After seeing that Sarah Palin Turkey video several times, something dawned on me
The Governor hasn't lost her newly acquired taste for expensive clothes


She's wearing a $300 Burberry scarf

For a little perspective on the company "Burberry's, in some ways they are a competitor of Harrod's and the equivalent of a U.S. store like Bloomingdales without the housewares or Saks Fifth Avenue.

In other words, not cheap.

I find it amusing that there is a certain fad that has existed with a segment of city dwelling British youth; They're known as "Chavs" or "Charva", and one thing they are famous for is the style of dress,

example;


Expensive, name brand Track suits, name brand sneakers and ball caps.
Since they seem to like the idea of wearing something everyone knows is expensive, they have latched onto the Burberry's trademarked plaid;


Their hats are popular;


Here's a video that pokes fun at the Burberry/Chav connection;

Republican party, Please PLEASE put up Sarah Palin for the ticket in 2012. She really doesn't have a clue what she's doing.

1. Probably something she didn't turn over to the GOP.

Don't know, saw the same pattern at Target the other day
somehow I doubt they sell the same brand at Target

Me, need to get some scarfs with NO pattern on them for the winter... long story

Will be happy with ONE
