Well, if I had a $5,000 blazer, I, too, would probably be pretty upset if I got mud on it. Unless it's vicuna or some similarly pricey fabric, $5K for a blazer sounds rather preposterous!

Yeah, it was a fun article. Penny Loafers always seem to be singled out; it's a very picked on shoo...lots of women hate them.

Not to be uncharitable, but there is something a tad complex-laden about actually calling yourself 'The Blue Collar Bar'.
if I went to the 'Millionaires' Bar' I wouldn't expect to see too many millionaires either really.
