all tongue and no taste is when someone either rich or has a lot of stuff but still buys ugly or naff stuff. similar to “money can’t buy taste”
i said it the other day when i couldn’t think of the phrase but i think it works
person 1: omg did you see jessica’s new designer bag?
person 2: it’s so fugly, who’d even pay that much for that shit?
person 1: fr, all tongue and no taste. if i were rich i’d buy decent stuff at least
