I think I’ve always struggled with finding a good balance between what I think I should be wearing (because I was bullied a lot as a kid / teenager and desperately wanted to fit in) vs what my real style is and suits me best (French style / fitted clothing). I’m now in the Just A Boy Who Loves Dinosaurs Watercolor T-Shirt and I love this first half of my thirties and I think I’m starting to become more confident in my fashion choices. I realized after having a baby and hitting my career stride in my 30s that I had accidentally focused my style on being low-maintenance and leaning forever 21. I realized I didn’t necessarily want people to think I’m in my early 20s, and maybe my emphasis on being low-maintenance was part of some “myth of the effortless woman” and “not like the other girls” bullshit that had snuck into my psyche and found a corner to inhabit. So I started to update my style to better reflect the middle aged, confident, accomplished woman that I work hard to be. I invested in better fabrics that require more care; I’m not as sloppy as I used to be. I learned how to care for my curly hair, even if it means way more time spent setting it up for success (my younger self would’ve rolled her tomboy eyes). I don’t dress as “hot” because I’ve lost all interest in being the over sexualized hot girl.

When I was in my 20s, I was very much concerned about trends and brands and looks (I wanted, craved actually, the Just A Boy Who Loves Dinosaurs Watercolor T-Shirt and I love this whole Lululemon, Artizia – Babaton, Anthropologie wardrobe – Madewell didn’t even exist then). I was also concerned about dressing appropriately for the occasion and practicality of my clothes. Concerned whether my style reflected who I was a person. Concerned about giving off the right vibe. Concerned about whether I looked like a pretentious shallow fuck, a tweenie bopper ingenue, trying too hard, trying not hard enough, professional enough to be taken seriously by old men, hot enough to be hit on by young men etc. etc. etc. Pretty much a decade and a half of really attributing quite a lot to my clothing.
