Knowing yourself is the beginning of all wisdom.

Whether it’s Paris Hilton or Kim Kardashian or whoever, stupidity is certainly celebrated. Being … [an] idiot is a valuable commodity in this culture because you’re rewarded significantly.

You’re not attractive because you look like the airbrushed neo-Barbie posing with a giant bottle in a vodka ad, or the limitlessly fancy red carpet starlet. You’re attractive because of how you tell a story, how your eyes crinkle when you smile, how you love a certain author so fervently, and any number of other trite rom-com clichés. Because there’s actually truth to those sappy monologues – the most attractive thing about anyone is what makes them unique, not what makes them blend in.

I understand why models have to be a homogenous size, but I wish that women around the fashion industry would be less conforming to that homogenous body type. For me, fashion is dressing in a way that compliments you, expresses your personality and makes you feel good. I meet a lot of people who are disappointed because of the gap that exists between how they feel and what fashion dictates they should look like. To me, that’s the opposite of style.
