It was a weird week. I had a lot of thoughts (as I’m sure you did, too) and decided to write some of the more silly/random/lighthearted ones down, just to uh… keep things light! Anyway, here are some observations (otherwise known as hotcakes and goes well with the Spoon song Hot Thoughts) my brain came up with over the last few days.
I’m seeing red socks everywhere (not the sports team!!!!). Like, a lot of outfits I’m clocking involve solid red calf-length or folded socks. Am I late to this? Was this always a thing? I even bought this pair to get in on it. Need proof of said trend? Fine. Rachel Tashjian wore some here, Haring Ross wore some here, and I’m still ready to copy this combo here.
I think the overdone bride is dead. I said it!!!!!!! I’m sorry. I know. To be clear, I am not antibride or even anti well-styled bride. But I might be anti “make this moment my personal branding platform,” and it feels like holy matrimonies have turned into that. If you have to ask the question - Is this a wedding or a content farm? - then it has gone too far. I see how one can get carried away (I mean, I really do). Also, media isn’t helping this (specifically those hyper-focused on the Agua Bendita bride, you know what I’m talking about). Anyone else feeling like this is simply not it anymore (and probably never was….)?
I read on the internet that we have around 60,000 thoughts a day, and that 90% of our thoughts today are the same as the ones we had yesterday. Um… Help?
Why is everyone wearing camo? Is this ironic? Are we all just part of the big game? Are WE the big game? I’m not so keen on this, especially when it’s worn by the design bros of Bed Stuy.
Airpods: You are either the kind of person who has what it takes to handle a pair of these (organized, keeps track of belongings, good with tech issues), or you are not. Whatever you do, do not become someone who doesn’t have what it takes and keeps trying to do Airpods. It’s okay!!! You don’t HAVE to do Airpods. Some of us are not meant for them!!!! I’d argue that wires are more functional anyway.
March is like the Thursday of months. We’re almost in spring, warm days are coming, good times are coming. Let’s end on that positive note, shall we?
Thanks for reading my thoughts. I would absolutely love to hear yours. Please share them in comments or just DM me.
