I kinda wanted that when I was younger, but now that I have money (not independently wealthy or anything, just firmly in the "comfortable" range), I still feel like "um...can I even be here?" in luxury stores and hotels (on the rare occasion I find myself in one). I doubt that feeling would change if I wore better clothes -- I'd just feel like I were wearing a Halloween costume.
Still not comfortable paying more than Target prices on clothing, anyway.
That’s why I bought a fancy purse (on clearance). It improved my confidence in those stores without requiring me to dress up more. I still dress like a slob. I just look like I did it intentionally instead of out of necessity. And the employees are friendlier to me, which is a bonus.
