At least you don't give a **** what other people think, and that is all what matters.
that's exaggerating though. everyone cares what other people think, some to a greater degree than others. if you genuinely didn't care, you'd probably walk around public in boxers and a wifebeater half the time. you also wouldn't shower before going out (you'd just do it whenever's convenient).
i generally make an effort to dress well. when i go out, i try harder in this department than when i sit at home and play online poker. this is because i give a **** what other people think.
i often wear designer clothes. some of them have visible labels, some of them don't. sometimes i make a conscious decision to wear clothes with or without visible labels. this is because people notice these things, and it makes a difference in our interactions. maybe i'm shallow, but for some reason it really doesn't bother me when a hot girl notices my dsquared sunglasses and chats me up because of it.
while i could claim to attempt to dress well "for myself" just like anyone else, any feeling of satisfaction/confidence/etc derived from it is a direct result of the way other people see me. pretending that isn't the case would be silly.
