Pink Placebo

I self-medicate with clothing sometimes, as superficial as it may sound the texture or colour of a piece of clothing can sometimes have a profound effect on my state of mind. I've been really confused, contemplative and distracted since my friend's wedding this past weekend.. what flavour should the cake be at my wedding? why am I a spinster at 22? will Don Draper accept my marriage proposal? if Don says no can I get married to myself? will I always be this emotionally detached from real life, forever pining after fictional men/ cartoon characters (cc: Johnny Bravo, Kocoum from Pocahontas, Lloyd Dobler from Say Anything, Rufio from Hook, King Leonidas from 300 etc).
After days of this nonsense I decided to cut the crap, put on my new pink Motel shorts (pink makes me feel uncluttered and unmessy) and my old grey t-shirt (anything grey marl makes me feel clean, fresh and under control), this super simple ensemble helped me get my head back into work-mode!

I think we all go through it; like kind of a mini quarter-life crisis. Lord knows I've been there and know it well. Kudos, darling, for picking yourself back up with the aid of those delectable shorts ♥

Ah, don't worry about those pesky issues. When you look as good as you do in the simplest of outfits, what is there to complain about? Great combo. I like simplicity sometimes.

oh stop it, marriage is so overrated. what does it even mean? I don't get the need for that piece of paper and that freaking ring. what's it gotta do with love anyway? and there's nothing strange in finding consolation in clothes, at least not for me. and you look just ah-mazing.
