Recently, I received an email from Brooke Barker sharing a delightful experience of a teenager complimenting her outfit. The title “Is this drippy” followed by “Is that even good” made me chuckle.
Have you had a teenager compliment your attire, shoes, hair, or lipstick lately? It may seem insignificant, but it’s a unique joy.
Brooke’s newsletter excerpt reads:
Niiiiiiice.
Eleven-year-old Anton, known for his killer style, described both outfits as “bus,” which is a good thing—not to be confused with “buns,” which is bad.
Do you remember the confidence of preteens/teenagers? I recall a summer day as a preteen, riding my bike in a new Hypercolor shirt, feeling guilty for looking so good and potentially making others feel inferior.
On another note, my friend’s daughter recently asked to try on my sunglasses, solidifying my decision never to take them off.
