Bring cloaks back in fasion
Please, for the love of anything Holy, why did we, as a society, let cloaks go out of fashion? They are a PEAK fashion statement and will make anyone feel as if they are the protagonist in any period RPG. I want the wind to ripple through my cape as I take on a cold a winter’s day, so instead of feeling like I am going to work, I feel as if I am about to endeavour on a world-saving quest to return an ancient artefact to its rightful place. They have pockets and hoods and are basically the OG Oodie. A blanket on the go. Feeling bloated? No worries! You have a cloak. You’re cold? No worries!! Cloak!! You have a more than necessary amount of trinkets that you have found and gathered on your commute home? No worries!! CLOAK WITH MANY INTERIOR POCKETS!! (Acceptably accessorise with woven baskets and glass vials attached to your hip + a slay pair of leather boots) Anyways, thanks for coming to my TEDTalk

you reminded me of a friend I had at uni who would always wear a green cloak. His aura was immense.

jilly he fully dressed medieval, like baggy trousers held up by a rope too, as well as one of those old ruffled white shirts. He was great and pulled it off well.

cloaks
I don't have one, but I often think about how this is a major untapped trend in modern fashion, especially while reading books (everything from tolstoy to fantasy novels) where they feature heavily. This winter has been really warm (besides those like two freezing sub-zero weeks). Therefore, I don't want to always wear a coat, but I also don't want to worry about lugging around a coat that I'm not actively wearing. Cloaks are the perfect solution. Bundle up when you need to, let it hang loosely from around your neck when you don't. Let's bring back and normalize cloaks.

Ponchos
ponchos are very comfortable, very warm, and can be very fashionable as well. We should wear them more often!

accepting that you’re not trendy and cool
tried reading dante alighieri’s inferno. key emphasis on tried. i got bored and realised a story written in poem form is not my typa beat. i tried because it seemed like what all the indie hipsters who are well versed would read, and that i would look cool and niche—but it just cost me $25. i prefer crazy detailed paragraphs rather than a line by line story. anyways

stop saying “i’m sick”!!
saying “i’m sick” when you’re sick is boring. instead, here are some more funky fresh and cool ways to disclose that your immune system has been highjacked (it’s time to revive these sayings from the dead!): “i am indisposed” “i am taken ill” “i am feeling out of sorts” “i am suffering from a bilious attack” “i have been seized by an ague” “i am afflicted with a malaise” “i have taken to my bed” “the vapours have overcome me” “i have a touch of the influenza” “the rheumatism plagues me” “i am laid low with a fever” “i am afflicted with a troublesome ailment” you’re welcome
