In the latest update of “random holidays no one ever wanted to exist,” today is National Send a Nude Day—if you believe Twitter trends.

While there’s not necessarily anything wrong with taking nude pictures—live your best life, even if it’s best lived naked!—the potentially pressuring hashtag and some of the responses to it are enough to make anyone a little queasy.

Follow Motto on Facebook.

Still, you can celebrate this “holiday” in many artful ways. We’re here to help with some ideas.

  • Your bare arm (it’s 65 degrees outside!)
  • The snagged pair of nude hose that your mom made you buy for your last job interview
  • Tom Ford lipstick in “Sable Smoke”
  • Your still-dry-and-cracked-from-winter elbow (sexy!)
  • Essie in “ballet slippers”
  • A Naked mole rat (yup, it’s real, and it’s a mammal)
  • A Sphynx cat
  • An uncooked whole chicken
  • A zoomed-in shot of your forehead—bonus points if you’re having a stress-related breakout
  • Urban Decay Naked eyeshadow palette
  • Botticelli’s The Birth of Venus

    • We’ll see you at the next made-up holiday (our calendars are looking at you, National Burger Day).
