My go-to accessories for all seasons are pimples. I feel like a little bit of acne goes a long way, and can really change the vibe of your outfit and the overall message that you send to the world. That message usually being "I need a shower" or "I just got dumped", however it need not be limited to these.
Pimples are by far the hardest accessory to rock- even tougher than a fedora, and you should know how I feel about fedoras by now. Few people can confidently give a dissertation in front of a room full of strangers being aware of their third eye scaring everyone into submission.
What I'm getting at here is that my skin is like an angry mountainous terrain map right now and I was feeling sorry for myself for a long time until the pimple to end all pimples reared its ugly white head the other day. I realized that there was nothing I could do to cover it up (I'm not a huge makeup person): people are going to notice it no matter what. Rather than act mousy and try to strategically place things in front of my face and/or not participating in society until the pimple goes away, I decided to rock it. I am currently working the pimple like nobody's business. Today I spoke in my biggest lecture. I even went to a party with people I'm not super close with. My pimple looked everyone dead in the eyes and asked them to look deep inside themselves and consider whether a single, really gross pimple is just reason to hide yourself from the world. So when you've got a crazy pimple, girl just work it.
Thing is... your pimples would still have a really hilarious sense of humor and rockin bod. So most people just probably walked away saying "I really like Alma's nex friend Acnasia. I bet she'd make a great hostess."
