I have a question too for anyone who is down south right now, regarding handbags. Up here Dooney & Bourke and Coach bags are HUGE - is this the case down there as well? If not, what is popular? I have heard rumors of PNMs being judged on what designer handbag they carry - is this the case?

OK, first, I wouldn't say that Dooney & Bourke is big up here...I hardly see any young women carrying D&B. Coach is huge, yes, as is Louis V. and Kate Spade. But D&B isn't bad, either, as it is in the same class as Coach and Kate Spade. My favorites are Marc Jacobs and Tod's, though I have a handful of Coach purses, too.

I would think when they say "designer" they mean more along the lines of Prada or Kate Spade, or Bottega Veneta.

I'm nit-picking now, but Kate Spade isn't in the same category as Prada and Bottega Veneta. I REALLY don't see the attraction to her grossly overpriced canvas bags. It's canvas, and usually pretty plain designs/patterns at that.
As for Lily dresses, I think they're adorable, but I haven't seen any stores in Washington that sell them. You may have to buy online.
