Nailing the High Low

When I am look-for-lessing it there are some things I look for. First, material--I want cotton, silk or linen in tops--not rayon or some kind of flammable knit (although I do own plenty of these too!). Second, I am looking for where something is made. For example, shoes in Italy. Finally, I add one element that is a "high" item like a bag or jewelry. Look for less done and done!
