So, I went to buy pants the other day. It was the first time in years. Well, if you count the couple of pairs that housekeeping threw out in Baltimore, it would be the second time in years. I find the pants section of the department store and am quite saddened by what I see.
When did it become fashionable to buy pants that look faded, dirty and tight? What the hell? If I want my pants to be faded, I'll wear them until they fade, they will also develope little holes in them. And it won't cost me extra to do that myself. And why is it called a wash? It's more like a worn attempt. Why would anyone buy stuff that is "preworn"? That makes no sense, "Lets buy stuff that looks like we have had it for years, we'll be so cool." Keep lying to yourself.
I thought that when I seen the sign for the kind I wear I would be saved from queerity. But, it was not to be. Even my trusted brand has fallen victim to this atrocious mistake for style. After much searching I was able to find a couple of pairs of good ol' solid blue. They could be a bit baggier, but at least they aren't "washed."
You may have to buy like 10 of them next time... before the whole world succumbs to the madness and there's no more good ole blue left anywhere :)
ReplyDeleteOscar Wilde once said, "Fashion is a form of ugliness so intolerable that we have to alter it every six months. Ironically, Mr. Wilde was queer.
