brisbanbino

just need to have a little rant at the boringness of brisbane. pretty much the fashion dud of australia.
there are a few little niches of fashion-inspiring-ness like parts of the valley and west end, but apart from that there's just a big void of copy-everyone/boring-ness.

there are all the school kids (yes i am i school kid but hopefully not in this category) who either a. buy their fashion sense, and well, so darl but thats not really how it works. they strut around like they own the place in all their city beach/roxy/billabong/everyone-owns-the-same-pair-of high-waisted shorts kinda clothes and quite frankly it bores me. and also doesn't show any hint of personality or individuality.
and then there's b. the kids who walk around in huge fluoro cotton on or similar jumpers , ugg boots, and some kind of short short or skinny jean. This is the group that also tend to wear flannelettes.
and if i really wanted to get picky i could talk about the kids who are just a hige walking sports label, lorna jane headband, nike top, puma track pants, converse socks, adidas shoes etc.


and then one day, someone different will come along. someone with modern and edgy, or classic and perfect style will come along, and it quite literally stops me in the street in amazement.
maybe i need to search the streets for these gems of inspiration.
or just sit around complaining about the lack of them

ciao!
