Marilyn Monroe & Coca-Cola

 So i was thinking the other day.. a somewhat dangerous thing. & I was observing how the fashion today has changed so much, but not really at all. If you look at the t shirts today and the wear and design of the clothing that everyone is wearing, and then you push in The breakfast club to your VCR player and see the same clothes, with updated fabrics and more sheek cuts and seams. Or if you look at a picture of Marilyn Monroe, Katherine Hepburn & Cary Grant and try to compare them to Kim Kardashian, Angelina Jolie & Robert Pattinson, they can never compare. There is something about the past that people just cant let go of, and just cant seem to remake or reign above. Vintage clothing will sell for thousands now because vintage is what's in. Everybody wants to look like they did 15, 20 years ago. Its because they had something, that we in this day and age cant seem to grasp. They had originality. Marilyn Monroe, and Cary Grant are known because of the profession they were in, and the fact that they introduced something new to the movies, it might not have been the most positive thing, or well looked upon, but they were original. Coca- Cola will never be able to be remade or re-vamped, no matter what kind of flavor you add to it.Everyone around the world knows what a Coke is. Pepsi tried, and failed. I hate pepsi.
But they all did something that was new, fresh, original. Today we are constantly photocopying everything around us, we make skirts shorter, shirts tighter, makeup brighter and bolder, shoes higher and more expensive to try and make it newer, fresher and more original, but all they are doing is tucking a seamline here and there and throwing an animal print on telephone pole and calling it a high fashion shoe.
Im so dying for originality. & I was just thinking about it and how no matter what decade we are in, we always look to the past for inspiration and originality, because all we know is the past and so thats all we copy. Im sure Eve didnt plan that her birthday suit would be the inspiration for fashion today. Clothes have become over-rated, if i cant see a cheek, your wearing too much.
Anyway.. that was off topic and random:).. But my last question and/or observation would be this: No matter how much makeup we put on, or how much newer, younger and better makeup brands them come out with, i dont think anyone will ever have the beauty they did in the 40's through 60's. Its a fact, Katherine Hepburn wasn't known for her backside, but her seemingly flawless beauty. Now going nude is something im for!...When it comes to your face:) Natural is Knockout.
But im not even sure if this makes sense, but originality will always be strived for but never achieved, and no makeup is always classier than 7 tons of makeup. :)
