#AngTunayNaSosyal: How to spot a legitimate sosyal girl

Alixandra Caole Vila - The Philippine Star

MANILA, Philippines – Sosyal, sossy, shala. According to urbandictionary, these coined terms refer to a person who is classy, or someone who is ostentatiously wealthy. So, how can you easily spot a sossy individual in a group?

One might say that an individual is sosyal if she knows the whereabouts of the biggest party scenes and she can get into it without breaking out a single sweat. While others might think that sosyal is someone who can have the latest signature bags ahead of everyone.

But there's more to it than that. Remember, there is a difference between a social climber and a legitimate sosyal girl. Like please, stop using the designers you superfluously flaunt, if you do not even know how to properly spell or pronounce any of them! Louis Vuitton is not Louie Vuitton and Giorgio Armani is not Georgio Armani.

#AngTunayNaSosyal became a trending topic today and we rounded out some of the hilariously true tweets from our Netizens to help you spot a sossy girl.

It's Prada! and no, it's not from Quiapo.

 

"I know the trend, because I am the trend!" -slow clap-

 

It doesn't matter if you just bought your phone 3 months ago. You have to have the latest gadgets.

 

A photo of your Starbucks cup, with a lot of filters and a lot of #hashtags is not sosyal darling.

 

Everyone can spot a sosyal even before she opens her mouth. Just by the way she walks and the way she smells. Chanel N°5 please!

 

A sosyal's theme song when she is on a shopping spree is Sam Smith's "money on my mind." -  "I don't have money on my mind, money on my mind!" - because it really doesn't matter. She surely can afford it.

 

You cannot go on a cat fight with your nemesis. Well, at least not in public. LOL

 

Yes, even when cursing, a sosyal has to be multilingual.

 

That's because even the "pambahay" is MJ.

 

Power triggers envy. Exhibit A, Gretchen Baretto

 

She knows how to take care of her clothes... and her skin. The reason why sosyals look stunning is because they never fail to do their beauty rituals...even if it means being late on a date.

 

Refer to previous!

 

They don't ask for invitations, because they don't need to. 

 

They aren't your usual home buddies. Sosyal girls are usually adrenaline junkies and they usually have expensive hobbies (like TRAVELING!)

 

And lastly...Hello Anne Curtis!
