brand slut
i am not considering the "slut" here as a negative word, though usually it'd piss me off when i hear the s word used on me.
truth is truth. luxury brands do tickle my most sensitive nerve and make the most common style suddenly become a lot more appealing. and usually it also stands for taste, top quality workmanship, premium material (i am speically fond of high quality leather!) and very fine cutting, etc... so yeah, i dont mind being called as a brand slut.
i have a super size closet, accoridngly to other ppl, which i dont find it THAT big. when ppl see my shoe closet, usually they go "fuck!" or "Jesus". but still, i sometimes find i miss some bags or shoes to go with certain clothes.
my newest love is a pr of gorgeous christian louboutin boots. i had never seen anything this perfect for me. really there is nothing i could complain about it, which doesnt happen very often. well, if i have to come up with one, i wish they were cheaper. but thn if you see lots of ppl wearing it, it also defeats the purpose of having them i guess.
since i am only into top brands and i am not born rich, i am often broke. i am that kind person who'd spend couple thousands on a wallet and thousands on shoes when i used to only make 10,000 a mth.
who cares about money. if what i am buying is gonna make me happy, it certainly beats having those paper with chairman mao on it in my bank account.
after all, life is all about experience the most you can and make yourself happy, now isnt it?
my latest purchase is a burberry handbag. it has the right size, not too bag not too small, right shape, looks just belong to where it should be under your arms, right color, classical burberry check with patent black leather piping, right accessories, gloss heavy metal D rings, buckles and zip puller. i am in the bag and luggage business. i know what takes to make a upscale bag. and i am absolutely anal and increditibly picky when it comes to bags.
i just cant stand any flaws and thats why i cant shop fake ones. i dont know how i do it but i always see the smallest scratch on the metal parts, or slightly crooked buckle, etc. so whatever end up in my closet, just has to be the most perfect piece.
sometimes i also wish i could be less picky. but then that wouldnt be me.
i love that oscar wilde quote, "i have the simplest taste... i'm always satisfied with the best." in my boyfriend's word, i have expensive taste, which is pretty much true. and i am not ashamed of it.
yes this might sound somehow cocky or arragont, but, i believe i am those ppl who are able to carry designer stuff. i most defnitely almost wear the clothes, will never let any clothes wear me.
those ppl who could make a 100 kuai shirt looks like a dior homme shirt, i adore you! you dont have to spend thousands of dollars to look good. of course it is never a bad thing if you could.
those ppl who make a real hermes birkin looks like a knockoff, i despite you! it is such a waste for those fine products to end up with ppl like that. money can buy you fashion, but it cant buy you the look. you will just end up look like somebody who just won a lottery from ML class. here is a good sample: http://www.notsoraggedyane.com/
