Many countries are currently On lockdown, isolation, quarantine, stay home orders, or whatever else you want to call it. That means we’re not leaving our houses unless it’s for food, medicine, or some exercise. And that means most of us have been in our pajamas or sweat pants for weeks.
Makeup… nope. Nice clothes… nope. Haven’t seen them in weeks.
But sometimes it’s nice to get dressed up just because. Even if we have nowhere to go. In Australia, people are making an affair of throwing out their garbage. They’re getting all dressed up just to throw out some trash and it is AMAZING in the most extra way. There’s an entire Facebook page dedicated to these photos and now people all over the world are joining in on the fun.
Here are 50 photos of Australians being extra and dressing up to take out their trash during quarantine:
