High Maintenance

I want a high maintenance life. I know that being high maintenance is generally frowned upon, but I feel like there's something incredibly glamorous about it. I don't necessarily want to be high maintenance in an "I can't get dirty or leave the house without makeup ever" kind of way, but I think there's something incredibly appealing about the idea. I want to always have plans, to wear heels every day, to have an excuse wear gowns on a regular basis. 

Part of the appeal to me is that girls with these kind of lives seem so put together. I feel like they've perfected the art of fake it 'til you make it. Even if their life isn't always perfect, they make it seem like it is. And, in the end, it ends up becoming something pretty damn awesome.

So no, I can't walk in heels very well, I never wear makeup, and my social life is pretty much non-existent. While I probably won't have an excuse to wear designer gowns on a regular basis (or the money to afford it), that doesn't mean that my life can't be glamorous in its own way. And who knows, maybe one day heels will be my go-to shoes, I'll rock a red lip everyday, and my social calendar will be full with plans for girls' nights out, cocktail parties, and Sunday brunches.
