Everyone is starting to look the same.
Well ok, maybe not everyone. Some of us like to purchase our clothes from stores/countries that the masses will not be running to tomorrow to buy the exact same thing as each other.
Or so we hope.
I am a lover of H&M (Hennes and Mauritz). It doesn’t get much better in the way of affordable clothes. Many thanks to the people of Sweden!
Though, after walking into General Pants (a shop I used to love) *note: used to* I keep seeing the exact same designs of things I’ve bought, or wanted to buy from H&M.
Not only are we so far behind the times we not only don’t have these designs earlier - WE DON’T EVEN HAVE A H&M.
And our designers are apparently finding it ok to steal their designs. And I mean same patterns, cuts and type of material!
Don’t Ask Amanda has produced two pieces so far that I have seen - who knows how many I have missed?! - That are exactly the same as 2 pieces I have purchased from H&M. In July last year and January this year. What is going on?
Stop allowing people to steal creations from the Swedes and just GIVE US H&M!
It is getting ridiculous. We’re starting to all look the same and it’s making my soul sad. I admit, I have bought some mass-produced pieces in the past. Mostly things like lace gloves etc. But I bought them last July. At H&M. Bless.
But I try to mix it up a bit so I’m not walking around in the city and see a chick wearing the exact same skirt as me (but looking better in it).
No deal.
So please, make an effort to buy things a little out of the norm. You may bring a style back in fashion. Just stay away from the 90s. No one was happy there.
Have a fantabulous day… and for me, dress a little differently? (Sort-of-Rhyme: Unintentional)
