When it comes to be anointed as an “it girl,” I wonder how you stay driven to overcome the simplicity of the label. For example, you could either be a Cory Kennedy and turn into a t-shirt vendor and blogger. Or maybe you can be like Chloe Sevigny, and get involved in some critically acclaimed movies, like the one where she falls in love with the girl who is trying to be a guy.

I think another strategy for “it” girls is to die [via overdose]. I think when alternative celebrities die young, we are all left wondering “what the world will be like without them to influence culture.” Sort of like with Heath Ledger, except “it” girls aren’t always that talented.

“I don’t understand why one girl can be so special. All alternative slutz look the same to me.”

But seriously.

Doesn’t she remind you of your local alternative community’s hippest-looking, and most well-dressed girl who has a d-bag boyfriend (who is either kind mainstream and rich, or works in the coffee shop industry while pursuing his masters). Every one drools all over her, but no one really talks to her because she only has a few friends. Then some one gets to know her, and they find out she isn’t even that culturally-aware, and she only listens to something like the Kings of Leon, and last week she found out about Bat For Lashes. All of the other girls in her facebook network always end up looking at her profile and her weird pictures, but every one wonders why she only has 32 friends.
