Fashion, a word which may mean the world to teenagers, office girls and even teachers... What is so important about the word?
Well, recently, i was troubled over something... but is linked to the idea of fashion. Do we live to dress or do we dress to live? Sounds familiar?
Haha.. it actually is similar to the "Do we eat to live? Or live to eat?" That question is posed to many dieting freaks, heck-care-i'm-gonna-eat-till-i-die freaks.. So now, I'm posing the earlier question to those who are constantly chasing after the latest fashion; be it the latest clothing fashion (jap wear, bohemian, plain ripping ur clothes apart, surfer gal look), IT gadget fashion (handphones, PDAs, 3G gadgets) or even artiste fashion (lin jj,angela, lindsay,5566 etc..).
About what I was troubled about, it was about the clothes. Clothes are coverings which we put on to protect our modesty and for the sake of keeping warm and being comfortable. But recently, i found myself going after clothes because they were "in", fashionable and EVERYONE SEEMED TO HAVE A PIECE OF THAT!
That is the inevitable stress of mankind of being in the "in crowd", being accepted and able to mix into society without fail. Everyone wants to make sure that they are dressed to the nines, not looking sloppy and most importantly, not looking like a country pumpkin. They seem to follow trends blindly.. e.g. when the Mickey Mouse tees became fashionable and no longer deemed childish, the whole town seemed to caught on with the wave and dived straight in. Soon, the whole town seemed to have a piece of a mickey tee in their wardrobe. Tell me, which one of u doesn't?
I know some people who busy themselves to earn loads of money to be able to splurge on clothes and to be dressed in the latest trend. However, in time to come, they realise that that set of clothes is left in the shelf or even worst, worn to bed. It seems as though it is a sin to wear something that is not in fashion.
Back to the question of "Do we live to dress?", I know some people who are living to dress. People like models, fashion designers feel that it is only when they dress up that they live and feel alive. Actually, i think I'm getting myself confused with the idea already.
However, "do we dress to live?", I believe some people do. They dress to feel accepted. Like some people actually dress in branded goods because 1. it makes them feel accepted as a upper class citizen 2. they like to "show off" in their designer wear 3. they like the feeling of being dorned in great quality clothes 4. dressed in unique designs which not every single person has. They live the life which their clothes determine them to be. Haha...
I'm still confused with my idea. Perhaps coz it's really late already and I'm falling asleep. Sorry for the poor attempt. Anyway, I'm just trying to say, "FASHIONS ARE NOT WORTH CHASING AFTER!!! oh gosh... ^.^ "
