Alright, so...

I don't know if it's just me, but I feel like I keep seeing the same girl everywhere, different people, but dressed as the same person.

They have the same hair, the same jeans, the same effortless outfit.

And we've all agreed that this is what looks good right now.

And it actually does look really good.

And that's kind of the point.

And it's not a bad thing.

None of this is a bad thing.

like style and more like it's just a uniform.

And in doing so, are we copying fashion or are we searching for an identity?

Are we actually copying clothes or are we copying an archetype?

The illusion of individual style is pulling from the same Pinterest board.

And the interesting thing is that this doesn't just happen with fashion.

It happens with movies.

It happens with music.

It that becomes the dominant taste.

And it's like suddenly everyone starts aligning with it without even realizing.

But with fashion, it's much more personal because it's not just what you like, it's who you become.

And it makes so much sense because following the dominant style promises you something.

It promises you that if you look like this, you'll Be more confident.

You'll feel more comfortable.

you'll be more desirable and more certain of yourself.

Another element of this is the illusion of wealth, the stealth wealth, mob wife, quiet luxury.

These Aesthetics have been really popular lately,

because they allow us to live within the illusion with neutral tones and minimalist clothing.

And I do think the algorithm plays a big role here as well.

We're force fed a mirror of our own desires over and over and over again, and it seems to follow us from platform to platform.

But I don't think it's the main reason, and here's why: the algorithm isn't creating desire.

it's amplifying your own and what is it that we want exactly

We want a version of ourselves that does the right thing, that makes the right choices, that doesn't make any mistakes.

And instead of building that from scratch, we borrow it.

And after a while, you don't even realize that you're participating in it because it starts to feel like it is you.

But it's not.

It's just...

Really familiar.

Let's talk about the muses Carolyn Bissette Kennedy.

She's been

very popular lately and a lot of people are very inspired by her style maybe overly inspired

and kind of taking it a bit too far Carolyn represents minimalism,

control, mystery, and no overexposure.

Carolyn's style is everywhere right now.

And it's not just Pinterest and TikTok.

It's fashion itself.

Articles, runway references, styling guides.

They're trying to understand her.

They're trying to recreate her.

And I get it because...

There's something about her that feels very different from what we're used to seeing nowadays.

She wasn't dressing for content.

She wasn't dressing to be perceived a certain way.

There's no sense of performance.

and no obvious effort to be iconic.

And that right there is actually what made her iconic.

She repeated things.

She wore the same silhouettes, the same tones, and the same pieces.

And it didn't feel boring.

The way people are imagining her nowadays is completely different from the way she actually existed in real life.

We're not studying her, we're studying her outfits, breaking them down into pieces, and turning them into formulas.

Black coat, white shirt, straight leg Levi's,

sunglasses, She's no longer a person, she's a template.

Fashion itself is trying to move away from sameness right now with more texture and personality, but we're still consuming it through a system that's built to flatten everything.

And now those platforms don't just show you what you like, they're going to sell it to you and instantly.

So the cycle becomes See it, I want it, buy it, repeat.

So when we look at Carolyn, we're not actually engaging with what made her amuse.

We're extracting the visual parts and trying to apply them.

You can copy what somebody wore, but you can't copy why they wore it.

And I think that's why someone like Carolyn feels so powerful right now.

Because she represents something that feels almost impossible to replicate.

Privacy, consistency, restraint, and a real point of view.

style is gone.

I just think it's much harder to reach because everything around us is designed to make it easier not to.

Jane Birkin was undone, sensual, artistic, feels almost accidental.

Bella Hadid and Sophia Richie Grange.

Now it's faster and more manufactured.

but still the same system even for myself i catch myself putting on an outfit

and thinking to myself do i really like this

or is this just something that i've seen over and over

and it starts to feel like it's me every era has its it girl icon muse

or that girl and whether or not we realize it we start to orbit her

and we do this because because having this clear aesthetic to follow It tells you exactly what what to wear,

how you'll feel and...

More importantly, I guess, how you'll be perceived.

How to present yourself.

It's a more simple way of gaining a fashion identity.

And I think that's why everyone looks the same right now.

I really don't think it's because people aren't creative.

I think they're all searching for the same feeling.

I wonder what it's like to be her.

Maybe if I dress like this, then my problems will go away.

We're told to be individuals, but everything we're shown is the same version of individuality.

You're allowed to stand out, but not too much.

It's more like a curated version of being unique, like pre -approved expression.

People used to build wardrobes slowly.

They used to wear things into the ground.

They used to patch their clothing, get it altered.

They really made pieces their own.

And now everything just feels a lot more instant.

And I really think you can feel that because something is missing.

We're missing the soul in the clothing.

100

There's no friction anymore.

101

no mistakes, no experimentation, and those are the elements that create style.

102

We've replaced developing taste with selecting an aesthetic.

103

But taste really takes expression, trying things that don't work, a bunch of outfits that probably just you'll look back on and be like,

104

oh my god, what was I wearing?

105

Those are all things that you kind of need to go through to figure out what it is that you really like.

106

And to find your style, your unique style, is by playing with your pieces,

107

trying on different things, just having fun with clothing and with I don't think that everyone actually wants to look the same.

108

I just think that it's easier to select that style and to live within those boundaries.

109

Easier to follow something that already works.

110

And honestly, I really do get that.

111

But I think that's where people start to feel disconnected with themselves.

112

And I don't think it's about blaming anyone or making fun of anyone or shaming anyone.

113

And we're all in it.

114

too but I do think it's worth noticing

115

and once you see it you can't really unsee it you'll start to ask yourself What do I really like?

116

Not what works, but what really feels like me.

117

I think the people who stand out, the ones that feel really unique and different, they aren't necessarily trying harder,

118

but they're not pulling from the same place.

119

And that's what I want to get into next because we refer to those people as something really specific, even if you're not aware of it.

O que é a Técnica de Shadowing?

Shadowing é uma técnica de aprendizado de idiomas com base científica, originalmente desenvolvida para o treinamento de intérpretes profissionais. O método é simples, mas poderoso: você ouve áudio em inglês nativo e repete imediatamente em voz alta — como uma sombra seguindo o falante com 1-2 segundos de atraso. Pesquisas mostram melhora significativa na precisão da pronúncia, entonação, ritmo, sons conectados, compreensão auditiva e fluência na fala.
