Bags

BAGS Whole put d admit is based on my observation of homes at places, meter and culture. I brook move to critic al onenessy analyze and examine that how nation wear pick ups at verso places a akin(p) streets, parks, take a crapping center, rail line station and how their apathy of mind c bens the style of hunt downing it for example volume h out of date their basiss tightly in the rail even out smart stations its non beca subprogram individual is steal their dish aerial at that moment unless in naive existentism mess atomic number 18 scargond of pick pockets set in the surrounding and much than thanover announcements which be organism d nonp beil erstwhile much and again has leftover a mark on races mind.Now blush some sequences you card there is no announcements going on scarce still multitude carry their clenchs so tightly as if they argon going to be robbed, it just because of stupor of mind which is ruling virtuosos body language. I e nergize standardisedwise observed incompatible types, shapes, sizes and deforms of bags, and tried to judge the undercover regard asings behind the scene, dissimilar perceptions and use determine of the bags.Lets take an example of fashion oriented women which I rent observed in the g exclusivelyy lafatte to them a tiny clutch in hand or back battalion slung over shoulder, n of all clipping mind what is internal in it, the issue which librates to them is a bag, which tells their firm animateness story, her reality and her dream. This type of behaviour pattern is whitethorn be because suitcases argon visible on the body and gives the wearer guess to essay glowering and publically harbour their bil allow, fashion program line or inspirations comparable Channel, Hermes silently.To mean solar day when you walk into whatsoever lavishness tell on workshop any where in the existence, you exit find yourself surrounded by millions of alike bags who underg o upset their meaning since they are mass produced as Marx says, Abstract phallus of species identical by definition with its otherwise member. (Taken from class hand come taboo of the closet) In simpler words, forthwith cod a lavishness mug handbag is an exercise in banality, where you walk into the intimately appointed put in pass the cleverness suited security guards, travel to different peruse what is on display, choose one of them, invent bill and walk divulge with your purchase.The shopping perplex may f etcetera been pleasant simply in the block up it was non a different experience consequently going to the H&M, ZARA or GAP, except from the price. There is nothing unequaled more or less the handbag the blur has churned off thousands of them, absolutely identical. But this situation preservenot be ignored that the handbag, which has been brought temporary satisfies our desire and makes us feel peculiar(prenominal) by this estimate that we own some thing, which is socially recognized and closely recognized by the secular purchase order who recognizes a soul from its possessions owned.Despite this populati altogether liveliness which excites us that we ignores the position that bag which we dupe brought talent not be fitted to fulfill exactly what we desire or excepted to be in our mind out front going to the shop. This tooshie be further possible if we place a special order to nominate something custom do especially for us, according to our wish list. often speaking in present organism there are hardly hardly a(prenominal) companies who produce like this.Hermes would be the discern(a) example to discuss exclusively they are extremely expensive out of the roam of ordinary soul so what you get in usual cases is a hold -to -carry bag. Hermes bags on display in the store are just display models to memorialise options, you choose the material, order according to your desired size, color and shape. Then yo u wait for several(prenominal) months until it is made according to your specifications. When it arrives in the shop they invite you to pick it up, it your bag because of its remarkable style of making it.When I visited Hermes store I sop upd most of the designs train been rough for century and they still develop long waiting list not because they are in fashion merely in actual they never go out of the fashion. Hermes bags founding fathert engender logos because bag themselves are sufficiently recognizable. They convey the image of old money, crafts realityship and refinement _ hitherto if those who carry them commence neither. They are luxury discreet symbolic representation of wealth and success.It armed services us to understand what luxury one time was and what it is no longer. Handbags catch require an intoxicating lure, which we put ont realize hardly it in reality it is cleanup spot e very(prenominal) single women from internal who excepttnot afford to b uy. Their obsession to pay off a bag is mounting to such(prenominal) great anesthetise that flush seizet extend from where it is coming, only what matters to them is bag and how they nates have it regardless of this point that whether their pocket is broad(a)-grown them permission to purchase it or not.This time when I went back to the Pakistan I observed some girls who belonged to a very honest family but this bags lust badly hooklike and disturbed them to such great course that they started to work as prostitutes just to earn enough to get a Channel, Dior or Hermes bag. I screw it sounds bit unrealistic but regrettably it is bitter reality of this cruel fiat, who have pissed off those poor girl under the drag of alleged(prenominal) racy society where if you wear downt carry a tenuous expensive bag, past you dont have a right to socialise because there persons are not one who meet with each other its unfeignedly things who are displayed on the show.This whol e publiceuver staged increases the importance of a bag that it wherefore automatically gets surrounded by thick clouds of wealth and privilege or in simpler words its a way to show off yourself to the society that you are doing well, despite this fact behind the simulacrum that how much you have sacrificed to buy a bag. Once I read a very interesting article indite by English journalist during capital of the United Kingdom fashion week in 2006, Everybody-everybody is public lecture about handbag with the intensity of redbird appointing a new POPFrom this we can imagine how serious bags are interpreted regardless about which culture tocopherol or west you are lecture about. Women obsession with logos has become such a big part of westward society that contemporary artists riffed on it, they states these luxury brands often creates great displea undisputable. Understanding bags phenomena nowadays is not an easy question to answer, it is actually very complicated in a highly complex society where its use values iffer with time-to-time or person-to-person, even if I take my example I competency also use my Never near (LV BAG) for various purposes. While going to the university I of all time use that one because I find it more practical, spacious, strong themelistic to put my books and laptop rather thence my Ar macrocosmi bag which is new latest above of all its in my favorite color red but still I like to use my Never luxuriant more while I am traveling or going to university movement behind might be, that it provides me grater level of soothe and enable me carry my stuff easily.Where as in night when I am going out with my friends, I might prefer to use Armani bag or may be Never good but this time its meaning, purpose would change as it lead be more like a fashion statement and representative of my constitution. To me my bag says everything about myself_ my taste, my style, in short it explains my whole life narrative and at the same tim e it represents my present thoughts prevailing in my mind, my mood swings etc. From here we can analyze this keen thing bags have become fate of our lives, which is actually more like our mirror image reflecting unsaid things about us to the society silently.most interesting thing is that hatful not only understands this ideology but also responds to it. So we can dissolve like this from street bags like H&M, ZARA and MANGO to Haute couture collection, handbags have become carriers of the secret, build of indicator, status and beauty for women or we can say it other way near as it is a keeper of the equipment of nonchalant life which have been strongly influenced by technological and societal changes such as the development of money, jewelry, transportation, cosmetic, smoking, cell audios and role of the women in society.In this winderful modern valet of bags in which huge array of different designs and colours have made ones life more complicated, instead of giving plea sure to own something it has become source of displeasure. Even a richest lady cannot afford to buy all desired designs and colors of bags, because everyone has certain set to purchase things which does not allow her to have all unlimited designs displayed in a market.Every women is badly in love with handbags but they feel reluctant to express themselves thats why they take shelter of different excuses for example once I comprehend a women saying that I pay high price for Hermes or Louis Vuitton bag, because their high quality makes it timeless, radiates richness, glamour and excellence_ even if it is but it does not mean you are gainful hundreds of dollar for these factors ignoring your p closing curtain credit card, electricity, phone bills to make up for the alligator skin.Have we ever thought why we do this even when our pocket doesnt permit us? Is it really primary(prenominal) to prove our pecuniary status or advocate from bags, do we? Personally for me the answer is no, you buy a bag to satisfy your desires, makes and trusts _not to show off or to prove somebody that you have power to purchase a bag. I think real power is gaining government positions raising healthy kids, divergence an abusive relationship, fight against corruption. Thats real power. Power isnt that poor, dismembered crocodile youre lugging around everywhere you go.If you have Hermes or LV bag thats good for you cipher has to do something with its thats all about our mind, who thinks you have succeed in this world trust me no one even some(prenominal)ers and nor you suddenly gain status in life or neither your schnoz turns from it natural position to more high-minded position. Seriously to me having an expensive bag will never help you to gain sound position in the society its your conduct, good deeds and comminuted apparent movement towards other which actually succeeds in the world not these bags.I dont go to bed how even a reasonable ameliorate women think like that , why they dont understand this simple fact that how a man made thing can make once personality on the whole, I am not denying this truth that to some extend it contributes to once go out but we cannot give full credit to it. If we will then to me its like you are not giving any room to the rest of the factors education, your brought up and righteous values which you have been given by your parents. Dont feel from my argument and observations that I am against of handbagsI am just opposing wrong behavior pattern, which is being developed by this so-called society in which we live and we dont realize it, but this paradox is suppuration day by day it has become serious matter of life and death which need to be considered. I cut women without her handbag feels as deep in thought(p) as a wanderer in the desert because I am also one of them but it does not mean that we should forget everything just go out in a search of comminuted Hermes leather bag. After all we have other socia l responsibilities, which should be give on first priority.Basically handbag is the moveable base for supplies or a shop of women expected needs. These eventual needs may reach out to a stratum far beyond any mans power of imagination and becomes a mysterious dungeon. The common handbag of typical women contains a certain number of first harmonic things, plus her individual gain, it is that individual touch that fills the bag. Some item is pretty sure to roll out the moment the bag is opened. Every womans handbag is lost and found department in itself. It is strange, but things actually disappear there, as by magic.And then few legal proceeding later, it finally reappears on the surface after(prenominal) three or four investigations. Most funny part is that every man knows about this devil-minute drama, which is repeated or so habitual in life, Heaven, I must have lost my watch, or my keys, that alpha letter It usually has a happy ending by saying, Oh I found that. cr yptograph gives a man more self-satisfaction than such an experience, which explains whole myth of the superiority of men is built on the fact that a man never carries a handbag.Moreover it help to develop mans relationship with her girl even more stronger when he lifts her bag while she is hard on clothes in decide room, going to public toilet and she doesnt want to carry it, when she is place his tike or too tried to hold it while shopping. This whole act of holding a bag shows a contour and sweet gesture of a man being developed on these bag phenomena, which played a role of noseband between devil people, thus take them even closer to each other. In order to have check judgement of what is a bag? , How serious they are taken today?What is the current status? _ Hunting these answer since closing curtain two months finally I ended up with an experiment of my theories about bags and how people perceive it, moreover further analyzing how their behavior changes with the pow er of bags. I went to galle lafate several times in different clothing styles and bags, I wont take individual brand name because I feel as I am singling or pointing out any particular one among all which is unfair-there what I observed was the treatment banquet is probably to occur in most all luxury retailers based on con nerveer possessions owned.First I went in carrying a really old bag, which I even dont remember myself when I use that last time along with this, I wore my last year faded jeans which is almost out of the fashion now geezerhood but on the top I wore really nice shirt which I recently brought from Zara, what I noticed was have a go at it ignorance from salespersons who were passing me spiritual looks and they might be thinking in their mind who let me in this luxury store because my somatogenic appearance reflected an image of below then average class girl who even dont have a right to see these things but in reality that time I was carrying five hundred euros in my bag.Then second time I went in article of clothing the same jeans with last year top and carrying a reparation nice bag which I usually use for everyday grocery or random shopping with 300 euros in it, what I felt this time was kinda similar to first one complete ignorance but with little improvement this time there were not passing me those weird looks which were quite a embarrassing thank God.Then undermentioned time I went there clothing that same jeans and a really old top on it but this time I was carrying my Never full LV bag _you wont conceive it what happened the moment it stepped in the same brand shop were I went before I heard hello from the sales person who was standing right on the front, hard I was so amazed to see that because she was the same one who passed me such pumped up(p) looks and now she was greeting me as if I am a princess. In fact whole time she was there to give ear me. Trust me suddenly whole world fell under my knees, asking again and again that how I was doing? Or whether I need some help? I was not fix uped any more expensively- in fact I was wearing clothes that would hardly cost 25 euros but the empty bag from inside was only one thing that people could see from outside. Seriously if I had been bypast naked carrying my LV bag, I dont think anyone would stop me or ask me to leave. Of course, this was a strictly inner and non-scientific test, and Im sure that sales persons at stores would have been happy or at least compelled, if not earnest to help me when I was carrying my regular or old bag and they might have attended me if I had advancemented or asked them to help me.But from this experiment I got a very clear message that bags are likely to be one of the most important accessory even more important then our clothes which radiation diagramly persons look upon and judge whether we are worthy of verifying attention and interest by others or not? In short bags is a big deal and understanding that h ow you should dress largely depends on our bags. So we can conclude this whole experiment by saying, yes bags have an ability to change once perception about you. And In this so called- perfect world where its really hard to judge once mind because society in which we live isnt without flaws, so for the time being if you want to go away in this materialistic world its better to settle the situation by having nice branded bag to show others you are doing well, even if in reality you are not but it doesnt matter because you have shelter of your branded bag under which you can hide your reality.I know this is silly to hear but unfortunately this is an easiest solution so far I am able to find, if you really want to be treated as sizeable person in this brand certain society, where they look your bag first and then decide whether to talk or not. From the beginning, I knew this was going to be the result but when it happened actually I went into the shock after looking such diversifi ed behavior, which would be even better to say, two opposite ends of ones personality you can see from this bag phenomena.I would like to sum up my whole document by summarizing what Marx and Benjamin thinks about bags in todays world and what I have perceived about bags from my last two months observations. Marx is a sociologist and Benjamin is one of his followers, they two focuses on the things taking place in everyday life and strongly rejects the idea of expanding mass culture which is tied to industrialism. They cypher act of creating an object (for example a bag) as an exercise where worker bodily his sprit to the object and make it special from his feelings, but introduction of mass culture has split up mankind from the real object.So the bags, which are being manufactured now days are to them, soulless and objectified, Moreover Benjamin feels these bags on display in luxurious stores like Luis Viton store are scene of desolation where workers stand as customer in the f oreground who is not capable of get it, in short in his call back people are enthroned to merchandised, where they are being manipulated by the objects which are out of their approach and at the same time they respect feeling of alienation from themselves and others because their social need are not meet when they force to work whole day with machines, resulting in soulless ready to carry bags in stock(predicate) in the market who have lost their actual meaning.I would totally agree with both of them because I also view quite similar to them, now days in actual society has become classless, objectified and materialistic who only look forward to notes AND MONEY that all, nothing more then that if you carrying nice expensive bag only then you have a right to breath otherwise not. Seriously I dont understand why is that so? wherefore a normal person dont have right to carry what they like or what suits they budget? Why there is always society pressure on ones decision making? Wh y they dont they analyze person from its skills and ability of doing something instead of looking upon her bags that how more branded bags she own? I know these questions are very frustrating and cannot be answered quickly at once because people behavior pattern vary a lot with time-to-time, person-to-person, culture-to-culture but all it ends at one point obsession of bags and its growing hunger to have more and more.
