“You Get Treated Nicer if You’re Well Dressed”

Yesterday The Nowness published a fantastic short film by Lina Piloplyte and blog photographer Ari Seth Cohen named after his street style site, “Advanced Style.” While yes it’s true, I social media networked the shit out of this video last night via Twitter and Facebook, it is perhaps one of the more inspiring things I’ve seen in my seemingly short day, celebrating a different generation of fashion. One that’s likely shaped the Man Repeller age I we eat, breathe, sleep today. So here right now, it wins one more home.

The film is choc full of heart warming quotes from the unfiltered, unapologetic, colorfully chic women and as it happens on a separate note, it seems like I’ve Zuckerberg’d* them: These ladies have been exercising their creative license and man repelling gene for decades.

In any case, peep the wildly entertaining dialogue and erection-inducing fashions in the video below.

“You don’t want to look crazy. The object is to look as chic as you can.”

“Young women, you’re going to be old women one day. Don’t worry about it. Don’t sweat it. Don’t worry about getting older. Every era, it builds character.” 

*Zuckerberg’d: Verb. 1. To steal one’s concept or idea and harvest it as your own.

…If this doesn’t get you excited to hit menopause, I don’t know what will.
