Back when I was a High School
student. I’m not really into a Fashion. I don’t care what types of outfit I’m
wearing and I don’t care what other people would say about me. I was used to
just getting up each morning throwing a pair of jeans, oversized shirts, and
sneakers, and I was good to go.
Maybe because I’m not exposed in
the fashion scene here in the country during high school or I’m not really
updated about latest trend and all the fashion thingy. I find it intimidating
when I see girls wearing sky high stilettos, cute tops and designer bags,
because I once dream of wearing the same thing. And maybe because sometimes I
see pieces or looks that I knew I would never be caught dead wearing because I
didn’t think I’d be able to rock them.
But now, my mentality as long as
the mentality of other People has changed. In this day and age, you are judged
by what you wear. People greet each other with a cursory look at one’s outfit,
and if appropriate, notes of approval. Either you’re In or Out!
For some, Fashion used as a status symbol of sorts, a way to elevate
their social standing. If you shop at
Topshop, Manggo, and Zara then you are considered elite, but if you shop at the
thrift shop then you are no body because you are poor. If you carry a Louis Vuitton
bag then you are recognizable and respect worthy and If you own an imitation LV
then you are accordingly dubbed
as social climber.
The bottom line is who cares if
what you’re wearing was designed by so and so? Why should we follow trends and
be made to look like each other’s clone? Like most of the Fashion bloggers! Why
designers’ pieces are ridiculously expensive?
Remember that Fashion doesn’t need
to be expensive. At the end of the day, it’s not about the price that matters;
it’s how you carry a certain outfit with confidence. As what Fashion
designer Giavani Versace said “Don’t be into trends. Don’t make Fashion own
you. You decide what you are, what you want to express in the way you dress and
the way you live.” So Fashion is a form of self-expression. What you wear is a
window to what goes on inside your minds and how you feel inside your heart, something
that would reflect your character and your life style.
Guys, don’t be afraid to
dressed-up. Explore and Experiment. Fashion is indeed Fun and Colorful. Fashion
should be something we enjoy. Just like me, Way back when I’m just starting my
Fashion blog. I was dubbed as a Fashion Victim and even on the worst dressed
list of my friend Swendy. But It didn’t stop me. I pursue what I know I am
absolutely in love with and I’m doing it passionately.
Just be yourself always and dont be afraid to try something new
everyday.
