Through the eyes of aesthetic!


And so finally i have decided to join the trend with a blog of my own. Perhaps, the more likely use of words should be convinced. As i try to work this out, it is fascinating to learn how closely related fashion is to technology. Is it right to assume they are one and the same thing? Afterall, it is so called uncool to be seen without our little gadgets of desire....the ultra slim ipod, the sexy imac, the classic Burkin, the ade Bakare creation? All allude to one and the same thing, the need to accessorize....to provide aesthetic value.
It is true that aesthetics are a natural attempt to compensate for something thought to be missing, but so what about it? Aesthetics contribute greatly to how the story is told. The outfit is not compelete without the right accessories as a laptop works better with a set of killer sub woofers (so i have been told).
I am no technophobe but technological innovations like the internet, compueters and mobile phones are my limit. At this, i mean i only attempt to use them at the basic levels. Now fashion is my forte and this, it seems is where both meet for me. My website, my blog, myspace and all these new discoveries (for me) present untold aesthetic possibilities as i discover them. Who says aesthetics don't count for much? Certainly not me!
