Actually, I don’t know that I have much to complain about right now. i am weary of the baby-pink lipstick everyone is wearing these days, which makes it look like they are mouthless mannequins.

I’m not sure those messages needed to be mixed in one outfit.
And then somehow — inexplicably — this outfit turned into, or ceded ground to, this one:
