if you wear or stop wearing a piece of jewelry just because of who is or isn't also wearing it, you're just an idiot because you've wasted your money. if you buy jewelry for the right reasons (not just because you think it'll make you look cool), but because you like it, it'll never go out of style because it's your style.

..I should just mention, that if you put this much effort into deciding why you will wear some pieces of jewelry and not others..you need some serious help.
Who cares if the cafeteria lady wears them!? For all you know she saved her paycheck for the last 5 years to buy one. I honestly think that making that kind of a distinction is the epitome of "unclassy".
If something is cute, if it looks nice, if you like it....just wear it. I won't stop carrying my coach bag because knockoffs exist! If something is trendy or popular it's going to get immitated.
I'm pretty sure that "an indisputable sign that you're poser trying too hard" is writing (or putting stock) in an article like that one!
And that, is my two cents.

Small Southeastern College junior Intern #2, a member of XYZ sorority, agrees. "Seriously, nobody I know wears that stuff anymore. Everyone had (Tiffany silver jewelry) my senior year of high school, but that was a long time ago."
That to me is the funniest thing of all!

The bean isn't as obvious as the "Return to Tiffany" stuff. I wear my bean all the time, and no one has ever picked up on it as a Tiffany piece. It's the difference between trendy and classic.

Amen sista!
As an alumna, I also suggest to collegians to shop consignment. Guess how much cool stuff you can get there that isn't the same thing everyone else is wearing!
