Specta

hi specta! it’s been a long time and i’m not sure if you even remember me, but i wanted to thank you for something you did around when we first talked in 2014.

you were talking about fashion in ipc and i mentioned something among the lines of, “i’d like to wear skirts, except they don’t look good on me” and you replied, “don’t be silly, there’s a skirt for everyone!” maybe you didn’t think much of it then, but your comment made me start researching skirts that night, and eventually i became confident enough to wear them in public. this was also the start of my passion for fashion! i had always casually liked it because of playing style savvy, but irl i had no confidence to wear anything outside of hoodies and jeans and plain shirts; now, i consider fashion probably my biggest or second biggest interest, and i almost exclusively wear skirts outdoors. the dreary and dull clothes that filled my closet were gradually replaced with clothes i sincerely looked forward to wearing every day, and i was voted best dressed in high school! and this is all because of some offhand comment you made five years ago. i’m not exaggerating when i say that that moment is probably the biggest impact on my life that something so small has made, and i am genuinely incredibly grateful for it. sorry if i bothered you and thank you for reading ❤️
