I recently saw a quote from an unknown source on a since-forgotten Instagram account, and it really resonated with me. It seems so damn fitting for me and my generation right now, as we clumsily fumble through the transition of young adults into adulthood, where we save for houses and vacations instead of designer bags and roadtrips. Or maybe I just needed to hear this to self-validate my constant style evolution:
There’s a lot of unspoken pressure to keep liking the things you used to like and to keep dressing the way you’ve always dressed and to never question what you believe in and basically “be yourself” has slowly morphed into “be what everyone knows you as”; but trust me when I say if you just give it up and simply make decisions and take actions based purely on what would make you happy today, you’ll gain a very comforting sense of self peace.
