I Wore This Ridiculous Wig To Avoid People In Public And It Actually Worked

No eye contact, no problem.

Taylor Miller, Andrew Richard / BuzzFeed

I'm Augusta. Generally I'm a friendly person, but living in New York for seven years has made me completely averse to eye contact — and basically all human contact — with strangers.

Once you've accidentally looked into the eyes of a homeless man pooping in a box, you never want to take a chance on that again.

Taylor Miller, Andrew Richard / BuzzFeed

It's not about being rude. It's about feeling completely awkward and uncomfortable with the idea of connecting with strangers past a cursory smile.

I Tried To Dress Like Garbage On Purpose And This Is What Happened

I turned my own closet against me.

Taylor Miller / Jenny Chang / BuzzFeed

I'm Joanna, and this is how I dress on an average day.

I usually try, at least a little, to look good. But I wear a lot of black, and lately I've felt like I'm in kind of a style rut. My go-to look lately is often a one-size-fits-all sweatshirt (And no pants. JK, I pair it with leggings). But when I'm not wearing that, I'm trying. Sometimes I put on an outfit and think, "No, this doesn't work," and I change. That's effort. That's work. Getting dressed feels like work, and I wish it didn't.

When I was in high school, I would pop a Britney Spears album into my hefty CD alarm clock and gleefully plan out my outfits for the week, dancing on my bed when my bright pink Gap sweater and Abercrombie jeans combination worked particularly well. That joy is gone.

In an attempt to bring it back, I decided to take my personal standard of what is acceptable to wear in public and light it on fire. What if I tried to dress as poorly as possible? I wondered how people would react and how I would feel if, instead of playing it safe each day, I tried to mash together a fashion nightmare. Would I be mocked? Would I feel shame? Would anyone even notice?

First I researched fashion "don'ts" and tried to incorporate them into my outfit every day. And if I felt like I had an item of clothing that I couldn't really "pull off" and felt nervous wearing, I made sure to wear it.

Also, just a note: "I'm going to dress badly on purpose; I might incorporate some of your clothes" is, as it turns out, a rude thing to say to your boyfriend. Oh well!

Instagram: @jbornz

The Don'ts
* Hat I'm not sure I can "pull off"
* Pajamas outside the house
* Wrinkled top
* Socks with sandals
* Junky old Birkenstocks

Most people had no idea I was trying to dress poorly, or that I was dressing differently at all. This really hurt my feelings because I was wearing socks with sandals to the office. Though, I will say, I get now why people wear socks with sandals. It feels amazing.

I got a lot of compliments on this outfit, mostly for the doughnut pajamas my mom bought me from Target. One person said I looked "interesting," which is the kind of veiled slam I was expecting.

15 Striking Blackout Tattoos That Almost Look Unreal

Inkredible.

Blackout tattoos involve tattooing large areas of the body in ~solid~ black ink.

Blackout tattoos involve tattooing large areas of the body in ~solid~ black ink.

"It takes a lot of patience and technical skills to pack solid black," Chester Lee, a 29-year-old tattoo artist at Oracle Tattoo in Singapore, told BuzzFeed. The scalloped chest piece above took Lee roughly 20 hours to complete.

The look is inspired by neo-tribal tattoos, which evolved from ancient sacred tribal markings, according to Lee.

Do You Sleep In Your Bra?

Let's get to the bottom of this.

When you were younger, you probably heard someone say: "You're not supposed to sleep in your bra! It's bad for you."

I Wore Bold Lipsticks For A Week And You Can Too

As a woman of color, I've found a lot of conflicting opinions as to what shades "work" for me. But I made them all work for a week.

Jenny Chang for BuzzFeed

Hey guys, Nina here. I love playing with makeup (even if I'm not super great at it) but there's one thing I've always stayed away from: lipstick. It freaks me out.
