Streetstyle commonplaces

I have just seen the milionth photo of a beautiful girl wearing a pair of Valentinos and holding a bike with pretty little basket. 'Scuse me while I dejá-vu all over the fucking place.

I remember the time when we all switched to blogs because they were a fresh alternative to fashion magazines, yet now I have the same feeling about blogs I once had about glossy publications - that they too have become samey, bombarding us with similar content, shapes, brands, beauty standards, just as magazines used to do. After milking streetstyle for I dont know how many years, it should come as no surprise that its fashion forwardness has slowly begun to wane. I feel let down by fashion blogs in general (and sometimes even bored of streetstyle photography) because for me it rarely portrays individuality, which is what used to draw me into it the most.
