I’m from Daytona and I grew up quite posh. Thank you very much!

Posh in Daytona means you get hash browns at Waffle House smothered AND chopped

And don’t you forget it.

There's always some man who refuses to take his hat off indoors, and that ruins the poshness. And there's always some woman who wears inappropriate clothes, and that ruins the poshness.

People in Italy seemed to dress up more on a daily basis. Bermuda to me is posh for the reason. People, men, wear jackets with Bermuda shorts. To me, there are posh restaurants and hotels within locations almost anywhere. Posh is artwork, clean, service with a smile. I feel posh when there's a doorman. LoL. I feel posh when there are cloth napkins.

Some places are just nice places and become posh because people who could afford to go anywhere think they are worth a visit and for whatever reason they resist over building.

Then there is a certain amount of fun in people watching in posh places, or spending a few hours in that world.

Posh-place visitors, what do you like about visiting the posh places? Is it that the posh amenities make it easier to enjoy the unique features of a particular location? Is it the relative solitude?

And now you're here in the US posting on DCUM? FWIW.

So many places in Greece this year (Hydra, Paros, sifinos)….no one who is anyone goes to Mykonos or Santorini anymore.

Those places are not off the beaten path…

What is posh? To some, Atlantis might be posh… to others St Moritz is pedestrian. We need a common definition to even begin to help. And, why is “posh” a gating criterion - don’t you want to go somewhere you’ll enjoy regardless of how “posh” it is?
