In this entry, The Nail Tech who spends her days helping women adorn themselves turns the gaze inward — toward a single dress that unsettled her more than it ever adorned her.

A navy constellation-print dress becomes the portal:
a garment she loved in essence but couldn’t inhabit in body.

What unfolds in therapy is not a conversation about fabric,
but about what clothing reveals —
vulnerability, femininity, exposure, the places where the psyche hesitates.

This entry explores the quiet tension between:
the woman who delights in glamour, colour, embellishment,
and the woman whose body flinches at the rawness a dress can summon.

It’s a meditation on thresholds, embodiment,
and how even a piece of clothing can become a mythic mirror —
inviting us to meet the parts of ourselves we’re not yet fully wearing.
