rustic hotels

They look cool, but I'm reminded of the book That was Then, This is Now:
Besides, it was hard to tell a Soc from a greaser. Now the greasers wore their hair down on their foreheads instead of combed back-this went for Mark and Me too-and the Socs were trying to look poor. They wore old jeans and shirts with the shirt tails out, just like greasers always had cause they couldn’t afford anything else. I’ll tell you one thing though: what with fringed leather vests and Levi’s with classy store labels in them, those kids were spending as much money to look poor as they used to to look rich. It was crazy.
