女為悅己者容,士呢?

對準流行最大的元素之一是視覺效果,是如何將自己的風格品味用視覺的角度呈現 當然這並不是全部,一個人對飲食,音樂以至於生活態度都是可以非常流行的,但所謂 佛要金裝,人要衣裝,一個人若要被稱為流行的一份子,在穿衣搭配這方面絕對不能忽略。 

但即然我今天沒有準備任何圖片,自然這不是個穿搭講堂了,我想要說的是,我們認真的把自己穿的流行也好,前衛也罷,是為自己還是為了別人? 還是,為了自己也為了別人? 所謂的為自己難道只是攬鏡自照時的滿足感嗎? 如果是的話那我們根本沒有必要穿出門,每天站在鏡前擺弄就行了。 

但有可能只為了別人嗎? 是為了哪個別人? 為了能悅己的那個他人而打扮,還是純粹的想要在擁擠的東區巷弄裡鶴立雞群,與"眾"不同? 對我而言,兩著皆是,也都不是。 

穿的fashionable是對自己也對別人的視覺饗宴,是對自我的了解也是了解別人的方式,所以可以說是為了自己也為了別人,我穿上自己所認同的衣服褲子鞋子配件出門。 

但從另一個角度,我們穿衣服也許早已不為了所謂的自己或他人,而只是單純的行使一個不同社會背景下形成的行為,就像一個習慣,一個在消費文化的社會下被養成的習慣,就像點頭問好或是記得守時,不要插隊之類的社會規範。

我們每天投入時間金錢的穿搭自己其實無形的正在演化一個新的社會規範,一個看似奔放無所限制,其實是更為繁複,變動並且更為嚴苛的儀式。 也許吧,不管是自己,他人,或是這個社會,想盡辦法搭上流行的列車,並且盡量坐在前座的趨勢已然蔓延。

明天,從區別春夏與秋冬的流行的關鍵點來看看fashion。

關於流行

關於流行是什麼我想每個人都有自己的一套邏輯, 從黑白灰的極簡搭配法則到穿甚麼都行但鞋子一定要很高級的特別品味者, 都是他們自己認同的流行。 當然也有自己走不出的迷思, 有愛買夾克,卻常常抱怨衣櫃裡的褲子太少, 但一出門逛街所倒之處卻還是常常停留在夾克上的偏執狂, 也有打折品才入手不管正價商品有多好的的撿便宜消費者 至於流行單品本身的呈現也幾乎是無法一概而論的, 同樣一件單品可以在兩個完全不同品味的人身上找到,而兩樣看似毫不相干的單品卻也常常可以完美的融入一個人的風格中。流行單品本身幾乎是沒有界線的,是我們自己給航行在流行這片汪洋茫茫然不知所措的現代人們一艘艘不同風格的船來搭乘。 對我而言,自然我是站在某一艘所謂的風格的船上,使用著自己的邏輯,重蹈著自己的迷思來看待流行,其用意不在挑戰任何其他不同品味的消費者,反而是希望再將來的某一天我可以發現自己所搭乘的這艘"風格船"倒底是個什麼樣子。

JOB HUNTING

To be honest, handing in Cv to the retailing store is quite a good fun although long walking to everywhere makes me feel like a dunky--very durable and honest to go forward step by step. Of course, it would be great that I could get a job after this long hunting. I hunt job, and wish all those "preys" can bite me back, at least a bite of inerview. However, this is not the office job, not the "25000 up" ponds job, but it is a job. A job which allows me to dress well, to talk to and observe people. The most important, a job for me to live in London. It has not come yet, but it will be. If 36 CVs to the shops are not enough, then I will hand in 72 copies of them. One of them in this hugh Lodon will be accepted by one gifted manager eventually. Back to CV, I prefer to apply in person rather than apply on line, although it seems that on-line applying is more formal than just pop in the store and say: "hey, is it possible for me to drop my CV here if there is any van...

Norwegian Wood

Yok says that i like this song very much. Yes, I do. Everytime I listen to this song, I feel that I am in the old British house with a strong fire in the fireplace, and it is about 9ish in the evening and it is always in the winter. Most of time I would sit on the sofa, by the side of the fireplace and the smell of old carpet and wood would mix up to become a scent of enternity--old, but timeless. I would repeat the song again and again with eyes closing to let the every little stories of my life run in my mind without any pause. Most of time, I couldn't even have time to think of any event happened in my life, the song repeated itself again. Life is very long if I can live up to 80 years old, but life is also relatively very short, if we only extract the essence of it and compare it with a legth of a song, like the Norwegian Wood, maybe life could be shorter than 2 minutes and 5 seconds. Well, this is what I always think of when listening to the song, and I still don't know ho...
