ps i shop at kohls and jcpenney and not to sound ghey or anything, but i like it when things are on sale so i don't have to fork over so much money. granted i'm not like, "OMG THERE'S A SALE AT MACY'S TODAY!" *waves hand*, but if i'm at a store, and i notice there are two things that i like....and one is on sale or cheaper than the other or is on sale....chances are i'll buy the cheaper thing.
pps, i think i've boughten a few shirts from urban outfitters, and a few pairs of sandals....but they were still all under $20. so yeah.
We're all different man. Ive spent $400AU on a d&g t-shirt. Why? I like fashion, some people spend $20,000 turbocharging their cars! Or get drunk every weekend $200 later, i don't do those things.

Maybe, but alot of my mates spend $200 in 1 night drinking. At least I know no one will be wearing the same t-shirt/shirt as me! But i have calmed down alot lately, it is a waste of money! But what isnt! Gotta enjoy life

400 Aussie dollars is around 150 GBP most expensive shirt I own cost me about £100. If somethings stylish, it's suits you, and it's going to last a while it's well worth forking out the cash on it.
I don't rate D&G to be honest, I went in their shop in Florence there wasn't much on offer that I liked.

lol @ hundreds of dollars for a t-shirt
my hands-down favorite t-shirt i searched long and hard for and finally found it on ebay and bought it for....$8.
imagine this in old-skool gray and more of a worn look:
said shirt has been featured in the music videos for blur - song 2 and the new radicals - you get what you give, as well as sarah silverman's recent movie jesus is magic, always worn inside out cause disney is a bitch
it looks like someone dunked a nice white pepsi shirt into a mixture of pepsi and piranhas!

quite a few. If you travel to italy, france and other places where fashion is a big deal... you will see it alot. v-neck tshirts never made it in the states, and personally i think they are pretty lame. also, the styles are quite flamboyant. as far as calling that stuff trendy, i wouldnt call it that at all... because the people that wear that stuff is quite minimal.
