And I was browsing, naturally, because who doesn’t love window shopping even if you’re broke af (me, hi!), and I noticed, you know, you can actually FIND Balenciaga scarves that *don’t* have the BB monogram all over the place. Shocking, right? I mean, it’s BALENCIAGA. It’s practically their brand identity at this point.
But then I thought about it… maybe that’s the *real* flex. To be wearing something that’s clearly high quality, the fabric is amazing, the construction is on point, but it doesn’t scream “BALENCIAGA!” to everyone who walks by. It’s like, you’re in the know, and *they* might not be. Makes you feel kinda elite, doesn’t it? Even if you got it on a semi-dodgy eBay deal (don’t judge me, a girl’s gotta eat!).
Plus, let’s be real, sometimes the logo stuff can be a bit… much. I mean, I saw one that was, like, ALL OVER LOGO MACRO SCARF. Macro. Seriously? My eyeballs can’t handle that much. I appreciate the subtle things, the textures, the color palettes. I saw this one that was dark beige and white, brushed wool, and that sounds HEAVENLY. I can practically feel it just reading about it. See? No logo needed to sell me on that baby.
And the thing is, a logo-free Balenciaga scarf? It’s just… more versatile. You can wear it with anything. You don’t have to worry about clashing with other logos, or looking like you just raided the Balenciaga gift shop. It’s just… chill. Effortless. Which, ironically, probably takes a lot more effort to achieve than just slapping a logo on everything.
