So I had the most vain, futile day I could possibly have. After four Gossip Girl episodes I had this sudden urge to go shopping. Six hours later I came home with a bunch of bags.

Whoever said money didn't buy happiness must have been having a really bad hair day.

[WARNING. This is a fashion-related rant.]

What is it with vests being 'in' this winter? I mean, I have seen a thousand girls in college wearing them. It's so weird to see accessories usually related to gay/bi/indie/alternative girls mixed with Valley-girlish Calvin Klein social pants. Today at the mall there were vests in the most random, traditional stores, and not on a male mannequin.

Don't get me wrong, you people know I'm all against a segregation between gay and straight people (or between gay people themselves), but I guess the cultural shock was just weird for me. I once read an article at a The L Word-related book that, amongst other things, said that lesbians were responsible for starting several fashion trends. I guess they had a point.

I am wearing a vest right now, by the way. It's probably the perfect way to end this day anyway.

And now off to drink dance the night away.
