“I didn’t think you’ll be so into
feminism
since you’re like

super

into fashion!” my
Tinder
go out slurred in my opinion over the downtown area margaritas one night. She was basically passive-aggressively insulting myself all-night but this review forced me on top of the advantage. We thought a rage boil inside of my human body. A red mist made their means into my personal frame of sight. We clenched my fists when I felt the wonderfully snazzy devil of unabashed anger overtake the totality of my existence.

“the reason why is it possible you imagine

that

? Fashion happens to be boundary-breaking you foolish idiot. Would you have any idea which Vivianne Westwood is actually?” We hissed, battling straight back the compulsion to put my $14 agave margarita on her behalf along with her hideous merlot-colored sweater (fun).

She stared at me personally blankly. I took her silence as a cue to continue. We calmly deposit my personal drink and hopped to my personal proverbial soapbox.

“ladies operate the fashion business. Women are the most crucial people in fashion. Women can be the visionaries behind trend. Women can be the customers of fashion. Coco Chanel is actually a fashion/feminist icon. Therefore is Grace Jones. Josephine Baker. Madonna. Anna Wintour. Diane Von Furstenberg. Jenna F*cking Lyons. Are you aware of just who any of these men and women are, you merlot-sweater dressed in, unaware, unstylish arsehole?!” we screamed, my eyes feeling sore and dry from swallowing from my mind so extremely.

Of course, we went all of our individual ways and do not talked once again.

However, I defend my personal outburst. I am tired of individuals minimizing the
art of style
and drawing inane conclusions any particular one can not lust after beautiful garments and would like to smash the patriarchy. Indeed, that idea by yourself, is actually significantly rooted in misogyny. It comes from outdated white men wanting to trivialize the imagination and self-expression of females.

Having said that, if you should be internet dating a fashion-loving-feminist, or tend to be friends with a fashion-loving-feminist you wish to spoil,

or

in case you are a fashion-loving-feminist who wants to splurge on herself, look no further, kitten.

Also, bombers? We like bomber jackets; they can be the right option to border up any outfit.
