[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We’ve attended a few open houses and tours lately. This is our first experience with DC private schools. Many of the other moms are wearing conspicuous designer items. I’ve seen more Chanel flats, Gucci bags, Van Cleef bracelets/necklaces, Hermes belts, and Cartier love bracelets in the past few weeks than I’ve ever seen in my life. Is this typical for these types of parents, or are they just dressing like this for the open houses to signal wealth and status? [/quote] I would get used to this if you are going private. [b]Keep in mind a Cartier love bangle is literally attached to one’s wrist. You need a special screwdriver to take it off![/b] Also, “love bangle stacks” are very common and popular at local area privates. [/quote] I don't know why this feels kind of icky to me, but I also have mild claustrophobia[/quote] It’s not just you, I would absolutely freak out. [/quote]
