‘You only live once. So make sure you spend 15 hours on the internet everyday, desperately seeking validation from strangers.”
I came across a meme with the above tagline a few weeks ago and it suddenly made me realize of the digital bubble we are in. Guilty of wanting the ‘perfect’ grid to look back on, is a closet full of hidden insecurities, flaws and secrets.
Every morning, as I scroll swiftly through my Insta-feed, I come across the foodie, the couple that ‘grams together, the eternal vacationers, the selfie girl, the every day is #tbt kinda guy, the inspirational quoter or the insta-fasshionista – it’s like they weave in and out of lives (and feeds) constantly.
As a big-time sartorial lover and addict, I source for inspiration from magazines, Instafeeds, surroundings, runway shows, whatever it can be. However, with all that infographic to the eyes comes along with self-prejudice – a lot of it.
And constant thoughts like, “that’s nice but I can’t pull it off” or “it’s not meant for my body shape.”
Wow, very inspiring!
