complaints about fashion.

here's a list of complaints that have araised throughout this past 2 weeks about fashion in the USA.:
#1 holland t-shirts: henry holland's widely popular in your face slogan t shirts (and similars) have been around in europe for like the whole summer, how come they just popped in the USA?
#2 nu-rave: nu rave is a trend that the klaxons started just to get noticed, it was supposed to be a JOKE. then, suddenly everyone started copying it and voila! there's the hottest trend. now hipsters are bringing it to the USA as if it was the best "new thing" while it has been around for ages like the slogan shirts.
#3 PEOPLE IN THE STATES DONT KNOW HOW TO DRESS, well maybe a few know how,but most dont. i've watching some shows about benefactors and stuff,and they have tons of money and cant afford a simple beautiful dress, instead they wear stuff that looks like it came off an army store (and u can find even better things there.). horrible sick-yellow gowns with absolutely no shape, they cant even coordinate colors, (imagine that yellow with brown.. ugg gross), that not even the queen of england would wear, fuck not even my grandma. and i cant understand, they can have everything but not an stylist, wtf. not even actors know what to wear, if it wasnt for those "great" stylists (that even sometimes fuck up) they got, they would be totally lost. i mean when u see "celebs" anywhere elese than the red carpet, they look like vagabonds. fucking horrible.
4#THE BORDER MALLS SUCK or maybe i just saw the light of european fashion, but there's nothing good there anymore, everyone here at my town goes to laredo or mcallen to buy clothes and the effect of that is that many people buy the same item and you end up pissed off cause other 20 people got ur same "original"shirt. that sucks. all those stores got the same shitty clothes.
#5 CLOTHES ARE NO BETTER THERE THAN HERE AT MEXICO. fact: all the clothes u see in the mall are actually made here. most of them, or in china. so no weeping about "quality" here and there its the fucking same thing.

#6 THERE ARE NO STORES LIKE TOPSHOP AND THEY ONLY GOT ONE ZARA AND ITS NEW YORK. shops like topshop, h&m and zara, bring the trends of the runway to the common people who cant afford designer stuff. they actually have beautiful upadated clothing. while in the USA the stores are pretty common, with no designer like stuff.

note: the past 3 complaints are truth for only the states of the north of mexico and south of the USA.

note 2: actually most of them have to do with the border states cause that's "my reality".


ahh. im glad i got that off my chest.
i have more complaints but i cant post them all here. i thinl those are the main ones.

forgot one:
#6AMERICAN VOGUE SUCKS. really nothing to do with those from europe. teen vogue is at least a little better, but still short.

I completely agree with you, it's like you took the words out of my mind.

Yeah, malls in Laredo, Mcallen, are crap, thats the reason I always return empty handed. I rather buy something not as cheap in Zara,than a 5 dlls jacket in, say, Aeropostale. San Antonio is kind of better but anyways... (better sometimes means more expensive around here anyway)

I mean stroes like American Eagle, Aeropostake, etc, they're like uniform stores! They always have the same damn polo shirts and hoodies! And whats the outcome? everyone dressed exactly the same -_- .

& hell yeah US Vogue is crap, theres no creativity both in the styling (outfits) and photographs of editorials, its just like a bunch of models jumping or walking with a plain background. And they take outfits right of the catwalk, they dont even combine things.

As you can see i hate US Vogue.
I wish I could get Paris Vogue or even Italian Vogue or Numéro or etc... even Teen Vogue! it has nicer editorials, even if it is infested celebrity stuff (not that Us Vogue isn´t).

Ok im done venting ^^
i really needed it

Mira pues tienes toda la razooon.
La verdad es que como vivimos en la comunidad Tec(deaah) ke tiene gusto como preppy como deberia de ser, pues tenemos las mismos artículos de mercadotecnia :P alias ropa es horrible. Se supone que mediante la ropa obtienes identidad y si pues la otra persona la tiene igual que tu no es agradable saber que no eres original es estresante donde te ves mal copiando o imitandoo. oseaa el mundo mo es bonitoo te sientes menos, por esa insignificante razon.

Además de que las cosas esten hechas aqui en mexico y las tengas que coprar alla porque aqui no hay oseaaa ke ondaaaa cn ese rolloo esta super loco esto de la onda de la ropa pero pues es ciertoo

Sueño con algu dia en que Mexico se convierrta en un país mas fashionista, pero eso ni hasta en las mejores familias :(
