Clothes: the stupid obsession

[Boricua_papi]

Why do so many people get obsessed with clothes and willing to go into debt just to remain "in style" - an ideal that changes from week to week? Really, a person is more than the clothes that they wear. Those who choose to define themselves based on the clothing that they wear will find themselves, as people, fading from relevance as quickly as their clothes fall out of fashion.

I dress for comfort and maybe people will make assumptions about me because of it but that's ok. I have nothing to prove and don't need acceptance based on something as profoundly unimportant as the brand of shoes or style of suit that I wear. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/smirk.gif[/img]

There is no such thing as style for women anymore. Style never changes. It is all fad and fads change all the time. It's the way the clothing industry makes its money.

Women have pants, dresses, blouses, skirts, then they have to match the shoes, purse, stockings (which tear easily and need replacing sometime after 1 wearing) all the mixing and matching of it all. It's enough to drive one crazy [img]/forums/images/graemlins/70392-silly.gif[/img] but I love it and have been a slave to fashion for most of my life. It is only beginning to wane and the need to have the latest item is no longer a driving force to shop. [img]/forums/images/graemlins/bannana_purple.gif[/img]
