Great piece criticizing a Newsweek article on "fashion trends"
Jezebel rails against a Newsweek trend piece by Sameer Reddy that blames "casual wear" vs elegance and sartorial fashion for helping to create the credit crunch -- I kid you not:
"Comfort has its place, of course, but if that becomes the guiding value in getting dressed—or anything else—then we've got a problem. This misplaced priority has arguably contributed to our current troubles with credit, education and productivity."
Here's the response from Jezebel
What do you all think about this?
