But I hate it when i see someone trying to look like my double. Those jockers could never have the swag i have, so I dont sweat it.; ▶ Reply to This

but the thing is if its blatant like when you wear something one day and someone you come in contact with frequently immediately buys the same thing and wears it right away the same way you did...
its another thing to admire someones style and take an item you saw them in and make it your own so you wear it well with your own twist, not that the item is wearing you and you look like a fad follower...if that makes sense:); ▶ Reply to This

"Limited Edition" means just that, so unless you're a Sultan who only buys exclusive 1 offs I think you should count your blessings that you move in a circle that not only has the means and access, but good taste :) It's not like that here in New Zealand being equally far away from anywhere (other than Aus), which works as both a blessing and a stupid curse.; ▶ Reply to This
