Whatever happened to originality?

True or false: there are too many solid-colored garments in this world.


I say true. When it comes to clothes, there's very little more boring than a life without pattern. Last night I found myself shopping with my boyfriend in a little store that was filled with nothing but entirely blue tshirts, entirely yellow sweaters, and entirely red tank tops - etc. Not to mention that everything was 100% cotton. Clearly this was a recipe for distinct lack of fashion inspiration. It's far more satisfying to shop at stores that eschew "basics" and instead offer clothes that will make you feel fabulous (yes, it's one or the other. Basics are never fabulous, as practical and "useful" as they may be).

/End rant.
