Waking up in the morning and picking out clothes that you like, fit you well, and are truly comfortable and enjoyable to wear? Or did you pick out your “ensemble” based on the latest trends, according to the newest, hottest fashion magazine? So how long those trends are going to last? In a month or two, the seasons will change, and all of the new ones will arrive and again the same cycle starts.
Have you ever thought to why you choose to wear the clothes you do? Why in the world usually everyone choose to wear the same clothes as the celebrity of the second, when he/she know how quickly that second will pass? People are spending their money to look like a “Fashion Do”, but how quickly will the new outfit become a “Fashion Don’t”? All it takes is one crazy night out partying, and their celebrity of choice becomes unpopular, along with her clothing choices.
Are you wearing pointy, uncomfortable shoes because the last time you were at the grocery store, every cover was screaming that they were going to be “in” this season? Sheep form herds and follow the leader blindly.
Most commonly, following fashion trends and guidelines is one way to get noticed. But wouldn’t you rather get noticed for yourself, your conversational skills, or your originality? Or did you leave all that behind you when you started paying attention to the newest trends? So by not feeding in the fashion machine blindly one should purchase the things for himself which actually suits on him, that too with the present fashion trends.
When you constantly jump from trend to trend, the first thing to go it your originality. You wake up in them morning, and put on the “outfit” that “goes together”. In fact, you probably even purchased it as a complete ensemble – Isn’t it? Did it ever occur to you that you’re being played? The magazines, the media, the stores, and the identical outfits – it’s a set up! You’re being targeted to play a special role in a commercial machine – the consumer.
