I know I could probably be prettier if I made the effort.
I could probably be less frumpy, be more daring, make a statement (hopefully a good one) with what I'm wearing.
But that requires effort.
Wearing contacts for a day at uni is just not worth it.
I'm happy for you guys to see me in my hobo/grandpa jumpers.
Nice clothes are nice, but they're only nice because you get to wear them when you feel like dressing up, right?
You know how there are girls that always wear makeup, but you don't really notice it until one day they don't? Yeah you've been conditioned to appreciate them with makeup on. Truth is, when you know someone well and see them often, you either
a) think they're really pretty all the time or
b) don't even notice how they look anymore.
It's just one way our brains simplify all the information they receive.
If I wore makeup on a regular basis there would be too many days where I'd feel lazy and not wear it, so I'm conditioning you guys to see me without it (and you don't even notice I'm doing that). And hopefully you will be pleasantly surprise by how much improvement there can be when I do make the effort.
On the odd occasion when I want to feel pretty.
