…FASHION FRENZY…

Fashion… It is a word that everyone living on Earth knows. Even small kids will nod their heads when they hear that delicious word. It is a norm in today’s modern world to see kids on the streets sporting designer labels such as Gucci, Prada, Bonia, Levi’s, DKNY, Guess, Louis Vuitton, Gap, Roxy, Versace, Esprit and of course the list goes on and on and on…………………. It is never ending. Full stop. But the true question is, what do you actually know about fashion?

Well, everyone has their own perception about fashion. For me, personally, I feel that we don’t actually have to sport designer labels to be fashionable. Sometimes, by just being yourself, you are already fashionable in your own unique way. Uniqueness is a gift from God, so be proud to have it. Fashion victims such as the rich and famous Paris Hilton who thinks of fashion as the elixir of life, spend a fortune just far the sake of being fashionable. Her hairstyle, her clothes, her shoes and her bags are a ‘must have’ for teenagers who really adore her. Fashion victims will in turn follow exactly what their fashion idol wear and then right after that we will hear parents, who love to make mountains out of molehills, *hehehe…* nagging about something which they consider as a worldwide astronomical catastrophe, which is the rising prices of petrol and other problems related to the magic word which keeps mankind alive and hungry for more entertainment, MONEY.

This is the problem. ‘Shopaholics’ don’t usually care about the financial status of their family when it comes to quenching their shopping thirst . I don’t think it is wise if your family is facing a major financial problem but you still insist on getting that new outrageously gorgeous top that you have just seen from Guess. Or even that new pashmina shawl which feels as soft as the blue clouds on your hands which you have just touched from Gap. But that is the reality which is happening now. Fashion victims will do all they can, either by hook or by crook, in order to be able to dress up like their fashion idols. Just in order to be so called fashionable in their own way, they will eventually hurt their wallets and they might be even leading themselves to bankruptcy. Now, the million dollar question is, is that wise? I will now leave that question unanswered….
