10 Things I Said WTF to in March / #22
Say it with me....spring is (almost) here!!
Welcome to 10 Things I Said WTF to, my end of month round-up newsletter of 10 things I’ve said WTF to over the past four weeks. Ranging from good to bad, to absolute nonsense °˖✧˚ʚ♡ɞ˚✧
Relationships
Haim are back with a bang!!! If you’ve known me for a while then you know this is a big deal. I’ve loved Haim for as long as I can remember and seeing them at Primavera Sound in 2018 is still one of the best memories of my life!! I love everything about Relationships - the song, the video, the outfits in the video, drew starkey etc etc. If you’ve never been a Haim girlie before then it’s time to educate yourself! Every single album is incredible, and they’re always dressed impeccably so what’s not to love?
Socks or no socks?
After wearing a pair of shoes all day I usually like to let them sit out overnight before confining them back to the box, for a bit of breathing space. The other day I was about to pop my Ganni Mary Janes away and suddenly thought - I’ve never worn these without socks? I slipped my foot into it and looked in the mirror, but something didn’t feel quite right. Even though I see girls wearing mary janes or strappy ballet flats online without socks all the time, something about the leather on my bare foot felt clammy and wrong (even if I kind of liked how it looked).
Then just a few days later I was listening to the latest episode of Emma Chamberlain’s podcast while I cooked dinner and she was discussing her fashion pet peeves, one of which was strappy flat shoes without socks! It was refreshing to know it wasn’t just me having this internal debate, so I wanted to see what you guys think. Are you team socks or no socks?
White Lotus S3
I must admit things are amping up a bit now (looking at you episode 6!) but for a while, the newest season of The White Lotus felt lacklustre. My favourite characters so far are of course Chelsea and Rick, because Aimee Lou Wood can never be anything other than iconic - and let’s face it, Rick is hot. As much as I am enjoying zoning out on my sofa and watching it, I sadly don’t feel particularly interested in any of the characters. The Ratliff family are amusing, but not captivating and the only slightly interesting part about their story is the incest dynamic which almost feels wrong to say. I couldn’t care less about the three friends who all hate each other, and I can’t watch Gaitok risk his job anymore just to follow Mook around like a lost puppy. I’m hoping there’s some sort of crazy twist sooner or later - like someone unexpected being involved in the robbery.
