i know that fashion is a matter of personal choice,but one style i can't really understand is the craze

for wearing jeans that are completely ripped and torn at the knees,this style has been around for

years even before punk so its not exactly new,i just can't get my head around why someone would

actually pay a ridiculous amount of money for an item of clothing that is ripped to shreds.

I couldn't understand it years ago...and don't get it now. If you want ripped jeans you can just wait until the pair you have wears out or do it yourself. It made no sense then and doesn't now.

somebody needs to pay for it.

Just like those cars that park themselves.

that's hard work, parkin'cars.

somebody needs to pay for it.

it's actually "The Club".

But, i never go to clubs.

My daughter spent GOOD money at American Eagle (using her Christmas money) to buy ripped jeans that I refused to buy her myself.

They're not small rips, they're more like large tears that span across the legs.

I love my ripped jeans.

It's ridiculous and I didn't pay much for it, but I do love them.

Got them 2nd hand, so I got an excuse?!?!

I've never gotten the whole torn jeans thing either. I know the thinking behind it, how it's supposed to be a turn-on to see bare skin, but it doesn't do anything for me.

Buying brand new faded jeans I get though, I own several pair myself.

I don't want to come across as "bougie" (as Paintedlady would say)...BUT...I can't bring myself to buy second-hand clothes. Not to say that I haven't in the past (my old boss gave me one of his custom-tailored suits which at the time fit me like a glove) but when I see clothes at a thrift store I think to myself; "what if someone died in that shirt?".

I only have a few second-hand clothes, maybe five, and they were given to me by people that I like a t-shirt from an old friend, a coat from someone who gave me the coat before he passed away, and a t-shirt I traded with someone, and maybe one or two second-hand t-shirts from the thrift store....other than that, I feel a bit uncomfortable wearing things that other people used to wear, and very often second-hand clothes are shaped by their previous owners, and it takes a long time to change that shape again.

I used to know this very smart doctor who seriously believed in something he called an aura. He believed that second-hand clothes still carry the aura of the previous owner and that that could sometimes lead to problems. I don´t know what to think of that. I was surprised to hear a man of science talk about people´s aura attaching to clothes.

But who knows, maybe he knows something that I don´t. He got his education in the USSR, by the way.

loves 2nd hand stuff, shops at goodwill tons .. finding great things is so cool

I love secondhand shops. Sometimes you see stuff in there you may never see again (or want to),

That's actually very interesting.

Are you aware of Russian "healers" who have been scanned with sensors (or something) which shows that their hand emit some sort of energy???

Interesting..........I'll have to take him at his word on that.

Yes, I´ve seen pictures of it but don´t really know what to think of it.
