The Fashion of You – 3 thoughts.

This to a certain…ok large extent sounds like a Holden Caufield-esque rant about how what we wear determines us etc.

First of all let’s break it down into chunk then look into it.

1. How we feel on the day can be communicated by what we wear

2. The obvious ‘demographic’ look

3. Statement Steves

Think those 3 are a good start.

1. How we feel on the day can be communicated by what we wear

Have you ever looked at your rack/ stack of tshirts – chosen.

Checked the look of the jeans/ pants to go with it – chosen.

These choices were not made by, ‘this is the look I want’ but more so by ‘this is what I feel like’.

You have right?

The theory I go by is that it’s your subconscious way of saying “this is how I feel today, take a look and approach accordingly”.

Quick example. Rockin the ugly huge sunnies and a college hoody with trackpants isn’t the most friendliest way to greet a friend unless you are REAL TIGHT, in that case it’s kinda cool. (think this relates to the females more…correct me if I’m wrong)

2. The obvious ‘demographic’ look

So you’re an angered youth – go emo (you may lynch me later)

So you have no intelligence – go jock (don’t pop your collar…and fluro is not fashionable)

So you think you’re fashionable – go retard (basically dress like a dyslexic giraffe was your robe coordinator)

So you’re 50 cent – go fake (metal coated plastic chains are not hard…they’re stupid)

So you’re gay – go look at point 3 (you’ll see in point 3)

If i haven’t pissed off everyone by now you are uber resilient or yes you got it! This is all not to be taken so seriously.

We all throw ourselves under a demographic or subculture that we believe defines us…half the time none of us know what we truly represent. The other half is a stupid jock that is rich via daddy so why care.

ANYWAY the point of number 2 is to reconsider what ‘niche’ do we really think we’re in…that’s all.

And do we fit, or is it all a happy facade for recognition?

3. Statement Steves

This is the person you see often that wears something a bit too outrageous or plain ugly on purpose so people notice them.

A feeble cry – to the natural instinct of wanting to be noticed. To these people…capital punishment should be reintroduced. Which super doting idiot with a fedora the size of Kansas doesn’t deserve a douche slap?

Or the super freak that wears leather pants and a fluro top doesnt deserve a public tar and feather?

There’s more examples but you get the idea – don’t over do it…we all have elements of it – like getting out that secret dress or pants/ shirt we have for a hidden giggle.

Just don’t over do it…you look like less fun than a clown in the rain and yes just about the same entertainment value.

Apart from that. Have a great day – these are thoughts so feel free to criticize or praise. Or just say something strange.

Peace
