I used to think I was quite posh because I had never eaten in a Giant vibrator.
Now I am universally looked down on by all my friends because of this.
Wonder which room will be the most fashionable next?

Thankfully, one can't eat in my Giant vibrator, it's a galley job, and my lone Burberry item is undetectable as such unless one reads the inner tag, or makes a very good guess

I can see it now. A Louis Vuitton handbag on every arm, a Burberry scarf on every neck. I've been in their NYC store and it seemed grossly overpriced, insultingly so. Therefore, I think what they should be worried about is not the 'chavs' but the inevitable knock offs that will undercut their market if their branding strategy does become successful.
