Hi!

I am absolutely in love with the green dress Leighton Meester wore to the 2008 Teen Choice Awards -

It was beautiful, green and drapey.

Does anyone know the designer?

Please help!

Thanks!

Posh Spice owns 100 Hermès handbags. We realize this is common knowledge but we still bat it around the office regularly with general disbelief.

Blair Waldorf probably has 100 headbands, and Aerin Lauder has a closet full of black pants, but is there a singular signature item that you would buy in bulk at Costco (like Tom Ford Sunglasses)?

My best friend's mom has 21 pairs of leopard print shoes. But this has more to do with the fact that she loves leopard print and shoes, and has the means to buy a surplus of both. We know another woman that collects David Yurman Jewelry, and owns nearly every piece he's ever made. But my personal favorite is a woman I know that buys three of everything to honor her three daughters. Seriously, three Hermès porcelain bracelets (is this an Hermès thing?), three identical Chanel handbags, three brightly colored Tod's loafers, whatever.

On the other hand, I've heard people talk about how freeing it is to have a uniform. Living like perpetual school girls, some women buy multiples to make their morning routine less stressful, and sleep a little longer without thinking about the excruciating sartorial decision waiting within their closet. I know from experience that this is really helpful, when you only have a couple shirts and a few pairs of jeans and cords, as I do, getting dressed is a five minute proposition.

So I guess what we're wondering here is whether collecting clothes is a byproduct of considerable means, or a call for simplicity, and perhaps more importantly, does anyone else actually do this? Or is this a myth perpetuated by Anna Wintour and her Prada dress fixation?
