A simple fairy

As someone who is stuck at the employment agency (current no. 1 mission: getting a drivers license) I must admit I haven't really been minding my looks when I get up in the morning. Some BB cream, a plain sweater and, if I have the time, some simple hair styling. Which is really boring to me, since I love getting all dolled up in the morning. It's like a ritual to summon energy. The lack of this has, without me realizing it, been quite tiring.

Today I decided to get back into an old habit of mine: dressing up for friday. I invented it when I was still attending school. Sometimes I feel that I need a reason to look all fancy, and I thought "celebrating the end of the week" was legit enough.

Milklims Ice Cat Sweater is so cute and comfortable!

I got up a few minutes earlier than usual to get ready. I decided to go for a simple fairy kei outfit, as I didn't want to overdo it. In the end, I felt very happy and comfortable with my look.

Almost no accessories - I'm not used to wear them at all lately!

My supervisor complimented me on my outfit, and even recognized it as a japanese fashion! I was happily surprised. She seemed quite interested and asked what it was called, so I gave her a brief introduction to fairy kei.

It's kind of amazing how nice it can feel to look a certain way, and today reminded me of that. I sometimes fall into phases when I give in to the idea that everyone will think I'm weird and attention seeking when in reality all I want to do is feel confident and cute. 

It doesn't have to be over the top to bring joy! :3
