I see no reason to flame you, FAB*SpiceySpice. You know what you want, and you obviously know how to get it. I think you better articulated what I said about having an opportunist streak in me. If I like something that's expensive and I have the money, I'll buy it. If I like something that isn't expensive, and I have the money, I'll buy it. I set my limits by Mr. Visa and the skills I know that I have. I can still remember my parents taking me to Europe for the first time, and getting me "suitable" clothes first. My dad wanted to contact a certain designer to have them sponsor my trip - AND sent them several photos of me in her spring line of that year! Funny, I just came across the photos this weekend.

As has been stated, the key is to treat people by themselves and not by whether or not they own a particular designer's spring line, which a few people just can't seem to understand.
