Have you ever been overcome with such a severe case of laziness that you decided to forego a most-awaited party?
Me too.
As far as I’m concerned, when it comes to us women, there’s only one type of lazy that could cause us to back-out from a party. It’s called:
LOOK LAZY. FEEL LAZY:
As I stare at myself in the three-way, full-length mirror in my room, I’m greeted by a horrified gaze.
Why horrified you ask?
Dry, lifeless hair, skin dotted with ‘those-that-must-not-be-named’, arms and legs covered in appalling levels of ‘you-know-what’ & nails that resemble the Dark Lords’. (Did he even have nails??)
Point being, when you’ve missed your monthly meet with Fairy Godmother, you will look lazy, hence feel lazy & therefore end up waving goodbye to your friends from the doorway instead of getting into the speeding-away-car with them!
After finding myself in this unfortunate spot one times too many, I decided to take action. So, here’s presenting Option 1 from my list of ‘fool-proof’ party outfits, complete with styling tips!
I call it SHEER BLACK:
What’s the outfit?
- A sleeveless black sheer back top with polka dots on the back and gold zip detailing on the front;
- Worn with a cage bra that can be seen through the back and paired with black jeans and ankle boots;
- Accessorized with simple gold plated jewellery and black painted nails;
- Hair tied up in a high ponytail, face accentuated with a splash of dark red/maroon lipstick and kajal.
Why it’s a quick-fix?
- Jeans to cover up my beary-legs
- A high pony for bad hair days
- Black nailpaint to hide stubborn cuticles and unshapely nails
- And don’t worry about your arms, a 2-minute VEET or a cool jacket, should take care of that!
Next time you find yourself in a ‘look lazy, feel lazy’ situation, you’ll know how to turn it around into ‘look good, feel good’!!
