I usually try to veer away from buying things solely for the brand name, but there are a few brands that I tend to like. Some of the brands I can name off the top of my head are Wet Seal, PacSun, Baby Phat, RocaWear, Nike, and New York and Company. Though I've been known to shop at thrift stores and even a few illegal clothing stores in the past...
All my pants come from Pacsun because they are comfortable. The rest, wherever.
...
I buy the clothes I like.. I don't care about brands and such.
So much for being a hippie and hating the corporate world, eh Laddy :rolleyes2
I buy my clothes from clothes shops. I don't give a monkeys whether it's made by some cool designer or whatnot, I just want to wear the damn thing.

Whatever looks good and feels good. I'm all for the cheaper stuff. I currently have a lot of stuff from Jacks Surfwear. By a lot I mean 4 items of clothing. Clothes are clothes, I don't care.
I'd like to get into Gothic Attire... That stuff reaches into the hundreds/thousands though![]()

I like some Delia's clothing, but even the small sizes are too big for me.
I don't stick out with my clothing style,however pretty soon I'll be wearing original Rodarian branded clothes.
Tranc'd you're going to be on my special client's list once I get all the financial agreements into action...
I wear anything unique..Nothing totally outrageous but something definitively eye catching..
If you must know, I have three closests and a dresser squished with clothes on top of clothes..As for friends...
They are range from Gap to Free Nation, Bathing Ape to Diesels to Designer (moi) Original... In fact....

I just buy whatever clothes I like. Don't really care about brands.
For jeans, I'm forever a Pacsun girl. They just fit so well. I'm concerned for when I'm in England. Maybe I'll buy like, 6 pairs before I go.
I'm a big fan of Forever 21 and Heritage SOMENUMBERHERE for the cheaper stuff I buy, like sundresses and cardigans.
New York & Company is great for stuff I can wear to work, but is still cute enough to wear outside of it. Love the cardigans and dresses.
Express is WONDERFUL. Wonderful wonderful. I bought the most amazing turtleneck sweater there, and it was pretty cheap too. Though that turtleneck ripped because it was of thin soft material.![]()
RIP TURTLE NECK.
H&M is a bit of haystack because once and a while you find an amazing find, but mostly it's just stuff that's scratchy and has weird measurements.
I like Hollister and Abercrombie & Fitch sweaters. Their camis are pretty, but they're not made for girls who've actually hit the point in puberty called hip development, so they look weird on me if they're worn with anything over it that shows a great deal of the cami as opposed to just layer.
I like stuff from Victoria's Secret. I only buy underwear and bras from Victoria's Secret now. There are no exceptions, because they all feel so nice on me. Underwear is one of those things that I just won't go cheap on.
Victoria's Secret Pink is also nice too. The sweatpants don't suit me as a style, but I like their jackets and t-shirts. They're selling cardigans now which made me cream myself.
Simply Vera Wang makes the nicest summer nightwear.
Incidently, The Gap doesn't have clothing I like very much, but they have the most amazing stuff for guys. I love the male models in The Gap and what they wear. Ohhhh, argyle sweaters! I loved making Hux go in there and being like "TRY THIS ON.![]()

For shoes, I'll go DSW. That is the only discount store that's not a total mess and makes me want to throw up. It's clean, and neat, and well lit and the sales are always good. I once bought a pair of Guess wedges that were originally 100 dollars - for 15 DOLLARS. I recently bought a pair of Steve Madden suede boots there for only like, 40 or 50 dollars, when they were originally over 100, I think, because my roommate had bought them when they just came out.
I've found that I've learned to definitely pay extra for quality because I've always had a really difficult figure to dress (curvy hips, small waist, huge eyetie butt, smaller upperbody, but boobs that can be too big for some things - and I'm only 5'0"). I've been raised extremely frugal and I've tried shopping that way, but then I look like a weird little sad case. Anything cheap I buy, I usually have to get tailored.
Bags are the one thing I tend to go really funky and thrifty on. I've had and worn Coach bags, Louis Vuitton bags and all of that, but I've also worn those neat Andy Warhol tote bags (I love the one with the soup cans still a bunch), this really cool long bag shoulder bag that goes down to my knees from Tibet.
I found a place that does the most amazing knock-off bags, that everyone around me thinks they're real. They're pricy, but I'd rather pay $80 dollars for a knock-off that had everyone fooled, than $20 dollars for an embarassing knock-off, or $1500 for the original bag.

Not too sure about brands but the only thing's i'll wear casually are nothing but black and the occasional dark red.
I look fantastic in anything so I'm not that bothered about branding. Infact in most instances I'm quite annoyed by some t-shirts, for example, that have nice designs that are ruined by a huge brand name across the chest and what not. That's not to say I wont wear branded clothes because I do just it doesn't really play that much of a factor in whether I purchase them or not.
One exception though; I have a boner for Adidas shoes.
