You ever wake up in the morning and find the need to channel your inner Disney princess? No? Just me? Well then...
Usually I tend to go for my favorite, Aurora, and rock some pink or Lilly Pulitzer - what I am generally expected to wear by everyone who has ever met me. Not today though. Today I decided it was time to channel my inner Pocahontas. Clearly, I felt like being the most boring of all the princesses because, lets face it, other than Colors of the Wind, that movie is entirely a snore. If I'm watching a Disney movie, I'm not trying to get a history lesson - I'm trying to swoon over an animated prince and daydream about a life that should rightfully be mine - the life of a princess. But alas, I am not; I am a college student with an "Archaeology and the Bible" quiz which is about 12 and a half steps down from glamorous. Thus emerges my internal need to portray a very unglamorous princess - Pocahontas.
With my high top, fringed moccasins that my boyfriend so lovingly refers to as my Native American shoes; some flower patterned, polka dotted, loud and proud leggings that he, also lovingly, refers to as "interesting" in probably the least loving way possible; and an oversized off-white t-shirt, I braided my hair into some pigtails, popped on my Warby Parkers, and headed off to my quiz. I got so many compliments on the way there about how bold my outfit was and how I was owning the patterned pants that I showed up feeling hella confident to my quiz. Needless to say, I got a 100. Seriously, wear something fabulous on quiz days because you'll either 1. be so confident in yourself that you'll nail it, or 2. you'll fail entirely but still feel great about the fact that you're looking great. If you look great, there's always that glimmer of hope that a rich man will marry you and that's really all we're working towards, isn't it?
