    We go wrong, Walker believes, not when we express ourselves through our possessions, but when we allow our possessions to take precedence. It’s all too easy for people, under the influence of the siren songs of marketing (or murketing), to drift into a situation in which they use commodities “not to reflect who they are, but to construct who they are. Not to reflect a self, but to build a self.” No object, of course, is meaningful enough to fulfill that role, and an endless cycle of chasing after glittering but ultimately…

Conspicuous consumption leads to increasing demands for luxury good items and it is a growing industry with the global luxury goods market growing 9% per year (Business Wire, 2007). Advertising has a lot to do with it, especially Americans who are being constantly bombarded with advertisements on a daily basis.

    People often regard the ideas that are generally accepted by the multitudes as “truths”. However, many of them are not scientifically proven and lack logical and reasonable explanations. According to Saupe’s “What is Pseudoscience?”, such ideas are called “pseudoscience”. To be more specific, they are claimed to be scientific, but do not have objective evidence to prove that they are true. If people cannot distinguish between pseudoscience and scientifically proved science, the results would be consequential. False science would lead to the misunderstanding of things and cause people to do things wrongly and might lead to harms and damages eventually. To evaluate if the information is credible, there are some standards; for example, check the credentials of the author, check the credibility of the sources of the information and the relevant sources that the information contains and see if the author has good logics to prove the information (Saupe, 2005).…

    Thinking of fashion, many names come into mind: Gucci, Louis Vuitton, Dior, Burberry, Marc Jacobs, and Yves Saint Laurent, but the one that sticks out over all of these seems to constantly be Chanel. Chanel’s story is most inspiring due to her journey; she was not born into the glamour life. Chanel had to work for success, coming up from impoverishment, not even bringing a family with her out of it. She was to be the name on the company, the one that will be admired and noted for the work she did and the obstacles she overcame. Coco Chanel’s hardships not only shaped her future and designs, but they revolutionized fashion and created an iconic image and company that will not be forgotten.…
