Answer:

Conspicuous consumption

Explanation:

Conspicuous consumption is a term used to describe expenditures on goods and services purchased primarily for the purpose of showing wealth. In the mind of the conspicuous consumer, such display serves as a means of having or maintaining social status before a social group, which socially determines objects and goods, such as a classification of higher or lower status. An example of this can be seen in the question above, where the girl bought a very expensive purse just to show that she possessed something luxurious and give an impression of wealth.
