The 40-year-old crisis or the revenge against shame?

The article reflects on the author's personal experience with fashion choices over time, drawing parallels between past societal norms and present-day decisions. The author recalls a documentary where a woman criticized the uniformity of blue-gray clothing in Spain during the 1970s, which resonates with their own preference for muted, understated styles. They describe their wardrobe as consisting mainly of navy, gray, black, and olive green, aligning with the concept of 'normcore'—a style that emphasizes blending in rather than standing out. Despite this, the author decides to dye their hair platinum blonde, suggesting a shift in self-expression or a desire to break from established patterns. The piece serves as a personal meditation on identity, conformity, and the evolving nature of individuality.
