<b>Mrs. Who:</b> Thanks for the budget tip - I've personally sworn off any item of clothing that reminds me of my corporate days, but I do like the look on other people. Esp. with jeans, like you suggested.

The funny thing is that when I write about fashion for work I get these nasty emails calling me out of touch and thickheaded - I don't think <i>Vogue</i> should turn into an Old Navy catalog (what they do is working after all) I just think that $500 sunglasses are not "budget" sunglasses. They're "investment pieces" or just "sunglasses" for some, but they're not a "bargain" for anyone.
