Fashion Philosophy
A Barney’s ad that hit my inbox today reminded me of a project that I did in college for Philosophy 101.
After a week-long battle of logic between myself and Mr. Philosophy Prof. over the rights of the unborn, I had no emotional energy left to make an ethical debate with my next assignment. Here’s what I did instead:
1. Black and brown do not match.
2. Grey is black mixed with white.
3. Khaki is brown mixed with white.
4. Therefore: grey and khaki do not match.
It took me a matter of seconds to prove my fashion philosophy. I got an “A;” although, Mr. Prof. told me that he expected more and was excited to hear what I had to say … until I brought fashion into it. Oh well, an “A” is an “A” … and hopefully the boy in the back row wearing a grey tee with khakis learned something.
