That is true... here in West Coast, we're much too casual sometimes. In Hong Kong and Japan, you'd never find anyone wearing Lululemon other then for the gym. Everyone dress really nice there even just to go out for a movie. Yes, they do wear jeans, but their fashion is much more forward thinking then ours.

Personally, I like to dress up once awhile too. But I can't be bother following the trends. A nice classic black dress is a must and then add a piece or two for the season (ie. shoe or acessories). That's all I would spend my money on. Geez... I would rather buy more Sugoi.
