(Source: Jordan Loves Kats) Picture a guy, you'd picture him to be proportional, nice big 'v' upper torso, slim yet muscular legs, now picture that same guy, wearing t-shirts 2 sizes too small, and jeans that look like he stole them from his 12 year old sister. Clothes are not meant to be so tight. Trends are here because people don't have a personal sense of style and follow them, it's perfectly fine to follow a trend, but when it becomes really fucking eye sore, you yourself, looking in the mirror, should know how fucking ridiculous you look. Many of these trend followers, take a tailored fit to be a skinny fit, but that's totally wrong, tailored fits are made to accentuate your body, not shrink wrap them. I think the most important thing when it comes to clothes, is that they should be comfortable. Why wear something that you'll be uncomfortable in through-out the day? I get it when girls wear skinny jeans, they're girls... the jeans are made that way to show off their asses, who the fuck would want to see a guy's ass and thighs? Unless that's what you want.. by all means, go ahead. But not all trend followers are into shrink wrap, some, or if not most of them in at least my circle of people, are into brands, even if the brand produces shit products, with shit worksmanship and shit materials BUT slap a nice big price tag and their brand logo, it's sold. Most of at least my local cosumer market don't know about what they're buying, all they know is the hype. Take TOPMAN for example, every singaporean guy has at least a few pieces from there, but little do they know that for the price they buy that sub-standard blazer, they could get one perfectly tailored. Everything in my local market is overpriced, profits is all everyone cares about, only a very small select few have been standing by that quality beats quantity any time. Chain clothing stores have been sprouting in Singapore like weeds, hiring foreign workers, paying them the borderline & inflating their prices. A pair of pants could cost maybe 15£, here, it would cost maybe $60, does that sound right? When I'm overseas, I enter shops, the people working there are always very enthusiastic about the shop they're working for, they practically know almost everythng there is to know, and are helpful no matter what. Here in our little red dot, most people working at the retail stores know nothing of the products, and I mean NOTHING.. all they could possibly tell you is if there's stock left, and maybe read the label and tell you where it's made. That's it. What I'm saying is that, you consumers, you should be your own guide on what to buy. It's your money anyway, why buy something someone else thinks it's cool, you should buy it 'cause you think it's cool.
