I wouldn't buy, or not buy, a brand simply because Lindsay or Britney carried it, or didn't carry it.<br><br>On the other hand, there *are* brands which exist for no other reason than to prove one has money. Those brands are to be avoided.<br><br>And finally, there are certain *brand items* they wear which I won't get because it's just silly to wear them or have them in an environment which doesn't support them.  UGG boots in warm downtown Los Angeles being a very good example of this type of nonsense.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[K]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 19th 2007 7:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lindsay and Low Class Luxury?]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</guid><description><![CDATA[Burberry had this problem in the UK whith their previous (now discontinued baseball cap) being adopted by the group known as "chavs"  <br><br><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav" rel="nofollow">http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chav</a><br><br>It seems that the company is now distancing itself from that image (especially after discontinuing the baseball cap in particular). So I don't think it will be problem<br>with Balenciaga, unless you find the social image the brand is attempting to maintain being abused by the social class of customers. Being in the news for turning up to rehab is a distinctive of the<br>media class, and if the media class are the focus/intended customer base of the brand...this can only help them.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Joshua Ballard]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 19th 2007 8:36PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lindsay and Low Class Luxury?]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</guid><description><![CDATA[I don't think Lindsay Lohan is considered low-class just yet.  She's still a Hollywood partygirl and people are still enthralled by that.  Plus, Balenciaga bags are (generally) more expensive than Burberry bags.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Carrying Contraption]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2007 12:56AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lindsay and Low Class Luxury?]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</guid><description><![CDATA[I tend not to buy brands that "gift" celebs too much.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[SC]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 20th 2007 1:51AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Lindsay and Low Class Luxury?]]></title><link>http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.luxist.com/2007/01/19/lindsay-and-low-class-luxury/</guid><description><![CDATA[who cares? she's hot.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ruslan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jan 25th 2007 3:55AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
