This Could Get Ugly...

Confession
I'm wildly jealous of girls who pull off cool like it ain't no thing. You know the kind of girls I mean. The ones that can do the whole messy hair, no make up, "Oh this top? I got it at a vintage store in New York/London. I'd almost forgotten I had it. I just threw it on. Honest, I didn't even think about it." These are the same kind of people who have a knack for finding the perfect stuff at vintage stores that no matter how hard I look I can't find and also seem to be able to make the most delightful looking meals and confections that are both tasty and good for you. They wear all sorts of crazy patterns all mashed together in one outfit, but instead of looking messy and uncoordinated, they look whimsical and stylish, where as when I try anything outside stripes or polka dots I look like a pioneer woman gone wrong (or worse, a polygamist wife.) These are the girls who can wear bows in their casually pulled back hair and not look like they're 5, which I envy because I look like I'm 12 even with my hair done and make-up; on add a bow and we're talking toddler.
Anyway...that was today's confession. 
Don't judge.

Now you can laugh when some other "never hafta try" girl writes a post about how jealous she is of those "eternally youthful and always looking put together" girls (i.e. Mal).
