my ins + outs list for spring

vibe check!

i always try to pretend i don’t get butthurt when i read someones ins/outs list and they name something on their ‘outs’ list that i love. but i always end up making these lists to do a little ‘vibe check’ to see what i’m currently into because tastes change all the time and ultimately, it’s just an opinion. so here’s my list of ins/outs - of course, you can disagree with something that i’ve put on my ‘outs’ list and the world will continue to keep spinning! having your own opinion is hot and it’s the ultimate ‘in’ ⭐️

ins —

• nonverbal time 8-10pm - when my nightlight is on and my book is in my hand, respectfully, don’t talk to me

• butter yellow, navy blue, chocolate brown, dark plum, dark green - i’m branching out of my all-black everything lifestyle

  

• activity-based hang outs - ‘im down for whatever’ and ‘let’s go with the flow’ are fighting words to me

• long form video content

• outfit repeating - especially with the nonstop trends, i’ve been trying to invest in more staple pieces that i will wear on a regular basis

  

• cottage cheese - we got protein goals to hit girl!

• bidding on ebay - i bid on my first ebay find last week and it was exhilarating when i won! overall, secondhand shopping is always ‘in’

• jawline as an accessory - i like to call my jawline an accessory so i can remember to gua sha everyday

  

• telling my dishes it’s bath time to romanticize doing the dishes

• jeans and a white/black t-shirt - basics never fail!

• audio messages - please send me the lore via audio message like a podcast

• saying ‘123 eyes on me’ when my friends aren’t paying attention to me (i’m a leo)

• intentional clutter - makes my space more cozy and lived-in

  

• solo dates - huge believer that doing things alone makes you a better partner, friend, person

• boundaries - be forthright and establish boundaries

• chunky/statement accessories

  

• journaling

  

outs —

• excessive screen time - pick up a book please 🙏🏽

  

• being late - tardiness is literally the most unattractive trait im sorry

• imposter syndrome

• binge watching shows (guilty)

• phone before bed (guilty)

• saving a cute outfit for a special occasion

• millenial grey, beige or all white for home decor

• being nonchalant - show people you care!

• snoozing your alarm

• boring wellness podcasts

  

• waiting for the perfect scenario to start something

• asking for other people’s opinion - go with your gut or just ask the closest people to you!
