I'm a simple emigrant and I have my own simple style

As I already told you, in Germany unnecessary things are often resold for pennies or donated to charity. The idea is great, but sometimes you walk down the street and notice that local homeless people strut around in Nikes, fashionable clothes and with Louis Vuitton bags. It’s hard to tell right away: a homeless person, an influencer, or a Balenciaga creative? And I also remember how funny it was that Avito sold bags from Moscow’s TSUM, and it’s even funnier. So I have a T-shirt. A good T-shirt, but nothing remarkable. I don’t particularly like how it fits me in photos, but it’s very comfortable. Therefore every time I wear it, I think, well, not my best outfit, but comfortable. Recently I stood on the street, watching a woman rummaging in a trash can. An ordinary situation, but something in my head didn’t add up. And then it hits me that she was wearing that very T-shirt! Good thing I was wearing different clothes. Otherwise it would be very funny. You know, those situations where fashionistas quarrel because they came to a party in identical outfits? And me, why bother with trifles, I take it up a notch, showing my protest to society, so to speak 😅 Anyway, I comforted myself with the thought that it suits me better, though the aftertaste remained. But my friend was simply happy, because he always hated this T-shirt and now he has a reason to pour oil on the fire, saying, “well, now you’ll stop wearing it?!”. And I have a dilemma: to forget about it and keep the T-shirt or send it on a journey of secondary use, maybe it will land with the same woman. And I wouldn’t want to accidentally blend in with the homeless on some street-style shoot. 😁 Would you wear it? #curiosities Photo from an exhibition about consumer society
