to be out of one's element
to feel uncomfortable or out of place in a particular situation or environment
What's the situation?
You know that feeling when you walk into a super fancy boutique, and all the clothes have astronomical prices, and suddenly your casual jeans feel like a costume? That's when you're **out of your element**! It's perfect for describing situations where you feel a bit awkward or don't quite belong, especially when you're shopping in an unfamiliar or overly upscale place. ✨
