How true! I have always been puzzled by the willingness people have to become walking advertisements for the products they wear! I suppose that there is a certain vanity in it! Look what good taste I have! Look what I can afford! A shallow conceit, as your poem so rightly suggests.

Hi Nassus...

~ You couldn't have said it any better... And, lets face it, gravity isn't our friend as we get older, so now matter how much one spends on designer fashions - the flaws still show...!! LOL...

~ Enjoyed this a lot...!

You said it right my friend, designer fashion is shallow and can never hide flaws. God bless.

You have delivered a worthwhile and important message in this wonderfully simple poem. Well done. You are completely right in that character cannot be bought (and certainly not with money!)
