Brand-name labels in their wardrobes are what a lot of women dream about. Most brand's labels are becoming more and more common in society, and more affordable to the common fashionable woman. In the fashion industry, these brand-names are a must. They show luxury, wealth, and power. It gives many women and men a pathway to style and high reputation.
However, sometimes I wonder how labels are used in other parts of our lives. What about when we label other people? This happens mostly during school, but it can happen anywhere at anytime. Having a label is what others think of us and how we are seen. Labels on people can go from beautiful to ugly, jock to nerd, nice to bitchy, and even talented to worthless. While it's true that labels in fashion are wonderful, labels given to other people aren't as wanted. The sad thing is, even though we are the designers of our own lives, others are the ones who put the labels on us. It's difficult nowadays to have others see us the way we want them to.
I believe that people have the freedom to give each other labels. If this person is mean and bitchy, we shouldn't take that as everything they can be as a person. It's true, humans can be hateful, and sometimes we do use our own insecurities as fuel to hurt other people, but we can't use that as an excuse to damage another person's self esteem.
Anyway, we should always love each other and stay true to ourselves. No matter what labels are held against us, we should remember that there is beauty in everything and everyone, and this inner, and infinite, beauty is the only thing that is truly priceless.
