So, take a deep breath and trust yourself. Personal style is always a work in progress — especially when you are diving into a whole new branch of fashion culture. Try the things you like and see what sticks.

I love it, but I know every “clean girl” aesthetic, every dewy no-makeup makeup routine and every “morning shed” ritual is just another layer of consumerism dressed up as self-care. But knowing doesn’t stop me. If anything, it makes me more fascinated. I don’t just want to use these products — I want to understand why we want them so badly in the first place.
