Vague Vogue

The Cookie-Cutter Fashionista…is that me? I wondered as the words lay mockingly across this old issue of Vogue.

You know that feeling? When you longingly admire a particular look on a celebrity and covet that same wave of envy you now feel, for yourself? If only you had the same bag, or get-up?

Banal, but definitely familiar.

It occured to me how many purchases could have been saved had I had the clarity to know that I could dress like anyone but I could never be them. There’s no need to emulate any look, not even if it’s an expression of the sincerest form of flattery.

Note to self. Stop cookie-cutting. And Start Investing in Me.
