I agree Soj. The tackiness starts right from them being on the show. The real socialites have always been poised and discreet.

I knew an administrator there and we had lunch in the lunchroom. There were a handful of teen girls at a table all with designer book bags. I asked my friend what was up with that. She said that if you're parents were the CEO's of IMB, a 1000 dollar book bag wouldn't be a big deal.
