Good evening at the 30th off November, 2024.

 Good evening everyone, 

Today was a cold and bright day in the Netherlands. 

*

I'm typing you this while my nails dry, I painted them 'Brick or Treat.' By Essence, some sort off a 90's shade. 

It's not a nude, but it matches the 90's brick lipstick trends off the moment. And I think this can be worn without breaking hearts, or neighbours batting their obnoxious eyes. And a personal reason: To add a hint off spice to my look. I became somewhat boring to see, so I painted my nails. 

It's kinda the standard these days for ordinairy women: Clean, simply cut nails without paint. I know, it's the crisis, it's poor old Zaanstad and people try it simplistic these days. But a simple Essence nail polish hopefully won't do harm. I have the feeling a lot off young women almost look like Christian nuns these days due to poverty. Undyed hair, simple clothes and no make-up. I see even their eyebrows aren't plucked. It's sincere wealth and luxury to look a bit better. I personally come from a depression, and I'm a lame mental patient when it comes to it, but it's something to mention: The plainness off a lot off young women. I should not criticize, it's crisis, people have no money, and house brand body washes and shampoos are already pricey to them. Cool clothes are often second hand, and mascara is probably too much, too pricey, or rumor has it- out off fashion. I've read big lashes are a no-go these days. Just like eyeshadow. I should not judge. It's just that girls and young women back in the days looked a bit better. But if we judge, I should dye my hair again and wear make-up on a daily base. So let's not be too loud on it. It's a big fat crisis, let's only judge if they're washed and clean. I think I can set my standards there somewhere. A clean woman is what we all should be. Lady-like or more style is something for after the crisis. (Hopefully for them. Somehow I believe they're more vain than what they display) 

Do I feel guilty for painting my nails? I hope I will get rid off that feeling. It's in my head, but the inspiration to look less boring was more loud. 

Somehow I wish magazines would take more count off poorer people, and share more ideas with their readers on style, food, items, where to shop and where not to shop on a low budget. But companies don't seem to take count off poor people and the crisis. As far as I can see, we have to figure this out ourselves. Not much magazines are off help. It's just expensive fun items they show us. And their subscriptions are increasing all the time. So it's hard to keep on being informed about every day style. Or at least the lady-like style that's off my personal taste. 

It's no miracle the people have become a bit ratchet. But maybe I'm a bit offensive. Do I take offend? That would be a bit rude off me. It's just that I don't like people not displaying more style. It's rude. But I love to see the people all stylish and bold, the way they would love it themselves. I don't know, I try not to be too offensive about it. And Vogue declared to 'work with natural traits.' in style some time ago. Natural beauty is in fashion. Or at least it has been in 2023. I think most ordinairy people without fabulous traits won't sign for that. I think big volume mascara will be on trend again as soon as we're out off the crisis. A lot off women simply love that. 

So, yeah. A bit off nailpolish on Saturday night, behind my computer, in my PJ's. Since where was I about to go? It's cold outside. It's been tiresome, and all a psychiatric patient like me craves for, is enough rest in the evening. 

Allright, that's about it for now- 

Thank you for reading.
