# Now this is something
that I must expound upon.

Here in America, at least where I live, Burberry is considered high fashion. Despite my repeated attempts to tell friends and acquaintences alike that it is NOT to be worn. That only Townies and Chavs wear Burberry. No one pays me any mind about it, insisting that that is there (GB) and HERE it's cool to wear. Still, I cannot help but chuckle when I see a mom or teenager in Burberry.

Thanks to you all, I associate it with a rather lower standard of living.

# Tis true
The closest countries being Canada and Mexico and they're no help at all in the fashion department

Likewise, YSL being taken up by white trash in the States (apparently).

Fortunately there's very little burberry to be sighted in NZ, and then only as accents for fashionable types.

Our white trash are still into Adidas, Reebok & Nike..
