Limited to local young people love the brand returns older social spending

Luxury return limit local and foreign stores inappropriate

La Perle is situated in the Central City East, Guangzhou, one of the most prosperous. Wednesday, 11 am, the entrance plaza parked some private cars, and out from time to time some foreigners. La Perle comes into the room on the first floor is the LV and Hermes of the shop, this time the store customers are not many. Next to the Friendship Store. This is the city's largest luxury shopping, but definitely not the best shopping. Compared with foreign luxury shopping areas, both style and price, Guangzhou and Shenzhen in Vientiane City La Perle are "not attractive enough."Teva Girls Shoes

Nearly every big city has a relatively high-end luxury shopping area, but the price and type of variable. Buy luxury goods abroad, not only new models, and the price is low.

"This does little expensive." Burberry store clerk told reporters in Guangzhou. "But in here to buy the goods can be returned within one month, although the only shop in Guangzhou and Shenzhen, but you shop in Hong Kong and overseas will not be great."

Despite the luxury of consuming more than the Anglo-American, but British and American people the consumption of luxury goods, so far from fanatical Asians. "Compared to Chinese, the British luxury goods Americans do not cold." Hussin said, "unless the home is a noble, or really rich. Anglo-Saxon countries are more willing to put more practical luxury above the large object, such as a house car. "Hu is a Pennsylvania State University students, valentino is her favorite.

According to Hussin own analysis, of which one share class is because Western countries is relatively clear, not a luxury to indicate a person's identity. In China, a luxury often a person's identity tag. Another aspect is that, in the Anglo-American cities, do not spend a lot of money can buy inexpensive items, so few local people will spend tens of thousands of dollars to buy a package.Teva Boys Shoes

Social consumption "side of the people use the brand, not inappropriate"

Tang has nearly 50 years old, her hands have a classic LV bag. But she does not favor luxury brands, she said frankly, the reason to spend money to buy their own bags, is to satisfy the "social" needs. "And everyone around me with the brand, not inappropriate." Deng said.

Different with young people, older luxury consumers, very few take the initiative to select brand. They pay more attention to the circle recognized brands, which can easily follow suit.

"My dad do not know enjoy to see other people what to buy to what to buy. Circle of people who buy Rolex, so he bought one, they do not like, do not look good, but others have, so is to buy." Hu Yan said. Hu's father was a businessman in Foshan, Guangdong's investment in the circle quite reputation.

"I see a magazine style, and I'm like to buy." Hussin said that young people buy luxury brands around most of impulse spending, but it does love these brands and styles.

Luxury consumption of young people is more emphasis on self-decoration, which are mostly consumer goods bags, skirts, perfume and so on. In contrast, older people are more spent on jewelry, watches and even cars on something more practical kind. "My parents never felt bags and perfumes can be a luxury, they think that only the precious metal is a luxury." Hussin said.

Started each brand products sights

More luxury is the name of the official "Haute." Advanced customization from the 19th century Paris, the intention is tailored according to customer requirements and product set. But this type of goods tend to charge higher fees, the difference according to the design and product materials may be difficult. "After the wedding and wedding rings may be customized." Hussin said.

There is no personal customization, you can determine the brand value as one of the criteria. But not more customized services, the brand better. Some clothes need to spend a few months time the tailor, and hence the price will be higher.

Different ages, different identification of high-level customization. Older people tend to Rolex, Valentino, Prada, LV, Fendi, Burberry as a brand these advanced customization, and tend to buy the brand's flagship product.

"The best selling shoes, the brand is doing this because we started." Salvatore Ferragamo store in Guangzhou, said attendant Dick, Ferragamo many commodities, is the best selling shoes. Including one called "Fun" in flat shoes, in the pre-holiday this year within a month after his mother sold 35 pairs.

"I really like shopping in thrift stores, places, vintage, TJ Maxx and Burlington Coat Factory," said Becker. "I find the stores that are not all going."

"If it is below $ 30, I like it, fine."

But a few months ago when she was shopping at Macy's in Fargo, Becker fell in love with a handbag Guess $ 110, but she could not imagine spending so much.

"It was the most amazing blue bag I have ever seen," said Becker. "I sat and stewed about whether I should spend that much for a bag, but when I went to" visit "again, he disappeared.

"Recently, I found exactly the same stock at Burlington Coat Factory almost a third of the price."

Since the parent is UND, Becker has done his share of moves. He always said, when he rented a new place, trying to cut her handbag collection.

"I feel that the move gives me a great opportunity to be a little more selective of those who want to maintain," said Becker, who specializes in primary education and double minor in English middle-level education.

And each new home presents challenges on how to keep his pile of handbags.

A year ago, Becker lived in an apartment where her room was a large walk-in. Instead of using it to hang and organize clothing, took her collection of handbags for over three quarters of the closet, each clinging to its own support.Louis Vuitton Bags

Becker wants to think about their collection in this way: "I like my money where I can see it - hanging in my closet."

He also used this room to present a collection of shoes and jewelry.

This year, Becker must be a little more creative, because she lives in a small two-bedroom apartment with a roommate.

"I used cement blocks to raise my bed and I bought Rubbermaid containers to slide underneath."

Becker said he could not find bags, jewelry, or even events that seem to interest her. So, one of his new hobby makes her jewelry.

Finally, he said that one day he would own his own shop.

Put paint on canvas is hardly a new idea when it comes to creating art.

Put paint on canvas is hardly a new idea when it comes to creating art.
But when heavy material is stretched over and around a rubber sole instead of a wooden frame, the result is a moving piece of design work which not only protects the feet, but shoes - committed to error, see - in addition to creative ability.

Fire Thunder Mountain High School students recently developed so many pairs of shoes for a national art competition sponsored by the shoe company Vans.

Over 400 schools received shoes from the competition, "said art teacher THMs in January Neimeyer. Among them, 50 - advanced to the ballot line, which is currently in progress - 10 from each of five regions. Thunder Mountain is the only school in Alaska to get to the regional final, where he is currently competing with schools in Oregon, South Dakota, Montana, Washington and Idaho.keen boys shoes sale

"I think this is actually conforms to the design because it is a real project," Neimeyer said. "It 's the internet, and already people are calling, or place that is so exciting for the students to see other people who appreciate the work. No real audience. It is not just a school. It goes beyond the walls of the school. It 's like an art gallery around the world now. "

Regional winners win an all expense paid trip to New York, where their drawings will be judged by celebrities and the national summit of all the shoes will win $ 50,000 for the art program at her school, and limited edition collection will be standing by Vans. The prize money would be particularly useful in Thunder Mountain, Niemeyer said that, given the cost of sending art supplies in Juneau. She said art students to TMHS must pay a fee to help defray these costs.

Neimeyer, together with the other art teacher Megan Webb, said the competition last year, when you search on Google for a student art competitions.

Teachers and students from four races for an entry in the last two days.

"I just had two days last year, so it was very difficult to talk about things (ideas) and," Culver said Lynzey, now a junior at TMHS. "I remember I skipped many classes because the other three children who were on our team last year were in the same class, and I was not only in this category. So I have to leave class and reach The room (art) work with them. "

Although a timetable for the design and divergent ran, the 2010 Thunder Mountain entrance access to the regional finals.

This year the team had more time to plan and prepare. The students received shoes vans and began the project in mid-March, and before the deadline of 15 April for the presentation. Students are divided into pairs depending on the type of shoes, like high-top or below the ankle slip of the tongue, is more suited to one of four types - action sports, art, music and street culture and fashion. For example, the elderly face Peyton Webb sports action with the height of the high-top shoe skateboardist placed in a high altitude, when the elderly Paris Courtney Donohoe and Johnson used a shoe lace shoelace "aglets may be replaced a miniature brushes. Culver has accepted the challenge of street art, and sophomore Lindsay Smith, Berg music in his challenge.keen shoes boys

Although each couple must be created around a specific theme, and all shoes need a unifying element to bring them together. Smith Berg uses small circular designs in his artworks, so that each pair picked up on this theme. Instructors use these circles offer water and hills, while Smith saved his band Berg frills.

Thunder Mountain students have expressed interest in continuing the project next year, so that Neimeyer said he expects to test out the 2012 schedule. Even students who do not seek to be the team to start to get involved. Culver said he had friends approach him and ask him to cheat on their kicks.

In addition, new ideas in business, Culver said that the competition has been improved as an artist.

"I can work in other (media)," said Culver, whose preferred method of creation are coal and paper. "I can use different objects to draw and create art. I am only doing so on a sheet of paper or canvas. I know I can pull the shoes, and I probably can count on wood blocks or objects in different ways."

"We wanted to know if people who had never worn shoes before showing the same kind of ground operation," said Davis.

"We felt there was a better indication of how we are obviously intended to be executed, because these people had never worn shoes. When we tested (riders) in Kenya, we found exactly the same kind of mechanical. They have no land on their heels, they land with a pattern of heel strike very sweet, "she said.keen shoes

After removing the shoe and remove the artificial shock absorbers, tendons and muscles of the foot, ankle, calf and thigh began to work, they were built, Davis said.
