Red, pleated skirt from the 80s, with hook and zipper closure on the side. Size small.
I was reading the Wikipedia page on anorexia at 7 a.m. this morning because I woke up with cramps and couldn't fall back asleep. I don't know why. The information was neither new nor revealing but obviously got me thinking about my own relationship with food and that of others I've observed.
I don't think it'd surprise any girl to hear that most women I know have an uncanny and uncomfortable relationship with food. They don't have eating disorders but do have disordered eating habits, and I'm not exempt from this. I was so obsessed with losing weight at one point that all I ate was celery for months. That was yeeeeeears ago, but I still can't stand the taste of it today. Most of this goes unnoticed, though, because it's so normal, and even trivial to some, for women to be worried about their weight; regardless of their age. I'm aware that none of this is revolutionary or unheard of, but it is something I've felt more present now that I'm taking pictures of myself aaaaaaall the time which, if you know me, you know is not like me!!!! YOLO, though!!
ANYWAY, it's almost 9 a.m. now, and this has nothing to do with the skirt. I contemplated buying it because I wasn't certain it was vintage, and I want everything on here to be vintage. You know how bitches buy used clothes and call them vintage just because? I’m not bitches. I did my due diligence, however, and it does appear to be, SO BUY IT IF YOU LIKE IT.
