of a experienced much higher quality brand but less known (outside sunglasses), same with shoes, watches, etc.
