Guilty Pleasure.

Every answer has its question but not every question has its answer. Figuring out a reason why you love something so much that it hurts, seems absurd. You just love it, and that is why it is interesting.  But then again, curiosity gets the best of you and you can’t help but wonder. To someone’s perspective that could be obsessive or a tad weird but what’s wrong in loving something so dearly that letting it go is impossible.

  Everyone has their little secret that they can’t let go of and mine is fashion. Probably most normal adolescent would to. Fashion is awfully difficult to fathom but that’s the beauty of it. It’s completely mysterious, you just want more. If you understand why there is so much to love about it, the world would slowly revolve around it. Everywhere you go, you see fashion. A fabulous world filled with colours, pattern, people being themselves and comfortable in their own skin. Isn’t the world just beautiful that way? A perfect guilty pleasure.

   To keep us on our toes, we at least need an inspiration. Someone to look up to whenever we lose our touch. My inspiration relies on my sense of style some goes to everyone else. It is like a life long journey in finding who you truly are, instead of changing who you are. Change is good but why waste all that away for something you are not. Yet some people choose trends to define them and what’s not follow?

  People make trends; in fact everyone is their very own trendsetter. The latest trend to make a comeback is the skater skirt which is inspired by the short flirty skirts worn by ice skaters. And of course, how can we forget tribal prints? This Native American inspired print is taking this world by storm. Literally it is in every store I’ve seen here in Malaysia! Like forever 21, Kitschen and etc.

   However, when someone forbids you from loving something you love, you’re crushed. It’s like you lost your very own comfort zone, and into the world of full with mundane and plastic people. Well, at one point loving something so much that it hurts is cumbersome. Especially when you’re separated from it. Each moment you move on without it, is each moment you are closer to heartache. Heart breaking tragedy, indeed.

   For people to call you a fashionista when you are thrown away from it seems pretty absurd. Think of the barriers people go through just to be fashionably happy is pathetic. But remember that not getting what you want is sometimes a wonderful stroke of luck. Probably after going through a road packed with disapproval, finance difficulties or even size problem, we could pull through it.

  Getting yelled at because the peplum skirt you’re wearing is too short, slowly glaring through stores window display because you can’t afford a leather jacket or can’t seem to fit into a perfect dress to your prom night. What a nightmarish affair! Worry not, where there’s a way, there’s a will. Be firm when you get yelled at, purchase online goodies for half the price and of course, search clothes with number sizes instead of alphabetically.

   Being different from anyone else will take you far in this fashion industry. It’s a big world filled with people ready to step on each other to the top. That’s life. Set your goal; reach for the stars, stamp your mark on something you’re passionate about and it will take you far. Even if it takes a while, always have this in mind, “Be patient, good things happen to those who wait.” And good things might as well happen to you.

  Having your name on a billboard is such a dream, that I fond of and wish to never wake up. If only dreams like this could come true. And it only will if you truly believe in yourself. The reason why you are still alive is because you are meant to make a difference in this world. Even if it’s a small difference, it’s still a difference that could possibly change one’s life.
