PLAYSUIT - ARK AND ARROW, LIPSTICK - CALVIN KLEIN, SHOES - WILDFIRE
Heya everyone!
Okay so first of all, I'm expressing my big love to Ark and Arrow for sending me this jumpsuit to show off to all of my followers and friends. Whenever I put it on, I'm instantly transformed into a night sky//a disco dancing badass babe. This sparkly outfit is a definite must-have for parties past midnight. Ark and Arrow stocks so many pretty dresses for both casual wear and party wear and I'm head-over-heels in love with all of them. They're also so cheap for such incredible quality! Because this playsuit is 80% sequins, I was expecting scratchiness, but it was surprisingly comfortable, and is only $39.50 online!!
Quick change of topic~ Something that has been irking me a lot recently is the fact that so many young girls think they need a check of approval from teenage boys in order to feel confident and secure about themselves, and I think that a lot of people who encourage this are unaware that they are doing it. (I'm going to go with generic straight boy/straight girl examples here because from what I've seen, this little rant is not as relevant to gender/sexual minorities) Subtle comments such as 'She's so pretty- I bet all the boys think she's hot' and 'Ugh I feel so shit today. The checkout boy didn't even look at me' imply that girls shouldn't feel great about herself until a boy indicates that he is romantically/sexually interested in her. I used to put my confidence in the hands of boys as well, and I was always so insecure about my body and it felt sooo shitty. I don't really know what happened between then and now- I guess I just grew up and realised that boys' opinions don't matter at all (zilch. zero. absolutely nothing) when it comes to your body and your decisions.
