Transcript

Things I will not be wearing this summer. Number one, these jelly shoes. I'm sorry, I just can't get with these. I feel like, first off, in the summertime, my feet are sweaty and they are gonna slip out of them at any moment. Don't get me wrong, I love how whimsical they were and they were so cute back in the day when I wore them as a kid. Niche reference, but they remind me of the spray on shoes from Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs. All the cool it girls on Pinterest are wearing these balloon pants and then when I put them on, I look like this. I look like Aladdin. Okay, I look like if you rub my tummy three times I'm gonna grant you a wish. It's time to donate those high waisted ripped jean shorts, babe. They had their time, okay? In 2014, 2016, all the baddies were wearing these. Lay them down to rest. Also, if you have a short torso like I do, it's literally just like boob and then like legs and they just do not look good with this crop top jean shorts situation. Bag charms on everything. I'm overstimulated. That La Boubou is probably overstimulated by the amount of roommates that they have on that bag. Do you agree with me? Do not agree with me? Comment down below what you think.
