    Is it pretend being rich, or do yall just wear costco brand everywhere, it’s not bad, just tacky, places have dress codes, is the party indoors? Do you guys never dress up? Whats the context? You could be showing up looking like homer simpson to a formal black tie event.

      Costco has some excellent clothes that I’d be proud to wear anywhere, including some presentable casual (such as khakis and polos). Usually these are regular brands and it’s the more basic stuff that’s store brand. Alas, no tall sizes so I can’t.

      The problem is choosing the extra casual clothes, from Costco or otherwise

        Isn’t Kirkland based in Belarus? So you’re helping an economy that’s aiding Russia against Ukraine if you buy Kirkland.

      The context is a fancy event at this guy’s weekend home in Alpine, NJ for February 1 which apparently is a big deal for him (some holiday for the religious group he’s part of). Obscenely rich people.

        I would just not go in that case, its not exactly a family event or something that matters? only reason would be to do/see rich ppl shit where you’re expected to act a certain way and you din’t like that
