“Advertisers regularly con us into believing that we genuinely need one luxury after another. We are convinced that we must keep up with or even go one better than our neighbors. So we buy another dress, sports jacket or sports car and thereby force up the standard of living. The ever more affluent standard of living is the god of twentieth century North America and the adman is its prophet.” NeedsBelieveAmericaForceSportsCenturyCarStandardsDressesConvincedNeighborLuxuryProphetConsumerismTwentieth CenturyJacketsOverconsumptionNorth AmericaStandards Of LivingAffluentAdvertisersSports Cars Book:Rich Christians in an age of hunger: a Biblical study Source: Rich Christians in an age of hunger: a Biblical study
“I haven't made many wedding dresses. It's a dress very, very important for the girl; it's important to know the person, I believe, but at the same time it should be a shock to the person - the person should be shocked to be suddenly revealed.

“I think that the way to have style is to accept where your body is right now, heavier or skinnier, whether you're going to change in the future and dress it as it is.

But I don't believe that it's impossible to dress with style.” PeopleThinkingWayBelieveMayFactsBodyAcceptingImpossibleStyleRight NowClothesHarderDressesDon't BelieveYour BodyPlus Author:Stacy London
