With my last rant about my size behind me, I would like to inform everyone I found a fantastic dress that makes me feel pretty. So this is all well and good.
Which got me on the topic of fashion, and how I look back on pictures of me from when I was younger and you would have never pegged me for the fashionista I am now…In fact, you might even be discouraged and think, my god, don’t let that women dress anyone.
But for the past year and a half I have had friends tell me they love certain things about my make up and or style, and that they wish they had it. And I kept thinking, you mean “lack of style?” Because it doesn’t take much to have a lack of style…
But I guess I consider myself rather fashionable, I mean after all I am the friend that people call to take with them because they can say "I like this skirt/pant find me something to go with it" and with a matter of seconds I have them going "wow I look amazing.”
A talent I think? But I’m also good at being CHEAP and fashionable. Meaning I can accessorize too. I can make pretty much anyone look good, except myself. Why is that?
Probably just suffer from being my own worst critic.
In any event, it also brought to my attention the fact that there are some people who are label whores and not even in a good way. Just because you have a purse from Dior, doesn’t make you “cute” in fact, it just meant you spent 500.00 on something that’s going to get beat up, have make up spilled in it, and start reeking that “purse” smell, and you’re wearing clothes from target…
What? Why?
If you are going to be a true label whore I expect you to be wearing clothes that fit your hips, contrary to popular belief, mushroom top is not in (aka, your flab hanging out the sides of your pants because they’re ill fitting.) Instead, I expect to see you wearing Guess® jeans and coordinating Guess® shirt, Perhaps some Chanel® sunglasses and then maybe you can carry your Dooney and Burke® purse around and be a true label whore.
But even still, I will want you to die because contributing to companies like that is fucking stupid, when you could have saved your money and bought something cheaper that looks the exact same. But you’ve done it all for the sake of “being cute.” And you even failed miserably… very few can pull this off… very few.

::gasp:: You have it all wrong!!! I buy designer because it lasts forEVER. My target clothes fall apart in the wash; my Ross heels break after a month. However, my Coach purse has lasted through everything I've thrown at it, and my Dolce shoes haven't had any issue in TWO YEARS.
Quality, my friend, quality
Funny, I've had sweaters from nameless stores that have lasted me years, and pants that have done the same. Infact, my ross bought jeans lasted me 4 years....
I think you just trick yourself into believing such stuff. Not all of it is quality, and your quality was made by some kid in a sweat shop for 2 cents an hour. that makes me sad!
And I told you, very few people can pull it off. You are one of them, even if you are corportized. You can pull the look off. And I still love you.
I can pull the look off because I am FABULOUS and have no conscience. Where are you finding these clothes that last? Cause I end up with holes in awkward places within a week.
Im not sure, but uh, could just be usage... but I pretty much get something and wear it to the ground.
And you just must suck at wearing clothes. its funny the "label" clothes I've worn, have had holes within me trying it on. so... yea...
Hey, do my levi's that got a hole in the corner of the butt pocket count?
I gotta get something, I feel left out! haha
Ahahahah No, Nickels it does not.
