Customer Review: Screw Oakley
No complaints with these guys. Good ventilation. Aspheric lens shape. Light and comfortable. Anti-slip nose and earpieces. They cost 80% less than a pair of Oakleys. No contest. These shades ROCK!

I suggested to Aisha, a recent client, that she invest in a durable leather handbag. Aisha argued that she simply couldn't afford to spend upwards of $300. The remarkable thing about this was that once we analyzed her recent clothing purchases we realized that she was spending about $300 monthly on clothing! Aisha was actually suffering from sticker shock and had kind of become accustomed to buying quantity instead of quality. The end result was that her closet was essentially bursting at the seams with discount and poorly constructed clothing. In the end, Aisha was in effect spending $3,600 annually (nearly 10% of her $37,000 salary) on a wardrobe that lacked both function and style.

Establishing a budget is a very difficult question to answer from a general perspective because everyone's financial and clothing situation is different. If you have a job that allows you to work in a casual environment where some of your everyday clothing can be incorporated into you daily work outfits, I would estimate the overall clothing allowance to be somewhere around 7%. For those that work in a more professional office environment where you are expected to dress the part and dressing the part may overall affect your promotion-ability factor; I would estimate around 10% of your salary. Keep in mind, this budget should include the costs of alterations and professional cleaning services. It is also important to note that if you are maintaining a household on this salary, i.e. you have children or a spouse you must allocate a portion of this amount to their clothing allowance as well.

Example 1: Aisha works in a business casual environment. Her salary is $37,000. Her clothing allowance is: $2,590. - Example 2: Elaine works in a professional business environment. Her salary is $85,000. Her clothing allowance is: $8,500.

1. Invest in Investment Pieces: Investment pieces are just that - "investment" pieces! So, don't be afraid to spend a little more money on the classics which are required to create a functional wardrobe. Discount stores such as Marshalls, Century 21, and DSW could produce some very valuable finds, however it is important that you don't become distracted and divert from the standard classics when shopping at these stores. For classics, I recommend shopping at a formula store. A formula store is typically a specialty retail store that stocks key basics. Some great formula stores are Gap, Ann Taylor LOFT and The Limited. The great thing about a formula store is that once you find the sizes and styles that suit you best, you can shop there season to season with little difficulty. These are great stores for purchasing a classic a-line skirt, trousers, jeans, button-ups, and tees, tanks and camis of variety.

2. Don't Be a Label Whore: When it comes to beautiful dresses, handbags, shoes and scarves there are some designers that are simply ahead of the par, however to simply focus all of your efforts into collecting clothing that has a designer label tag regardless of how flattering or well-fitting the item is - is simply not a good option.

3. Do Apply The Cost-Per-Wear Concept: To get back to the example I gave previously of Aisha spending $300 on a leather handbag. The leather handbag is an investment piece which can be carried for months or possibly years to come. If Aisha carried this handbag for just six months her cost per wear would be $50. I discuss the Cost per Wear Concept in more detail in a recent post.

4. Don't Charge: I know to some people this may seem unthinkable; however I think whenever you shop with credit cards you are always tempted to get caught up in the emotional buzz of said item and go well over your budget. If you're carrying a lot of debt (particularly from past shopping activities) you really need to think long and hard about plunking 7-10% of your income towards clothing. A simple rule of thumb I often use is "Don't buy it unless you can afford to buy two." No, I'm not saying that you should buy two of everything; rather what I am suggesting is that every time you buy something, you take that same dollar amount and apply it towards paying off debt or towards savings. So in effect, that $300 handbag will now cost you $600; $300 to purchase and another $300 in savings or debt payment. The amount of your clothing budget should match or exceed the amount you are saving or applying towards debt repayment.

5. Make It Automatic: Now that you have established your clothing budget, the only sure fire way to stick to it is to make it automatic. Here are two great ideas for actually staying on budget. Low Tech Option: If your budget allows for $200 to be spent a month on clothing. Place this amount of cash in an envelope. When shopping for clothing only spend what is in the envelope. Once this amount is gone you have exhausted your clothing budget for the month. High Tech Option: Set up a separate checking account (I suggest an ING Orange account) and have a specific amount deposited into your account periodically; for example $50 a week. When shopping for clothing only use the debit card associated with this checking account. The nice thing about this option is that if you are not someone who shops on a weekly or monthly basis the money continues to grow towards your much anticipated shopping spree.

6. Maximize Your Budget: A pair of Jimmy Choo shoes is no longer $500. It's $500 minus the $165 you will get for selling them on EBay the following year. EBay and consignment stores are a great source for stretching your clothing allowance. If you don't have a lot of designer clothing in your closet you can still receive some financial benefit from making a tax-deductible donation to your local goodwill or charity.

Have a Fashionable Day!

Most countries have strict rules against making or selling counterfeit goods. Other countries could care less. The funny thing is; most countries make counterfeit goods illegal to sell, but it's okay to have it in your possession in small quantity. I don't think I will ever understand federal laws, I just obey them.

General rule of thumb, if your country has federal laws, chances are it is VERY ILLEGAL to make or sell counterfeit/fake goods of any kind. If you're country does not have a federal laws, chances are your country could care less if you make or sell counterfeit or fake goods.

But there are ways around it also. If it is a look-a-like without the company logo or name is is not considered a fake or counterfeit. You can sell this legally as long as you don't promote it as the brand name in question. But, if the item has either the company brand logo or name on it anywhere it is considered a fake/counterfeit and it is VERY ILLEGAL to buy or sell. "If it has the brand name or logo on it, it doesn't even have to resemble the product to be illegal to sell".

Counterfeiting a brand name is a major federal crime. Trademark and copyright infringement are a huge problem in the USA right now and can come with jail time and/or big fines. There are over one hundred thousand counterfeiting rings that were busted last year.

Some people say you are okay if you don't advertise the brand name. This is only okay if your product doesn't have a company name or logo on it anywhere. Look-a-likes with out a company name or logo are tolerated if they are not advertised as the brand name product.

Look-a-like items are items that look like a brand name item without any company name or logo on it. You may have noticed some people who sell look-a-like items and they advertise it as "Compare to Oakley" or "Just like Oakley". Even though it looks the same, it's not illegal to sell because it doesn't have a logo or brand name on it and they are not promoting it as a brand name product. Federal laws have really weird rules. I don't see the difference, but apparently they do.

I always hear stories of people getting in trouble for buying fake goods from China. This is very popular. Don't fall for cheap prices in China. Most wholesalers from China make counterfeit and fake merchandise. They make a living off of it. The problem is, it's against the law to most of the world. But China is not a democracy, they do not have any federal laws or regulations. Therefore, they don't need to follow rules set by other countries that have to follow the federal laws. That's why China can sell counterfeit or fake goods and not get in trouble.

Most people that have been getting in trouble, have been getting caught on receipt of the goods. China or another counterfeiter will ship the goods to it's customer. When the customer receives the goods, a team of officials arrest the customer. Most of the people caught for selling counterfeit goods have been doing it a long time. There has probably been a sting operation going on for quite sometime if you are caught selling counterfeit goods.

Big name brand companies that have been the victim of counterfeiting have created sting teams to constantly do research and catch counterfeiters. When you sell the goods, the sting team will purchase it. Then they inspect the item to find out if it is a fake. If the team can confirm the item is fake and you are selling fake goods under their brand name, you will be investigated. The investigation will go on until they can catch all the people involved so they can catch the entire counterfeiting ring.

Just because you have seen people selling counterfeit or fake goods and they didn't get in trouble, doesn't mean it's okay for you to sell it. Don't worry, someday those counterfeiters will be caught. Big countries like China thrive on counterfeit goods. The truth is, people don't mind buying-to-own counterfeit goods. Even if they know it's fake, most people don't mind. Some of it is made better than the real stuff. So they get a better product for a fraction of the price. But it doesn't make it right. It is still against the law for most of us. And for those that are selling counterfeit goods and shouldn't be; they will be caught someday.

If you are selling counterfeit or fake goods for a long time, you will probably be investigated soon if you aren't being investigated right now. My advice to you is to stop right away and don't contact the counterfeiters again. The sting teams can't bust countries like China because of the laws. But instead, they bust the recipients of the goods coming from China and other known counterfeiting locations. If you are buying counterfeit goods from someone, you are considered being part of a counterfeiting ring.

It's not a very good idea to sell counterfeit goods. I know, it doesn't seem like you are hurting anyone by selling counterfeit goods. I don't see the big deal either. But big brand name companies have really put some weight on law enforcement to stop counterfeiting. Law enforcement takes counterfeiting as serious as robbing a bank. You get a big fat federal charge to sit on your record for the rest of your life.

Play it safe people. If you think the deal is to good to be true, or if the price is way to cheap something is wrong. Counterfeit and fake items are very easy to spot as they sell for a fraction of the price the real thing would sell for. Don't make the same mistake thousands of people just like you have already made. Don't sell fake or counterfeit goods thinking you are not breaking the law. Because you are!
