They Took Your Style, Now They Want Your Soul
Monday, August 6th, 2007Remember that sack of shirts you bought for a dollar at your neighbor’s yard sale? Well, by Urban Outfitters’ calculations, you underpaid by hundreds.
Now the company that made looking cheap expensive is doing the same thing they do with faded jeans to visual art.
That’s right. Urban Outfitters is selling Lomo cameras (better quality ones are available for less on ebay).
But not only can you buy one of these funky, cheap and cool cameras, you can take a bunch of photos of yourself being a hipster and use it to win another one.
I think Lomo photography and vintage clothes are really cool. If you want to get into either, try Goodwill and yard sales. Unless you’d rather be faux-Lomo and pseudo-retro.
