You Can Work It, But Can You Afford It?

The NY Times recently had an article about how the fashion label Parish was turning to troubled high schools to produce their fashion shows. Their reasoning is that it teaches students responsibility and teamwork. I sort of read it, flashed-back to my high school, and moved on.

Then today the Fashionista commented on the article. Which made me think a bit more. The whole thing sort of reminded me of interning for that fashion house in Italy. You totally bust your booty promoting something that you could never afford. It just leaves you wanting what you can't have. True, I did end up buying one of their super pricey, but super hot, dresses. But come on, am I really a good model of restraint?
