Style: Looking Like A Prostitute

Dun dun dun! (That was an attempt at a dramatic sound effect). Here we are again, at the blog, you and me. I have to apologize for not being present for three or so weeks, I was in America (yes, it was AMAZING) and so I didn't have much time for this here blog. Don't worry, now I'm back and now back into the full swing of the blog.

OK so now on to today's post. So being in America, I did a lot of shopping (surprise surprise) and I watched a lot of other people shop too. It still confuses me when someone tries on something hideous and they love it, but I'm standing there thinking that they look like a dickhead; what do you say in these situations? Do you complement them or tell them what you think? 

Anyway I watched a lot of girls shop and I honestly didn't know how they were going to wear what they were buying without looking as though the aim of their day was to have sex. Seriously I'm not one of those people who thinks that your skirt has to be to your knees and if you're showing a bit of bra it's far to raunchy, but there is a definite look of being a prostitute and many girls seem to hit that all the time. And I think I talk for a lot of people when I say that I'm sick of looking at it.

Let's put in some rules here.

1) Do not wear 2 kg of makeup

2) Mascara isn't to glue your eyelashes together when you blink.

3) A shirt is not a dress

4) A bra is not a shirt

5) Your underpants are not shorts

6) A twelve year old cannot wear 4 inch heels

7) Foundation is not meant to be orange

8) Fake nails are not meant to be double the size of your fingers

Now I always assumed these thing were fricken obvious, but apparently not. If you do these things I can guarantee that you will not look cute. Not at all.

But looking intelligent is cute. Looking classy is sexy. Having the look of someone who's got all their shit together (even if you actually wouldn't know where on earth to begin looking for your shit) is something that makes people take a second look.

And looking classy generally means buying more classy things. I'm not saying Chanel or something, no, but things that don't look like they're going to fall apart the first time you throw them in the washing machine. Buy an expensive skirt and crop top and you've nailed both sexy and classy, and completely avoided the look of the sex industry. If you wear an expensive shirt, you can have crazier hair and eccentric make-up and just look like a quirky kid that grew up, but still with the same essence (check out the first collage, woman with sunglasses and pink hair).
