Fitting in in Grosse Pointe
I'm a working class girl, and don't have a lot of designer clothes. What are some ways to appear wealthy and fit in in the Grosse Pointe area?

Go to salvation army and buy their used clothing?
Wear a maids' outfit? Dress in sailing clothing (only works in the summer)? Park your car in Detroit and hitchhike into Grosse Pointe so you can be seen getting out of a Mercedes? (this is sarcastic- do not actually try it, it would be really dangerous and stupid). top answer: Find people who do not care what you wear or drive and judge you for who you are and ignore the rest. There are such people in "the pointes", I have met some of them and I know that they have friends. |

You could make your own clothes and start a trend with your own label.

Are you serious? Really really serious?
Awwww, sweetie stop this way of thinking....as a fitness model, competitor and fitness coach, I see all sorts - some who are trying to get into shape to attract men. As a girl who grew up poor and worked her fanny off in school and grad school, I know the desire of wanting more...my now husband is from a better background with more education. Did I try to hide who I was? No...he valued me for having so little, raising above it and doing more. And now, we are doing well, have honesty and respect and I never had to "sell" myself short to get that...I EARNED it. Give your head a shake, work hard for YOURSELF and once you accept yourself for what you are - and more importantly - what you can be, the rest will fall into place. And if you don't meet the rich guy? Honey, it won't matter, YOU will earn YOUR OWN income. |

ModelChick wants what a lot of girls want, money and looks, love optional.
I'd rather have love, though. Money's worthless if you get treated poorly. |

Just do not wear any clothes. that way no one will know that you do not have designer clothing and a lot of men will look at you.
