Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, How I wonder what you are?
Up above the world so high, Like a diamond and a Sigh.
Welcome to the world of Wonders.
Truly, there are many things money can buy, for everything else, share it with someone else. ;)
There is a world that awaits every woman which is beyond Love, Lust and beauty.
It is the world of Fashion, brands and diamonds. This is the world of Power. The reason for a real twinkle in the eye ;)
We are all little Starlets of our dreams. Being and feeling powerful for a woman manifests itself by her worldly possessions. I came across a rather interesting tweet,
" As kids, guys like cars and girls love Dolls. Strangely as they grow up, hobbies exchange , Men love Dolls & Women like Cars. "
Indeed very true.
Women are not shallow creatures, but they love to flaunt their possessions. Its a mark of achievement, borrowed (Hubby's) or earned. Lets meet some New Best Friends of Women. Its a trend fast catching up, the thirst to own Designer Brands and Solitaires. There is a price you pay to acquire assets- Drums of Money. Women today mind not being arm-candies , if wondrous delights keep falling into their laps with "Much Ado About Nothing." Today love speaks only one language- the language of money. You wish to proclaim your Lady Love for life, buy her whatever money can buy. It better be jewels, bags, anything designed by designers you can't properly pronounce/spell. This can never go wrong. :)
I wonder though, why is there so much hoopla around Big Bang Brands? Women can stand in ques for hours to own a KILLER PIECE by any leading fashion brand. What again was that?? ..E SAY LAUREN though its written as YVES SAINT LAURENT. It is a proper noun, so even if you pronounce it weirdly , why should eye-brows pop ? Why should one not raise an alarm when such brands charge a premium of more than 1000% on their products. I can sound phony, but I love these brands. I love them not for their quality or their unique offering , I love them because others envy these brands. Its out of reach of millions and offer me a world where I am defined not by WHO I AM, but by WHAT I HAVE. Yes, we are somewhat shallow and are perfectly fine with this.

My new CGPA is not Cumulative Grade Point Average, a mere number. But it can be Cavalli- Gucci-Prada-Armani. Who would not wish to be high on this materialistic definition? Everyone and anyone who can afford it. These immaterial possessions amount to an average of more than 30% HH spends in affluent families. Not only are these confidence boosters , they also amount to quick social upgradation into the world of Page 3 which is "Up above the world so high".
A Daimond studded pretty hostess, at a Party , in a chic knee-length classic designer LBD is to die for, is'nt it? Now I am sure you would not ask, what is LBD? Hmm...Little Black Dress it is. A must have for any woman who sees a Starlet in herself. Such small nothings, which cost a million bucks also grab a million eyeballs. Hence, in terms of Cost Benefit analysis, this is a sound investment & no other asset can possibly give such an instant gratification- The marvelous twinkling eyes which are exactly the color of Envy.
This is the world where Riches are honored and revered not education. Our aspirations are not to be noble and kind, but to look like a Million Dollar baby. ;) This is no mark of Shallowness , but about arriving in life. What if I cannot name the brands the way world does, as long as the world is at my feet, do I need to worry? Sometimes even the most intelligent and poised souls have to speak the language of money, just to get their way through the shine of hollow jewels as "all that glitters is not gold".
Even if I love to subscribe to the means of the world and make a guest appearance on "World's stage" , I would rather be playing a role which makes people wonder about that "Cute Classy thing" if not a "Drop-dead gorgeous hottie". Atleast I can Make My Mark. Whatever you splurge on, make sure " You're worth it" , because in the end someone will see through you and ask you, "Is it Real?" and instantly all cameras will turn away from you to another Starlet of Substance.
We forget that those Brands are what we make them. A world you do not know of, will never matter to you.
This is a symbiotic relationship. None will survive without the other. A world which is built on perceptions of everything which will not make sense to you in a simple life. High Heels, all made up dolls, polished bodies and bluffing smiles welcome you seldom. For those crazy moments of life, keep the actress in you alive. Treat life like a red-carpet someday, live your dream as a Diva sometimes. Indulgence is good, Love yourself without a Sigh. Afterall, you live once , "Its your life, make it large". ;)
Ladies, Make hay while the Sun shines, and Save the Twinkle of your eyes.
You decide the worth of a brand, Rest you will see in the Eyes of your Man.
PS- Now that we only understand the language of Money, Save a drum of Cash for the needy, it can get you blessings and goodwill.
(Whoever thought all that social service is for benefit of humanity, knows nothing about regrets of a Shopaholic. )

Refreshingly Honest !!!!
I particularly enjoyed reading this -"A world which is built on perceptions of everything which will not make sense to you in a simple life."
Perceptions are built so that to make you want things that you actually do not need. Of course, wanting material possessions is in no way being materialistic/shallow but one never does know where to stop wanting !!!
Write more often !
Yes we all love our possessions, but sometimes instead of us making them, they define us. That's what is disturbing. Thanks for reading it through.
