So you think your cool huh?


Have you ever just been skimming through a magazine and you pass a page where there's a remarkably beautiful woman posing taking up a huge page, modeling? If your looking through a fashion magazine or a magazine made just for woman, you'll probably notice on the bottom that there's a little paragraph stating all of the companies of which the apparel the woman is wearing and all of its prices. Now days everything's about "fitting in" and trying to be a part of the cool crowds. These magazines advertising want you to leave an imprint of their clothing in your head so that you'll have that "drive" to want their clothing. I mean i completely understand that now days you cant look bad or just dress crappy because that's just not how things are anymore and of course you do want to feel good about yourself and impress others. Its just something people do for themselves. But the problem starts when people don't want to shop at places like Target or Kmart for clothing because apparently that's just for people who "don't have money", and those are the people out there spending hundreds of dollars in name brand stores like Coach or Abercrombie, all just to be able to say "Oh yea i got this in Abercrombie", because apparently that makes them high class. And to top it off the people you see spending those amounts of money on top notch clothing are probably the people that dont have the money!
