I wonder if this is similar to my urge to buy gold metallic shoes to wear to my brother's wedding. I don't particularly *like* metallic shoes and never have, but my grandmother did and wore them a fair bit. I figure I'm chanelling her, for an event that would have been so important to her. (And for which she wouldn't have cared in the least whether my shoes were metallic, as long as they were reasonably nice.)
