she's all over it

with much interesting thought process inclusive, from brooke.:

I just read your most recent blogspot, and I really like what you said about attempting fashion with financial constraints, and how fashion changes how you appear to people, not by general image, but by that extra little bit of confidence the right outfit can bring.
I've been noticing that most people in Mackay tend to associate fashion with a brand label, especially guys, and they think they are the absolute bee's knees if they get around in a shirt that says unit in big letters. Then this rubs off onto girls and before you know it, there is a swarm of slogan printed tshirts, and people think they are being fashionable because they are being a walking billboard for a brand. Brands aren't fashion, yet we would fork out so much for designer outfits, if we had the chance. If fashion is a look, and that extra little bit of confidence, why don't more people sew for themselves? People spend so much money to wear a certain fashion house, but if people started making their own clothes, using their own style, that would really be fashion.

thankyou, intelligence.
