I don't think 80$ or more is too much for a dress, I've spent more, but where I live I can get something like that for half that price and that particular dress is not even well cut, so for me it's overpriced.

By the way, that comment was incredibly mean, I guess money is not a problem for you but not everyone is so lucky, it's very easy to dress nice when you can spend lots of money in clothes but try to be stylish when you have to live with only, say, 1000 € a month, to survive. That's the case of lots of people around the world and I think they are also entitled to join a fashion forum and try to dress trendy with the clothes they can afford, even if 80$ for a dress is too much for them. To me, they are the truly stylish people and not these girls who can buy as much as they want and pay a stylist to teach them how to dress.

I can't spend 80 bucks on a dress, and I know perfectly well what I'm doing on fashion forum...

Some of us are too young to work, and some struggle and can't afford to rake out that much on clothes either, while others simply have values that are greater than blowing hundreds of dollars on a two or three-piece shopping spree.

Believe it or not, there is a world outside of the fashion world.

I meant to quote the first person by the way.

Maybe not. but the forum here in the rules and whatnot says that it's a forum about fashion and that you're expected to contribute to it. Somehow Sears doesn't fall into that category for me. I live on a budget too and I don't spend thousands on one dress. I saved for months to get a Chanel purse. but 80 bucks for a dress is really not that pricey *IMO* It's okay to disagree, people!
