I only watched the first season of The Handmaid’s Tale when it first came out, and I can’t decide whether my decision to watch the rest was bad or good, because this is really resonating.
In case you missed it, I posted a 90s minimalist wardrobe yesterday and a secondhand finds earlier in the week.
My purchase this week was the Adidas Taekwondo sneakers from yesterday’s post.
I know I said that I spent my January budget but I returned something and bought the shoes instead which was a good choice.
Because they arrived today and they are pretty badass.
I love the no laces, slip-on style, because in the spring and summer, I often don’t really feel like doing up shoelaces.
Anyway, back to The Handmaid’s Tale. Shit is starting to get really good. I love a good woman led revolution.
*I want to note that this dress in the roundup is semi-sheer. I visualize wearing it over a slip dress, or jeans/trousers and a tank or cami. It would be such a statement.
