I don’t know if it’s the self-isolation or just the wisdom of my 30s, but lately I’ve stopped caring so much about whether my clothes are “flattering.” What does that even mean and why should it be that important? I got this blouse in Paris and I’ve barely worn it because every time I put it on, I think it makes me look slightly pregnant and I end up changing.

So what? Pregnant people are a level of badass I will never achieve (by choice), so why would I be afraid to look like them? (But if you ask my how far along I am, I will give you my best death stare.) This blouse is cute, it reminds me of my vacation en France, I like it, and I shall wear it.

We have now entered the phase of quarantine where my style has evolved into “independently wealthy lady on permanent vacation in the Hamptons” even though my real life remains “lady working a full-time job from her bungalow in Indianapolis.” Dress for the job you want, amiright?
