Ridiculous Fads

drEaMtiMe*@# said:
have people mentioned those damn- freakn'- ugly- asssss, Louis Vuitton handbags yet?

i swear ever second girl i see has one plastered on her arm.

also those hal.... (not sure of the brand name?) rubber thongs that come in all the colours of the rainbow are a pretty big fad atm too.

personally i dont really like them, i dont mind thongs in general, just those ones i'm very meh about.

Ah, the infamous Louis obsession.
First of all it should be pointed out that 'every second girl' probably has a fake LV bag, not a real one as they're expensive as fuck.
Secondly it should be pointed out that these bags are simply a piece of leather with a few initials printed on them that get given to a few famous people that in turn make them cool.
A friend of mine just paid $750 (Aus) for one the size of a pencil case... a fucking waste if you ask me.
The whole fad is that they're amazingly expensive and as such replication allows everyone to be cool.
Much like... Von Dutch.
:\

Havaianas are the thongs you're talking about, but I have to defend these.
Although they cost [on average] $14 more than the Two Buckers you buy from Big W they are Definately a lot more comfortable than the shitty ones.
Sure, you pay A SHITLOAD more, basically for the brand, but the materials they use don't give me blisters, like my old pairs of Two Buckers... and you can get away with wearing them practically anywhere as thongs are now IN (Great for a bum like me).
=D
Hail the Havaianas.
:)
PEACE

The 80's

it was bad then, and it's bad now

nah, seriously, the 80's were great. people write the 80's off just because of big hair and bananarama. greed and politics aside, the pop culture was brilliant. such technological advancement, brilliant films, brilliant music. beauty was more broad. being a kid was fab.

it you want to write off a recent decade look no further than the 90's.

that's what annoys me though. fashion is art, the more rare something is, the more unique, the cooler it is. why don't these girls get it that having the same lv bag as everybody else (as the same trucker hat, studded belt, low rise jeans) is just so not cool ?
 
Another fad, body piercing. Not as a whole, but more like females having their belly button done. I think at least 75% of teenage girls have their belly pierced. What's with that, it's not unique or anything cause every other female has one. Am I right or have missed something?
 
silvia: gets it.

breaka: nineties was grunge, apathy, and the beginning of mainstream pop culture in a way that we've never seen before.

codez: i was ready to go mad (i lurve piercings), but you're right. belly piercings are so overdone. i want(ed) to get my eyebrow done, but never will, because apparently it's the "cool" thing to do.
 
^^
Ah yes, where can we start?
AKIRA of course!!!
=D
In other news I thought I'd add that The most expensive (US$21.6 million) anime ever produced, Steamboy, Katsuhiro Otomoís long awaited follow-up to Akira is a science-fiction epic set in Victorian London. Ray Steam receives a marvellous and powerful invention called the ìSteam Ballî, from his grandfather in the U.S and must keep it from the nefarious Ohara Foundation which wants to use its power towards their own illicit ends. Steamboy has over 180,000 drawings and in excess of 400 CGI cuts, be sure not to miss it!
:)
It's on at the Luna, shall have to go soon.
Calling 'Japanimation' a fad is as bad as calling 'Short films' a fad... and that's bad... lad.
;)
PEACE
 
i just hate louis vuitton bags full stop. essentially i think their ugly. and an ugly bag is an ugly bag to me no matter if its real or fake.

killing_time: yeah Havaianas were the ones that i was talking about, but more so to describe the type of thong rather than the actually brand name. if their more comfy i say: hell yes, buy them instead! i just dont really like the look of all rubber thongs personally, but i know that a lot of other people do.
 
My mistake, I guess I just wanted to prove my fashion knowledge to the BL world through identifyin' them.
=D
They are very comfy and I find them quite attractive, so attractive infact I plan on marrying a pair this coming fall.
*Jokes... just in case you thought I was going to marry a thong*
;)
PEACE
 
Havainas? Oh those are brilliant. Really. Truly comfortable rubber thongs.

If you are going to hang shit on thong-style footwear, aim at those super trendy thongs like fcuk and diesel...

Thongs should not cost $75.

Try the Havainas!
