THE PHANTOM PEPLUM

send help and a scissors to cut off the peplum

hi my gorgeous goddess,

welcome to What Is This Regarding? where we take a critical lewk at wtf’s going on around us. all wk i haven’t been able to shake the feeling of the phantom peplum - I SWEAR TO GD I CAN FEEL IT IN THE AIR -and i can’t stop thinking about WHY TF we were all boardroom-ready to hit Goldbar.

its the pleasure doing business bandage skirt and the Jessica Simpson nude patent leather platform pump and the michael kors front zip heel of it all.

its the bad faux leather and the boots and the pencil silhouete bro NO its just terrible and i can’t handle if this ever comes back in style.

the biggest issue besides the enormous belt and 300 lb statement necklace was that the corporate to club pipeline actually was only for people who did not in fact have the potential to get a corporate job. aka, me when i wore these exact aforementioned zip heels and bandage skirt to every frat party where the floor was sticky and the vodka was Bankers and there was zero reason for us to all be in blazers. although low key now i’m like… did we need business cards? NO I’M LOSING THE PLOT!!!

GIRLS THIS IS JUST GETTING TOO DARK IM GOING TO A DARK PLACE AND ITS TIME WE EMERGE TO A DIFFERENT SAFE PLACE OF FRESH SACRED INSPIRATION!!!!!!!

i think we should actually use this opportunity to talk about “work.” WORK and DREAMS.

little us was playing four square, making up rules, drawing things and writing little essays and putting stickers on things and doing so much just to see if we could learn and have a little fun. so today my friends i urge us to do just that. forget “work” and instead embrace “dreams” but not the dreams that are actually nightmares about peplum skirts.

lemme try that again!!! bc i do think its rly important!!!! all i know is NO ONE knows anything for sure.

so it feels CRITICAL that we all band together and just remind each other that doing hair wraps in the middle of the day and taking a long lunch to gab and spending a litttttttttle extra time gossiping having serious conversations, SKIPPING to the function instead of just walking!!!!!!!!!! is something to srsly consider.

bc whimsy.

also ultimately

let’s not take things so seriously today girlies. let’s just be okay.

SO while you goof off consider this gentle read about how trad wifery is cringe when done wrong and a concept 2 consider when executed like the best human ever / cover star Elaine. (read it to understand!!!!)

i love you like i hate the crumbs matzah is making all over my apt,

<3
