what is perfect for you might not be perfect for me.

As the saying goes,” beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder”.Have you ever questioned yourself about why this very thing seems perfect to you? Is it really perfect or somebody made you believe that it is?

When someone mentions perfect, what is the first thing that pops into your head? A perfect face? A perfect body? A person who does everything with perfection including perfect clothing maybe?

The answer to this question varies with each individual based upon what they consume their most of the energy with.

You must have seen a meme, perhaps somewhere on Facebook where two pictures are compared where on one column it is shown clothes worn by a rich guy or a girl where his or her jeans is all ripped which is obviously on the fashion trend while on the other side, there is a picture of a kid who has worn ripped clothes as a result of over wearing it as he/she couldn’t afford many clothes.

Generally, People follow trends started by celebrities and celebrities mostly buy branded clothing. Do celebrities even qualm brands about the way they make them buy distressed look or did they trick us into believing that distressed look is on-trend and name old clothes as vintage outfits if the jeans got worn out. Perhaps the badass look that people got wearing ripped jeans made them like it more. High demand of something results in a rise of price. How that idea of distressed look came into existence is a history but there is a need that we must all follow the trend so that we mustn’t get a feeling of being left out from the rest.

Some people like the look they get representing themselves as the way poor dress in the name of trend or branded outfits; meanwhile, poor people dream of getting clothes so that they could properly cover their body parts and prevent themselves from the environmental risks and climatic changes to physically safeguard their body.

so, how does a person who doesn’t keep up with the fashion trend feel about putting on a distressed look? The answer is LAUGHABLE. My very own sister underwent a similar kind of situation. Our maid laughed at her when she saw her wearing ripped jeans. My sister knows that it’s on-trend and reacted in an awkward manner, Must have thought she knows nothing about how elegant this very ripped jeans made her look.while on the other side, Our maid must have thought to herself that she wouldn’t be wearing it even if someone offered such jeans to her for free.

Our ideas of perfection are limited to the way we see certain things and how certain people around us or the people whom we look up to see it. Nothing is actually perfect but they can be made, solely based upon someone’s vague definition of perfection.
