Minions of "Fashion"
At my school, we're doing a magazine fundraiser, where if you sell your quota, you get to dress down for a few weeks, yadda yadda yadda. I have yet to sell my quota, so it's still polyester green kilts for me, but a lot of people have.
The girls at me school annoy me. Well, most of them. I'm sure this is how anyone who has a true interest in fashion, REAL fashion, and lives in the suburbs, feels.
With the exception of a few girls, practically all the "popular girls" who on their myspace pages say "OMG I love fashion!", have been wearing slight variations of this:
Ew. How tired is that?
But wait! Sometimes the shirt is substituted with one of these!
Or this!
Or this!
I truly just DON'T understand this: Why would you spend $40 dollars on a sweatshirt JUST BECAUSE IT HAS HOLLISTER PLASTERED ACROSS THE FRONT. Maybe I'm thick, but I just don't understand it.
And I am not fashion-forward. I mean, I'm not a major trendsetter. I can't be. My tastes are greater than my budget. Vintage shops are non-existent around me. New York is 4 hours away. I live in the middle of no where. Oh great. Now I'm depressed.

i feel your pain.... and loathe hollister as well! why cant they be creative? btw, ive been meaning to link you... but im alazy bum, so it took me forver to add u. haha.
i feel your pain too...$40 for a hoodie!??! puh-lease.
it's times like these in which i'm glad that i live in england: a land far far away from hollister and a&f.
i sometimes try to explain to people who say that stuff like that is fashion that it really isn't. but they never quite understand. people need to realise what the difference is between fashion and just mindlessly following the crowd.
i COMPLETELY understand.. my school is totally preppy. though some outfits are kinda cute, they're just wayyy too similar.
