QUIETWORLD

this may come as surprise or it may not, but shopping for clothes isn’t my favourite activity. i know that’s basically heresy in the circles i’m most active in, where shopping is a primary coping mechanism for the immense amount of pain and stress the world foists upon us. it goes without saying that retail therapy is an increasingly popular outlet for stressed young people, and i am no different.

however, i’ve always hated shopping for clothes. i don’t like the process of picking everything out and trying everything on. i want to get in and out, spend as little time outside as i can. so, getting me to a clothing outlet is like pulling teeth. i would rather go back and forth with an online seller returning clothes that don’t fit than spend fifteen minutes at a store.

that being said, it’s time for some new clothes. my wardrobe is mostly what i would refer to as “casual subcul jirai” where i’m still using a lot of the motifs and styling, but with a lot fewer accessories. my whole wardrobe already features dark colours contrasted with pastels. what i’m really looking for is some classic jirai outftits to add a little bit off flavour and variety to the rotation.

i’ve already got all the items i want added to my cart and all that’s left to do is get paid and buy them! i’m so excited!

i also did my nails today. i really wanted to try the curvlife semi-solid nail glue as it was everywhere on tiktok and if i can get 2 weeks out of my press ons, you bet i’m locking in. so far, so good! these nails have been underwater today and they’re not even the slightest loose. they even took few impacts from me not knowing where my fingers end anymore, but the real test is going to be the shower, which i’m headed off to now!

wish me luck!
