Friends, I hope you’re taking care of yourselves as best you can. I hope you’re finding ways to cope with the onslaught of bad news and bad opinions that the world is serving up these days. Lately I’ve been finding it calming to donate money to good causes (like the Black Youth Project and Critical Resistance and the Center for Transgender Equality) whenever I’m overcome with a sense of “?!?!???!?” and hopefully that helps the folks it goes to. But when I’m lying in the dark at night, still seized with overwhelming worries about our world and what’s to become of it, I’ve been finding it weirdly steadying to think about… places I want to go when they reopen, and what I would wear.
In that spirit, here are 5 outfits I put together for various situations I hope or foresee myself getting into when the world opens its doors again. They’re full of extravagant items from UrStyle that make me smile even if they’d make my wallet cringe. I hope these inspire you to think about where you’d like to go, when you’re able, and what celebratory ensemble you’ll throw together for the occasion.
