Brand Conscious. Are you not?!

oh 'fess up all you women out there. Don't we all long for designer brands, shoes, bags, clothes, shades, bling bling and what have you nots. Tell you frankly, most of us (I am no exception.Honest.) are stuck in this vicious cycle of yearning for more, more, more and much MORE. And yes, the phrase "less is more' definitely doesnt apply here.

Sadly, we derive our satisfaction and happiness from our LV, Coach, Gucci and Chanel totes and Salvatore Ferragamo and Jimmy Choos. Do we really walk with more confidence with these superficial things? Do we really exude more confidence when we walk into a LV boutique carrying our latest LV bags? Since when a bag gives us the so-called confidence we need? Aint it an ironic and a sad sad fact. In an economist's words, "A rational human being craves for more good things than less." More is always good. Or is it really?

Oh, sometimes I wish I wasnt this materialistic and overtly pragmatic girl who longs for designer brands and splurge money on more expensive wants.

Life is definitely worth more than all the designer possessions we can get our hands on.
