Oh I loved this so much. Plus one to your comment about straight legged jeans. And also, I’m active on IG too but in such a different way I hear you all on that. There’s something weird about “selling yourself” that IG lends itself to that I don’t know how to do/dont want to do.

“Straight legged jeans are a lie!” 🙌🏻 Thank you for remembering 😄 and saying this aloud and helping me move through the thought that my body is wrong in straight legged jeans and arrive at the fact that, that there are no straight legged jeans on bodies, or maybe just that a straight legged body (a different body than mine is fine!) is the only thing that may make them real.

I loved the part of this conversation when you all talked about how putting our outfits in the world can come with a pressure to “push the boundaries” or not repeat outfits and I think SS is single-handedly healing me from that. The people who, in fact, are the most inspiring are rewearing their clothes, reiterating outfits they like, etc. I found the IG vs SS vs TikTok comparison to be interesting too; I find IG to be bottomless in a way that I find so overwhelming and it was freeing to hear that validated.
