Rebellion might sound a bit dramatic, probably a lot more dramatic than the final design of the earrings I decided to get -mainly from Mango– with the simple purpose of dissimulate the width of my face and bring the lighting that is missing when I have no time to do my make-up. So, don’t expect palm trees or piñatas, as much as I would love to be just a bit more adventurous, my rebellion isn’t an anarchy with myself.

Even so, this exercise is enough to push myself on this new year of my life to try out new things, in small bites or sample size format just to realise what I’ve been missing. Trying out things is free, but having the balls to actually wear them in your daily life requires an investment of rebellion against your own rules.
