Top: Plato’s Closet/Shorts: J Crew Factory/Necklace and shoes: Hand me downs/ Purse: Tj Maxx (gift last Christmas)
I realize the title doesn’t at all relate to clothing. It’s more of a personal issue I have. You see, every single time I go to the mall those people at the kiosk SWARM to harass me and ask if they can straighten my hair, play with it, show me how to make it more “manageable.” It’s taken years, actually most of my life to work with these curls so I am overly sensitive about anyone touching or wanting to change them!
ATTENTION WORLD: just because I have curly hair doesn’t mean a) I don’t like it b) DO NOT EVER TOUCH MY HAIR c) don’t assume that just because I have curly hair means I am unhappy with it. I realize that you all have an industry built around people like me who don’t like their curly tendrils but I do. So just STOP running after me in the mall to show me how to make things “manageable.” *rant over* Also while I am ranting and raving, NO I DON’T WANT TO TRY YOUR LOTION. I always try to be polite when I tell them no but man these people are soooo aggressive! I’m not the only one who hates the mall kiosk people right?
In other news, I couldn’t figure out why this outfit felt “off.” At about 7pm I finally figured out why. I forgot to put on mascara. The ONLY makeup I wear is mascara and I am obsessed with it. I don’t mind not wearing any makeup but I couldn’t figure out why I looked so strange. So after running errands, working and taking photos I then figured it out. Naturally.

I'm usually not polite to those people in the mall. I get so annoyed by people trying to stop me when I am out shopping. They do that at our boardwalk…People trying to sell a time share or something. I just don't acknowledge them. Nothing worse than being harassed!! I think your hair looks gorgeous! I love this outfit too by the way…

You look so pretty! Um, those same people always try to straighten my hair too… and I look at them like, 'my hair is already straight'! I LOVE your hair, by the way. 🙂

Your hair is gorgeous and those people that chase you down, strongly dislike them. I pretty much run by without making eye contact!

Funny you should write about this; I have curly hair envy but no amount of curling, gelling, or spraying makes it stay put by the end of the day. It usually sags in a messy lump by my shoulders and turns bone straight from the roots to my ears. I haven't tried again in years.
I've heard of Plato's closet numerous times but I still have no idea what this place is. Your top is very pretty though, which should be motivation to check it out 🙂

I get a little crazed walking through the mall just because someone ALWAYS wants to stop and sell me something. I mean, it's their job, but sometimes it's jut too much. Personally, I would love to have curly (or even wavy) hair. No need to straighten it, ever. I love your curls and how free and natural you keep them.
Also, darling outfit! I love that oversize clutch!

My hair is stick straight, but those straightener people do the SAME thing to me! SO annoying. The lotion people are annoying too. Actually, all kiosk employees are incredibly annoying and pushy. I usually pretend (yes, pretend) that I'm talking on my phone while walking through the mall so that they don't bother me.
On a more positive note, your outfit is adorable, and you look amazing even without mascara 🙂

I know what you mean about the mascara, but its just a habit because looking at it looks perfectly good.

I know they're just trying to do their job, but kiosk workers can be more pushy than I like. People should compliment you on your hair, not try to change it! It looks amazing.
