Makeup Can Only Hide So Much

buying clothes

I got up this morning feeling awful, it was the weekend so I was just going to sleep in or so I thought. My mom came into the room and told me to get up and get dressed. I asked her why and she responded: "Were going clothes shopping!" 

"I moaned whyyyyyy  I already have enough clothes ."

"No, you don't you've been wearing jeans to school when it's 80 degrees outside. YOU NEED SUMMER CLOTHES!"

She was right, I did need summer clothes I had been wearing ripped jeans to school hoping that the holes would provide some sort of relief to the hot sun, but I refused to tell my mom because hated trying on clothes. Everything about it is terrible you have to go into a tiny stall sit on a bench that a hundred other people have already sat on. Take off your clothes and put on some clothes that some thirty-year-old who smells like vanilla and broken dreams tried on and didn't buy it because it's three sizes too small. The worst part of all isn't even the things I just named it's much worse than that, it's coming to the store with your mom picking out clothes and then seeing someone you know. You may be thinking that's not that bad but you're probably thinking of seeing your friend or someone from your class but what I consider my friends are people who if you mess up once they will taunt you mercilessly. Once I wore a hoodie from Walmart to a track meet and they teased me about it for a week. Anyway, my mom pulled me out of bed and forced me to get dressed and drove me to the nearest clothing store. Once we got there my mom was picking up the ugliest pieces of clothing 

"Sweetie why don't you try on this?" As she pulled out a bright orange jumper. 

"That's the ugliest thing I've ever seen," I exclaimed. 

 "Oh come on it has pleated sleeves!"

"Exactly." 

When I finally got past my mom and all of her interesting clothing choices I went into the change room. I always hate going into a change room with no hooks to hang clothes, so you have to put them on the dirty bench. After I tried on all the clothes that I liked and showed my mom, I stepped out to put all the clothes in the shopping cart then I stopped dead in my tracks.
