Alternatively, "loud budgeting'" is centered around the everyday person, or the "average Joe," according to Battle's viral TikTok video. "It's not 'I don't have enough,' it's 'I don't want to spend,'" Battle added. In that way, loud budgeting is "it's almost more chic, more stylish, more of a flex."

☆ From 'wrong shoe theory' to Kramercore: Why Gen Z wants their fashion to be sustainable — and ugly

It's called "wrong shoe theory," and it's yet another Gen Z fashion moment that might seem counterintuitive at first. At the same time, as with many of the challenges that Gen Z encounters, there's an eye toward sustainability and looming climate doom.
