Everyone in the world belongs to a tribe, a socioeconomic class, a frat that decides the way we look and act.  There’s nothing wrong with this.  We normally associate ourselves with people who are like us, so looking and acting like our friends is not because they are our friends, they are our friends because they look and act like us.  May not always be the case, and many of you may disagree with me, but let’s just get past this.  Regardless of the reason,  many of us are lost in a see of peers who are indistinguishable (especially in dress) from us.  So how do we fight the mundane without losing who we are or compromising our personal tastes in dress?  It’s a great question and I don’t know if I have a great answer.

In the southeast, every guy everywhere wears polo shirts with khakis or jeans and they all have just about the same haircut.  Everyone, but especially frat guys.  How do they differentiate themselves from others?  Well, some of them go the outdoorsy way and sport technical jackets and backpacks.  Some try to get super classy by wearing very expensive things and looking very refined, but even these groups are large and honesty not that different.  That’s just one example of the rampant homogeneous style in the country.

I wear all kinds of things and so my general look changes from day-to-day.  I don’t do this so that I look different from other people, but it just sort of happened that way.  That’s the only answer I have for trying to be different…never looking the same.  I really don’t know.  I don’t even know if this is even a problem.  What do you guys think?
