When it comes to style, Paris ranks No. 1, followed by Milan at No. 2. We’re 3 (sob), followed by London.

So says a Forbes survey of 10,000 people from 20 countries who ranked 50 cities based on “on such varied subjects as climate, physical attractiveness, restaurants and nightlife.” Our thoughts on this matter: Paris? No contest. But Milan? O-u-c-h. That makes our soul weep. (Hey, at least we aren’t Barcelona, a.k.a. No. 10.)
