The "Five things that make me less girly than I thought I was" article



I consider myself to be a girly girl. It might have taken me longer than some other females (I only bought my hair straightener when I was 23!) but here I am: I love lace, I love skirts, I love hearts and pink and cupcakes. Yet, I lack many aspects of the...princess girly girl. I can name five.

Number 1

 I don't like French manicure and fake nails. I don't like fake in general. Tan, hair and eyelashes that don't belong to me are a no-no & a disgusting look thrown at anyone wearing them. (too harsh?)

Number 2

When I wear high heels, my feet hurt so I don't. Does it make sense? I think high heels are very feminine and  that there is nothing like a beautiful pair of shoes BUT the reality of life comes knocking on my door (not literally, that would be funny) every time I wear some. Sigh. High heels are not everyday shoes. If you're not a model and wear them for a living, there is no use to torture your feet. Also, I am tall and I as attractive as a giant can be, I'll pass.

Number 3

I don't own bling. No sir. Expect for an engagement ring (hint to anyone who wants to marry me), I think it always looks tacky and quite frankly, wrong if you're over 20.

Number 4

I don't wear make-up everyday. Not that I don't need it, it's just nice sometimes to be naturelle. Non? Also, it has taken me time to accept myself the way I am, so why ruin it with make-up? I even sometimes don't wear make-up [insert dramatic music here] to work. Oh no. She didn't. Well, yes I did. When you get up with only 20 mins to go, priority is getting dressed and eating a breakfast.

Number 5

I still don't understand how to have cool hair every day & it annoys me to spend too much time figuring it out. Even though talking about hair is probably one of my favorite subjects of conversation ever (slight exaggeration spotted), all the talking obviously doesn't help the practical side of things! If I have cool hair in the morning - it probably happened by chance.

So here they are. Five things that makes me less girly than I thought I was.

What about youuu?
