Since we are in the world of materialism and fashionism, it's obviously that some people buy brands products to look rich or to be accepted from others and also those who buy fakes have the same idea. Honestly I don't care, I'm not letting that decide whether or not buy them.
There will always be 2 groups of people, those who buy brands because of the name to showcase their wealth and represent the status symbol they are and those who buy brands because they really like the products. I put myself in the second group, I do not buy brands to be accepted from others or look rich because I don't even think like that.
Nowadays, fakes brand products are indeed getting better but I completely believe that their quality can never be compared to authentic products. We still be able to spot their minor mistakes, if we inspect it closely and it's going to be inferior.
Lately, I'm very into Chanel. I like this brand because of the design, quality of products and I also admire the legacy of the brand. All brandname designers have put a lot of effort on their works to made their own signature style. I'd like to support them to keep getting better on their works.
Thank you for letting me sharing my opinion
