For long time, okay until the 16th of may I believed it best to avoid owning white clothing. I do have a few whites to go with some of my more colorful prints but normally I avoid this color. The problem with white is that it tends to get quite dirty and you can see the dirty. I hate that.
Strange thing to live by right? So what changed that? White party! Here on the island, every Friday they have a white theme party. This means you have to wear something white in order to maximise your partying experience at Babuna Bar, which is where this party is hosted.
The first time I got away by wearing just a white top, but upon arriving there I realised all white works out even better. This is because of the flashy, colorful and psychedelic lighting at the bar. So this lighting makes all things white glow. Some of my later investigations of the bar interiors indicated that black tubelights had a hand in this. I cannot explain the science of this phenomenon right now, perhaps in a later post.
One Friday later, lesson learnt. I borrowed all white from a friend/colleague (this is the profile for everyone on this island you see)- skirt and top for the event! It was perfect. As I put on the garments it dawned upon me how wonderful this shade looks. Also my paranoia was silly. All clothes can get dirty, not just white and lighter shades can also show evidence of stains. Pfft!
With each step and later movement on the dance floor I gained confidence in wearing white. So you see every wardrobe needs white.
You need to let go of that one silly fear you often try to pass off as OCD behaviour. The more inhibitions and fears you have the more you loose out on. I rest my case here. The flipside of this argument, I will leave it for you to contemplate and prepare for the next time you happen to strike a conversation with me.
