Fashion is postmodern.

Hey this is Bella and as you may know, this is our new blog and our blog isnt just a fashion blog, but a blog about the joys and tribulations of our teenage lives.

I took this really cool Contemporary Fiction class last semester that explored postmodernism in our society. One of the tenets of postmodernism is the idea that everything's been done before and there's nothing new. We talked about fashion and how certain styles are constantly recycled and brought back in the future.For example, like the high-waisted skirt or the shoulder pads that are creeping into fashion magazines. So it's just really cool to see how pervasive postmodernism is, even in fashion.

To leave you off thinking about postmodernism...
I wrote this little snippet for the class

Dear Diary,
The sun is shining. The birds are chirping. The clouds are moving. The house is rotting. The ice cream truck is blaring. The neighbors are yelling. The Boys are spying. The grass is growing. The bees are gathering. People are driving. Babies are crying. Old woman are crossing. Fruit is falling. Workers are picking. Students are studying.Teachers are grading. Toddlers are walking. Celebrities are shopping. Directors are directing. Writers are writing. Singers are singing. Consumers are buying. Marketers are calling. My mom is cooking. My dad is teaching. Lux is talking. Bonnie is showering. Mary is twirling. Therese is eating. I am falling. I am dying.
