A real American tragedy occured today… My Sparkle & Fade smiling ice cream cone tank got tangled in the dryer and a strap broke. Why is this a tragedy? Because it’s a freaking smiling ice cream cone tank top!!! I know it might seem a little crazy, but it was really sentimental to me; I’ve had it since I was a junior in high school- back before I realized how grossly overpriced Urban Outfitters is. I wore this tank when I got my first tattoo, to my first day of college, under my scrubs on my first day at IMAj, on THREE first dates, one job interview (it was under a blazer, i swear); it was what I changed into after I got my boobs done, and I was wearing it when I got my criminal speeding ticket 2 years ago. It’s the only item in my closet I was unwilling to loan out, and it’s survived over 6 massive closet purges. I’m not going to try to fix it, because- let’s be honest, it’s ill-fitting and has smiling ice cream cones on it, but it’s a tragedy nonetheless. RIP, smiling ice cream tank.
