To Wear or Not to Wear

Almost all the magazines recommended for teens have at least one article on what kind of clothing you should and should not wear. But they never really ask the opinion of the people who are actually going to be wearing the clothes. So I'm going to compare different things about Hollister and Aeropostale, like prices and clothing quality, but I'm going to try not to make it like a boring news letter. The first thing that isn't the best about Aeropostales clothing is that just about every shirt or sweat shirt you can find there either says, Aero, or Aeropostale 1987. So at least you can never forget where you bought your shirt! Hollisters shirts don't have Hollister written all over them, but they usually have something about California. Most of the time their shirts are the same style with a different pattern on them or they are the same pattern just on different styles of shirts. The jeans at Hollister and Aeropostale are just regular everyday jeans but some have holes some don't, it just depends on the style.
I personally am not a big fan of Hollister. I've never ever bought anything from Hollister and I think their perfume stinks! (Abercrombie and Fitch smells worse though). Aeropostale has a "signature" perfume but they don't spray it throughout the store. Not to say that walking around smelling like a clothes store is bad or anthing, it's your choice, but i wouldn't.

Now I'm going to switch gears and talk about prices. At Aeropostale if you want a T-shirt then the usual price is going to be $15.50, their tank tops are $7.99, and their sweaters can get up to $44.00 . Hollisters shirts are around $24.00. Their sweaters can get up to $60.00! Right now most of the stores are going through sales so the prices are generally good, but money doesn't grow on trees so good luck getting a $60.00 sweater.
