#The Selfie Revolution

 

We live in a world where hash tagging is the norm, selfies are a daily way of life, and social media as an overall whole, is almost just as important to winning fashion street cred as talent. The concept of personal promotion has taken a whole new meaning with brands such as Calvin Klein capitalizing on the publics selfie obsession in their recent #mycalvins add campaign.  In an effort to better understand what I will call the selfie revolution I dug deep within in myself, (not that deep), found my funny bone, and went out in the field (my apartment) to better understand the types of selfies that exist and where they originated.

It’s Tuesday morning and you woke up like this. Full face of makeup beaten to the gods and a lot of booty that you are determined to show the world. You probably had a crazy night out either making sex tapes, or just being a general slore bag, for you my friend is the Kim K.

You are 13, vulnerable, faking tits that aren't there, and think you're beyond sexy. (a SVU victim waiting to happen.) :0
