Steffany, this is brilliantly chaotic.

The entire piece written from the perspective of clearance bin fashion items trying to convince you they'll change your life? Genius.

"We're ugly cute, we're so wrong we're right. We're 'might come in handy for a costume party'."

I'm 19, building a newsletter from scratch, and this somehow applies to creating too.

Every weird idea you almost publish. Every Note that feels too personal. Every blog post that doesn't fit the "strategy."

Those are the questionable impulse items of content creation. They don't fit the formula. They're not optimized. They might flop completely.

But they're also the ones that make your work feel human instead of generic.

"Do you know what goes with gray t-shirts and jeans? Despair!"

That line made me laugh out loud. The entire piece has that energy — ridiculous premise executed perfectly.

Also: "Helena Bonham Carter is secretly your fashion icon" — if this isn't already a personality type, it should be.

Really enjoyed this. Thanks for the chaos. 🙏

10% off isn't how they get me, the ads stalking me for the next few weeks everywhere I go do.

Fun stuff. Never let me say that life is boring.

I checked my official auto-biography and it appears I haven’t been a member of Destiny’s Child yet. Clearly some work to do.
