Being a human

I am fully aware that this has nothing to do with fashion or beauty or anything that could possibly fall into either of these categories or anything in the slightest bit similar but I feel as though it's something that needs to be said and shared with the blogging community. 
Being human is hard, excuse how ridiculous that might sound, but it's true. There is a constant judging from everyone that walks by or that passes you on the street and if I'm honest that thought completely scared me. Despite me being a culprit of this myself I still believe it's utterly wrong yet it's hard to stop. If a young woman walks past you with a cigarette between her fingers pushing a pram in the other hand the connotations that come with this are ghastly. Yet you have no idea what's going on in her life or anything about her. She may be the kindest, most loveliest person on the planet yet you're judging of her makes her seem as though she is one of the most disgusting creatures on the planet. 
I'm not accusing anyone of being a horrible human being because of this because I can guarantee everyone has done this at least once in their lives. I'm just saying that it's hard to be human when everyone is constantly looking down on each other picking out the worst in people that we may not even know the smallest part of information about. 

No money, beautiful clothes

I have always been that girl with very limited spending money yet with a great love for clothes, makeup and anything to do with fashion and 'the latest trends' as it were.
Clothing in the main high-street retail shops are incredibly over priced- £30 for a blouse that wont last one season before it becomes out a fashion and something more desiring catches your eye.
Despite seeing these beautiful clothes every time you walk into town many young teenage girls do not have this sort of money to spend on one item of clothing.
I understand that these high-street shops need to make a profit but isn't this going over board? With the shops gaining probably something along the lines of 100% profit can they not afford just to reduce the price slightly?
I hate being the girl that loves fashion and clothes and never being able to afford anything. My wardrobe is very limited and sparse I have no doubt that if I had enough extra money to spend on clothes my style would be completely different to what I go out and wear today and I'm sure many girls feel the same.
I think that if these stores reduced their prices by even just the slightest amount they would have an increased amount of sales. More people would be able to afford more clothes meaning that surely these retail stores would have a rise in earnings.
These ridiculous prices need to stop.
