White Wayfarers Are Over. So Please, Please Stop Wearing Them
Chloe Sevigny Circa 2004
I am having real difficulty with this one. Why are all you hipsters out there still rocking this look? White Wayfarers were first worn by Chloe Sevigny in 2004, more than 4 years ago. The look was forward back then, but it’s been along time since 04 when the glasses we’re hip. Now they are not. They are far from cool.
Remember indies, something is only cool as long as you can’t pick them up at Urban Outfitters for $20 bucks. You see when that happens, instantaneously the look becomes available across the country, leading to kids from Montana rocking the look as they head home to watch Napoleon Dynamite for the hundredth time. So please, please, please stop rocking white wayfarers. They make you look like a sad dejected Chloe freak and no one should have to look like that.

ewww… “indies” really? whenever a music genre becomes a noun for people who listen to it it undermines the credibility of the artists. and by the way it’s “wayfarers”.
Reply to mis shapethanks misshape for the spellcheck.
indie hasn’t been a proper music genre since the 90’s. It’s now all neo-punk, rave-rock, synth-electric, brit-pop-funk, or any other randomness to make it seem different and distinct, when really it’s mostly just rehashed 80’s club hits.
plus, it was a term to describe films before music.
for us an indie is just someone who shy’s away from the mainstream. a person who would rather be associated with fresh music, art, and fashion rather than big box goodness.
English is an evolving language. Change with the times are get stuck in the past, misshape.
