23.1.14

One thing that makes me feel good about how I’m presenting myself to the world is feeling “done up” in terms of how I look when I leave the house. This doesn’t necessarily mean I’m wearing a slinky sex-jumpsuit (not sure if this is a thing, but whatever) with perfectly blow-dried hair and a full face of makeup—just that I look like the person I picture myself as on my best days. Sometimes this means I’m wearing an apron over my skirt because I think it looks cool, or I did my eyeliner in that weird and awesome way I saw online and kept wanting to try. For you, it might mean doing a cool braid or a red lip. What makes you feel polished or put-together? Do those things!
