After a few turbulent few weeks, I have mustered up the strength write again. Let’s not get into it. Perhaps a post for another time. But today, I’d like to share my tried and tested internet beauty hacks. Now not everything on the internet works. Well, I would think you were rather suggestible if you believed everything on the internet. These beauty hacks kept popping up on the internet so I decided to give it a go and here we are.

Perspective, Style

The Unfortunate Tales of Purchasing Shoddy Expensive Clothing

I always envisioned myself working at a publication. Writer? Of course. Perhaps in lifestyle, design or fashion. I always dreamed that my life would be like a subtle version of The Devil Wears Prada (still my favourite movie) I would have an impressive collection of clothing for work, dressed to perfection and oozing style. Fast forward to reality, I wear jeans three days out five. I choose flats over heels and I’m perfectly okay with that. But this isn’t about why I prefer running around in flats. It’s about MANGO. My go to choice of clothing for work. You see MANGO is some weird way satisfies my publication dreams. It’s on trend, it can be worn for the everyday woman and it is instant style.

Perspective

We are told.

We are told.

We are told to be independent, but not too independent.

We are told to be free thinkers, but not to think too far.

We are told to do more, but not too much.

We are told to be more but stay exactly the same.

We are told to be strong, but not stronger than men.

We are told we’re free, but to remember not to taint the family name.

We are told that we must be successful, but to remember marriage comes first.

We are told that once we marry, ownership is transferred from father to husband.

We are told to be educated, but not to question anything.

We are told we’re entitled to an opinion, but not to speak up.

We are told to dress conservatively, but not to wear baggy clothing.

We are told to be original but do not be different.

Grow some “fierce”, darling.

This consistent debate haunts me more me every morning when deciding what to wear. In all honesty, I was a better dresser. Was. Nowadays I dress up for comfort. I’ve stopped putting in the effort, all because the truth is – I don’t know how to dress for my body anymore. I’ve put on quite a bit of weight. Nothing’s really changed in my lifestyle, I’d like to think I am somehow growing in a way. Regardless, my hips and breasts are more noticeable. So is my derrière. Not forgetting my thighs. So a fuller figure and nothing to wear. What’s a grown woman to do?
