What is cool?!

Cool- Cool is an additude, personality, appearance, object, or almost anything, that a person, group, or culture, finds appealing. There really is no set definition as opinions of cool vary by person, group, culture, and times.

  • Certain types of clothing in different cultures are seen as "cool". For example, in lots of groups, skaters shoes are popular for teens to wear. Many teens wear DC shoes because they are found as appealing and they think that wearing them, may make them seem "cooler".


  • Certain people that are well known, such as famous actors or musicians, are seen as role models and defined as "cool". Jimi Hendrix, for example, is seen as one of the most amazing guitarists who ever lived. Most people would define him as a very "cool" person. They see him as a role model and they look up to him.

Branded Me

I am wearing:

  • Lululemon- YOGA - active people.
The website has links to both mens and womens clothing. On the main page it has pictures of people doing different activites. Mostly yoga. On the mens and womens links it has pictures and information on their clothing line and other products.


  • Abercrombie & Fitch- Casual expensive citywear - Rich Snobs
This webpage has online shopping and pictures of great looking models. It's very enjoyable to look at. ;) It is mostly geared to teens and young adults but everything is expensive, so they either must have lots of money, or they sold their house to buy a sweater.


  • Hollister- Beachy, surfing - teens and surfers
Hollister is just like abercrombie & fitch but it is less expensive and slightly more beachy and surfy. The webpage has online shopping and pictures.






shout out to my wonderful boyfriend BIG BEN. I LOVE YOU BABE.
