This is how I feel about trendy urban fashion.

Nothing like white rich texas kids running around with a $40,000 Suburban with Chrome rims listening to Gangster rap while wearing cowboy hats. Gotta have the cowboy hat. :|

So last night at the movies I see a group of black kids wearing great big "dinner plate" western belt buckles.... I about died... did I miss something? I have never in my life seen something that looked so riduculous as the bagging pants and a huge imitation trophy belt buckle.....:S:D

(For those who missed the video, it was making fun of those who wear wool hats in the summer, for fashion).

The thing is, if you criticize this fashion you must also criticize ALL fashion (wearing clothing not for function), or you self-contradict.

Many people wear long pants and jackets to work (or dinner, or clubs), even in the heat of the summer, because it is either socially acceptable or even required in some cases. If a warm hat covering your head is stupid in the heat, a hot suit covering your whole body is even stupider. I think clothing fashion is a silly thing to begin with, but if I have choose between the guy in the wool hat and the guy in the suit, I will give the guy in the wool hat credit for at least trying to be original, rather than following the herd (though he's still a jackass).

Seriously, all "fashion" is a trend to some degree or another, some of these trends just happen to be more accepted in our society (which is still just a grain of sand in the universe). "Dress shoes"? Ties? Shirts with collars? What function does ANY of that serve?

In some alternate universe somebody is being denied access to a dance club because he doesn't have a wool cap on, and he's being called a "trendy urbanite" for dangling a flat striped piece of fabric from his neck.

SHIT!

IT wasn't just about the wool hat in summer. It was also about the t shirt that said "PHRESH" and the torn jeans.

"whoops, looks like your pants are torn at the knees., But that's intentional, isn't it?? You're a BAD BOY! Society wants your jeans to be intact, but you just won't listen, will you?"
