Yeah i know this is like really random, but i was just wondering, how do you guys feel about the store Abercrombie and Fitch. I was reading about it online and so many people seem to hate it!!!

i don't really shop there that often but i was thinking of getting some clothes there for christmas and i was just wanted to know some of yall opinionss on it

Here's the lowdown. I find their styles amazingly cute. Different things to layer and dress you up or down. Cute PJ's. But overpriced. Way overpriced. I think you can get equally nice stuff at American Eagle Outfitters for a lot cheaper.

Same quality of clothing, and same type of clothing, only cheaper. American Eagle is no crappy store, trust me. Some of their stuff is pricier when it first comes out but you can get good sales there, and there clothes is worth it.

Sometimes A & F have these paperthin shirts for 50 or 60 bucks...when meanwhile it's see-through and you STILL need to buy another shirt to go under it. It's ridiculous really. Then again, they do have some nice hoodies & ripped jeans. Keep in mind American eagle has that stuff too though & their name is still respectable.

Since it is christmas, I think this of all times would be the best to ask for since you're not paying yourself. Although, if you want to be easy on the people buying gifts for you, you might want to mention American Eagle or ask for one or two specific things at Abercrombie & Fitch, or maybe ask for a gift certificate.

There is a kids version of A & F...just abercrombie. They're a little bit cheaper and their sizes run bigger so you most likely would be able to fit into those clothes too if you want an alternative.

Hope that I've made sense :)
