About This Quote
This quote from Tom Wolfe may seem a little strange at first, but it is actually a very clever way of saying that you often get what you pay for. Most people think that if they buy cheap jewelry, they'll get a cheap product. However, if you're going to get cheap jewelry, then at least do it right. Don't buy the kind of cheap jewelry that's made from cheap materials that won't last long and will just look tacky all the time. Instead, get a good quality piece that will last for years and give you great style with minimal effort.
