Whenever I finish a DIY, I always get asked the same questions. Kalita, how are you gonna sit? How are you gonna eat? How are you gonna go to the bathroom? Guys, I need you to understand that being comfortable and tier practicality of rank of an outfit is the last thing that I think of when I do these DIYs. As long as I look cute, that is all that matters. All those other problems I will deal with later.
