So, I've seen it a lot, or too much may I say (thanks to MK Olsen....). Dressing like you don't spend a lot on your clothes when you did spend some money and some time to plan out your outfit.
What do you think of that trend? Do you think it's ridiculous to spend that much money to look as though your clothes come from a goodwill store? Or do you like it that way?

. I personally find it borderline offensive sometimes, to think that these sons and daughters of the 60's liberals cum upper middle class can drop $200 on a "vintage" suit jacket (which you can find for $5 in other areas where poor people buy them because that's all they can afford). It's a pose, it creates cognitive dissonance, it makes them look fake, lost, and stupid. It's along the same lines as Weather Underground in the 60's who liked to play revolution, although obviously not nearly as serious...
, but I've examined most of her collections quite closely, they all have a sense of luxury that are far and away from Jacobswear...

I mean, those outfits aren't really "cheap", but they couldn't qualify as "chic" either.
...good one..!!!
