Yes, this article was written about two teenage girls who discuss high fashion brand names, but what else do you all know about them? For all we know they could very possible be straight-A students, very involved with community service, and helpful to their friends and family. They are beautiful young ladies who have plenty of time to discover who they are, so why do you all care so much if they look good while doing it? Let them be and stop spreading so many negative vibes regarding them.Daninoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15350975.post-41584736573329204792007-09-17T19:33:00.000-07:002007-09-17T19:33:00.000-07:00I am very disheartened, exhausted by apparel brand...I am very disheartened, exhausted by apparel brands. Before, you made a product that was good enough for some reason to get you noticed. These days, the label is *the* product, mostly tees with the company name/logo. Many entrepreneurs are *launching* as brands. It is very discouraging...<BR/><BR/>I have the deluxe book.

Do you want to add anything to the list?", does that count as a discussion of two brands?<BR/><BR/>Or would I have to specifically say, "We are out of tissue. Should I buy Kleenex or Puffs?"badmomgoodmomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11569728075698885020noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15350975.post-41691202026460679292007-09-13T23:39:00.000-07:002007-09-13T23:39:00.000-07:00Brands are such part of our lives that I think we ...Brands are such part of our lives that I think we invoke branding discussions a lot more than we realize. They may not be high fashion designer labels, but they are brands, nonetheless: Kleenex, Q-Tips, Prius, iPod, Levis, Safeway, Target, Google, Yahoo!, Microsoft. They are all brand names. Madison Avenue has succeeded in putting brand names into our everyday vocabulary. The battle has already been lost.Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12255104378892858573noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15350975.post-7312739426316303092007-09-12T13:15:00.000-07:002007-09-12T13:15:00.000-07:0070 conversations about brands per month would be e...70 conversations about brands per month would be excessive for me. I'm thankful for two things -- 1) I have all boys and 2) we live in a small town where "American Eagle" is the biggest brand name going.Juliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12675374131465749061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15350975.post-53442247653414802422007-09-11T08:07:00.000-07:002007-09-11T08:07:00.000-07:00Wow.
