AFTERPAD

I’d love to study in the UK and work there eventually. But let’s be real—I don’t have the cash for tuition, housing, or any of that. Sure, there are programs that help with moving, getting into schools, or getting a spot in a dorm, but even with all that, it feels way too complicated.

If I see something beautiful that I think would fit into my wardrobe, I don’t see a reason to limit myself—assuming I can afford it. But I always think long and hard before buying, to ensure the purchase makes sense. My friend, on the other hand, buys anything she finds beautiful and cool. She takes this approach with accessories too, including some she found here. She told me she bought gloves from Zhilyova and a few other accessories the moment she visited their website. And honestly, you can’t argue with her because these items genuinely look ultra-unique. But I wouldn’t have the courage or decisiveness for that.
