Part 2 of something very true. An employee and I were in Chicago on Michigan ave. yesterday. We wrapped up a job and I wanted to get some nice boots. Being from Milwaukee, Chicago is the closest (literally) thing I have to check out what people are wearing and buy decent clothes. However, even a big city like Chicago is in the dark ages fashion wise (I ended up buying boots on line). Here in the midwest it's appaling in general. We have our pocket areas where people dress more nicely and gets better as one gets to either coast. Fly abroad and then really see people with style. Again, I'll use Paris as a reference. The people there just plain look good. The only people walking down the streets wearing cut offs, white tennis shoes/high socks, t-shirts, and ball caps are likely from the US.
