Let's Discuss: The Carbon Copy Mafia.

Untitled #184



"Great style should invoke a conversation, make people think, and may even offend." 

The wonderful thing about fashion and style is the opportunity you have to express yourself. There are endless options to showcase your personal style with fun designers, thrift stores, online shopping, etc etc. Whatever you desire isn't really that hard to find, but you have to be willing to look for it.

With that being said, this new age of social media and Internet gives us a peek into worlds and places we may not otherwise see. Inspiration level be on ten. But it also restricts many in a way. I'm ok with people recreating what they see on runways or on their favorite celebrities. But when everyone zeroes in on the same concept and totally saturates my eyeballs with non-thinkingness, it's not beneficial for anyone. Just a bunch of  carbon copies of the same look.
