As a teenager, I used to dress up like a hippie. My clothes weren't posh.
Abhay Deol
At school, when everyone would sell sweets and chocolate, I'd always take it that step further. I'd hustle as hard as I could to get the new Air Forces, to go and chill with the posh kids and the white girls who were around my area.
AJ Tracey
I understand that people want to see just the posh side of fashion, but fashion is a lot of work.
Alessandro Michele
I can't wait until I'm able to afford really posh bags.
Alexandra Roach
I don't like posh hotels. I like small, eclectic hotels, and luxury for me would mean really good company with good food in a really funky, beautiful house in the middle of a field where someone came and serviced the place for us.
Amanda Donohoe
Cricket was deemed too posh where I came from, and I'd never have risked walking home through the estates in my whites. My club played some of the posh schools. I'd have the cheapest kit, but I loved those games. As soon as the posh lads opened their mouths and you heard their accents, the stakes were raised.
Andrew Flintoff
I had several publishers, and they were all the same. They all wanted salacious. And everybody is writing autobiographies, and that's one reason why I'm not going to do it. If young Posh Spice can write her autobiography, then I don't want to write one!
Anita Pallenberg
People in L.A. think I'm so posh. They think I live in 'Downton Abbey.'
Annabelle Wallis
I had to go to Asda, it's the best supermarket if you're poor as they have a good basic range, Sainsbury's is for rich, posh people.
Anne Hegerty
When I first left drama school, I was too posh for the working-class parts and not posh enough for the upper-class roles. You know what England is like: the gradations of accent and how you're judged by them are still there. I discovered that to get a break you have to lie about where you're from.
Ben Chaplin
We so love to stereotype people in this country - I can relate to that myself as I've experienced it. By taking on challenges over the years, I've tried to show people I'm not just some 'posh boy' and that there's far more to me.
Ben Fogle
I think poshness is very funny! But I think it's also delightful. There's something wonderful and very innocent about it, particularly with the Edwardians.
Ben Miller
Being a posh actor in England you cannot escape the class-typing from whatever side you look at it.
Benedict Cumberbatch
I don't think old posh is as intimidating as new posh, is it?
Bob Mortimer
Of course, I loved the Spice Girls. I loved Geri and Baby, but who liked Posh Spice? They said I looked like her, and I said: 'That's not cool, that's really mean.'
Cara Delevingne
I've had to spend an awful lot of my life trying to pretend I'm not posh. Although once I open my mouth, I rather let things out the bag.
Celia Imrie
I often buy myself presents. Sometimes I will spend $100,000 in one day in a posh boutique.
Celine Dion
Most of my youth I spent being obsessed with Baby Spice, so she was my favorite for a really long time. Now that I'm older, I actually really like Posh Spice the best. Nineties Victoria Beckham is perfection, I think.
Charli XCX
I don't think I met anyone posh until I went to London.
Chris Ofili
A lot of people went to posh universities, but I left at 17 to work for three years at Frank Newton's Gentleman's Outfitters in Shrewsbury, where I gained a professional qualification in how to measure a suit.
Christopher Timothy
When I was put up in posh hotels, I thought it was wonderful.
Philip's story is the most interesting in the royal family - his background is the opposite of what you'd think. Everyone has this idea that Philip is this bumbling, deliberately posh sort of man who says the wrong thing.
Once I got to college, it seemed that the Hamptons were a little bit too posh for me and didn't represent the kind of values I was embracing in my late teens. So, I didn't go out there, except to visit my parents, for a long time. And then, after 9/11, I discovered it was a nice, mellow place to hang out.
I think you can't be really posh and be an interesting actor. I'm a bit of a posh rough.
Most people live in the city and go to the country at the weekend, and that's posh and aristocratic, but actually to live in the country and come to London when you can't take it any more is different.
I don't think you can get any more working class than me. Everyone seems posh to me.
I went to a very posh school, I had a very privileged upbringing with parents who were incredibly loving and brilliant. I've never tried to hide that; I'm not going to change my accent or talk in a different way.
When posh boys are in trouble they sack their servants.
I got into this thing called the National Youth Theatre, and to me, that was all about the status quo. It seemed to me like 'Downton Abbey' - all the working-class and black people were playing servants, or the gravedigger in 'Hamlet,' and the boys from Eton and posh private schools got Hamlet, all the big roles.
I went to America to get away from constantly being cast in costume dramas, playing posh people.
A musical, in its true form, is where emotions reach a height where true spoken word cannot be enough, and you must sing. That's all it is. It's not posh; it's not out of your reach. It's the most visceral way to tell a story.
I've never been aware of the difference between so-called posh actors and working-class actors.
People assume I'm posh because I'm one of the acting dames. I grew up in Tottenham and didn't used to speak like I do now.
I love dressing up. As kids, my friends and I would dress up as the Spice Girls - Posh Spice was my favourite because I had short brown hair like her.
I already feel a bit annoyed at myself for writing screenplays. It's a bit, I don't know, model-singer-dancer-actress that went to a posh school. There's something too weirdly predictable about it.
Sometimes I get to put on posh frocks and be Madam Glamour, the vendor of my wares. My lovely friend Kath, a stylist, puts me into things I'd never dream of. But my real life is very different. It's very, very home-based - an intense domestic life, that's the core of everything.
I've enjoyed many camping holidays with my sister and her children, but we're pretty posh campers.
You can't beat a good millefeuille, which is basically a posh custard slice. Yum!
I do want people to think of me as an actor, not just a posh actor who does posh parts.
People want to see me as a posh square, so I'll play an East End drag queen or a young man with a cleft palate.
If I keep doing films like 'The Riot Club' they're going to think I'm a posh git.
People put me in this ditzy, posh and stuck-up category, so it's been nice the public have been able to see the real me.
I didn't know we'd been tagged as posh. I went to a state school in London, so maybe people think I have a posh voice and that's where it comes from?
I am so proud to have the endorsement of a distinguished leader like Glenn Poshard.
As an elected official, an advocate for children, and an educator, Glenn Poshard has always fought for what's right.
I never know what defines you as being posh. I went to a posh school, definitely.
I'm not actually posh; I'm really rough and from the wrong side of the tracks. I grew up in Putney, which is pretty rough.
Basically the real decision making in the Labour party is old white men, assisted by young, posh men.
I've played a lot of very posh, sort of noble or aristocratic English people, which is nothing like what I am, so I feel that there is quite a lot distance there and have played a little bit far away from myself.
What has happened to the good old-fashioned travel agent? I want to go to a really posh travel agent and have them organise everything for me. I don't want to do things on the Internet.
