The American dream.
⠀
I used this picture from my long-time NY travel to talk about the new Bottega Veneta photoshoot with Kim Kardashian (if you see no logic here, that's because I'm incredibly alogical). It's essential because soon you'll see that jeans+white top combination everywhere, and it doesn't matter that fall is here; we live in the world where Los Angeles dictates new lows of fashion.
⠀
I don't like Kardashians, but I also don't hate them. Yes, they are white, rich, incredibly privileged people who ignore the real world's problems, but they represent a perfect example of The American dream. You can become the most influential person without talents only if you get your fking ass up and work.
⠀
We know that's not true, we know that hard work rarely pays off without a significant amount of luck and privilege, but we desperately want to believe.
⠀
Kim K doesn't live her American dream - she IS an American dream; she's a perfect representation of this country. Not educated? Who cares! It's not England, for God's sake; we are not here to spread our pompous speeches. Using very primitive American English, overwhelmed with words "awesome," "generally," and "really"? So, she's an ordinary girl, just like you. But a billionaire. She is an average American woman - not skinny, has four kids, a big family, religious, charming, devoted - but insanely rich.
⠀
America loves Kim and America deserves Kim to be its primal ambassador. So next time you think: "Why are those Kardashians so famous and rich?" think of them as representing a country they love so much. They are rich because we allow them to be rich and famous because we support every breath they take.
⠀
God Bless America and miss Kim - the perfect American woman.
