[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So when Kate Middleton got engaged and showed the world her ring, she looked PERFECT - hair, outfit, teeth, smile, manicure etc. When Zara Phillips got engaged and showed the world her ring, it was extremely modest and her nails were tatty and she had a hole in her sleeve. This is the difference between strivers and the truly wealthy.

Also yes to being unflappable and stoic. [/quote]

Being impeccably groomed, especially all the time, is a mark of the middle class.  Having impeccable table manners is also a mark of the middle class.

Being emotional - middle class.

I agree with the above characterization.  Kate Middleton is middle class - in both attitude and life.  Zara has always been upper class.  On the other hand, Kate having to be impeccably dressed in public now - I wouldn't characterize her as middle class because of that.  She's a royal and there are expectations; being impeccably dressed in public is her job. It would be disrespectful for her to not be impeccably dressed.

Agree with other posters here too - not being loud - that's upper class.

Being low key.. Drinking a lot.. Being outdoorsy.. Liking dogs (in many instances liking them better than people).. Certain activities - sailing, squash, skiing.

European vacations being not a big deal (that said cruises are usually lower class, unless you charter a boat that fits ... say ..10 people)[/quote]
