As a contrarian with a disgust for the tastes of the masses though I often avoid wearing things once they become trendy until they cool off again—I do not wish to be associated with it or look like an impressionable person, and I certainly don’t want to fit in.

🪞I think the idea of hating on trendy things for the sake of wanting to be seen as different is very corny. I understand that not developing your own sense of style and copying whatever you see on tiktok or ig without adding your personal touch is an indicator of the lack of creativity, but that (imo) doesn't apply to people that genuinely like the item/style...If you for example like sambas or the leopard print baggy jeans and can get multiple uses out of them then that's great! you're not a microtrend final boss if you wear these items...

👕1. making choices solely based on what’s “flattering.” I think ppl are far too attached to the idea that a piece has to “look good on you” in order to wear it. if you want to wear something because it’s comfortable or the piece looks cool or whatever the reason, you should wear it free of any mental burden.
2. heavily curating one style/core/aesthetic/microtrend. say you’ve been living large in the clean girl aesthetic for years and one day you find a dark academia piece you really like and so you spend an exorbitant amount of money on replacing your clean girl wardrobe with a dark academia one. girl, the environment. can we not all agree that we’re all likely mashups of different things with diverse taste or is that just me??

🧥fast fashion is pushing our planet into the trash, why would you pay attention? don't follow the brands, and don't follow influencers who seriously promote the brands.
buy vintage. find people who each think for themselves, and appreciate them for the way they explore their own style, and not as platonic ideals you need to imitate.

My dad teases me about how when I was a little kid, my favorite thing to do when I was on the landline phone with somebody—be it a relative or one of my best friends—was to breathlessly describe the things that were in my bedroom so that they could have a mental picture of everything I loved and chose to surround myself with, and where I sat at that moment in time. Perfectly Imperfect reminds me of that so thanks for always listening and for sharing with me too 💌
