couldn´t make up a good title.

i´ve always been a pro-sharing person (i don´t know if that word even exist but i kinda like it :), so i have to tell that i´m glad people finally have noticed how important is not to spend a lot of money in buying stuff they aren´t going to use but once, so i think petite elöise had a point, but let´s be honest, c´mon people, 360 dlls to RENT a necklace?? 120 dlls the earrings?? really?? wow omg how much we are saving, this is awesome!! …bullshit. 

I´m not going to spend 480 dlls on my jewelry, not even for my wedding, i mean, do you have any idea on how many things you can buy with that money? OK i know you´re not millonaire but may be you can pay something for the party or the ceremony, i don´t know, ANYTHING! i think this is a great start, sharing and not buying, but half of the population can´t afford those prices, and that´s for sure. So where´s the help? where´s the recession? 

Certainly i´m not going to use that service, but i have to accept it´s a good idea, not available for everyone (and that´s a little ironic, because it´s supposed to be available… whatever) but at the end, a good idea. 

What about sharing the car? that´s a good idea and available, less gas, less stress, less polution, les traffic, more chating, more smiles :) but i wonder why people don´t do that, why everybody is in love with the idea of having a car just for one single person, and how about the hummer´s customers, are they out of their minds? that´s not a vehicle that´s a monster, and let me ask you, do you really need such a car in a city?

And i have more questions too…
Do you really need Abercrombie?
Do you really need a Starbuck´s?
Do you really need a pair of Pumas?
Do you really need Burberry?

mmm… no.

I´m not telling i am the exception and i don´t wear and buy brands, but really, how much do we need them, and how much do we spend on them. I know i´m talking to myself cause nobody si going to change with this post, but i think what we honestly need, aren´t brands but a new way of thinking, stop thinking only about ourselves and how others are going to look us or what they´re going to think about us.

Start thinking of what´s the best for you and your planet, start sharing, stop being a non sense consumer.


Hasta la vista, Pine Apple.
