Are You Fixated with that Thigh Gap?

I have a question for you.  Are you letting the way your body looks, or the shape you are in, stop you from being who you are?  Do you wear whatever you want to in spite of what everyone else may think?  Do you wear leggings, skinny jeans, and any figure hugging style?  Or do you avoid them because you feel your thighs are too large and you can't bear to see them in fitted clothing styles?  

Don't let that thigh gap hold you back!  You can wear whatever you want as long as you are comfortable with yourself.  Being comfortable leads to being very confident.  To have that type of confidence you must love yourself freely without fault.



Whether we like to acknowledge it or not, chafing will happen for most people.  It is a reality and nothing to be ashamed of.  Our bodies are the way they are, and unless you are going to have plastic surgery to change the look and/or shape of your body, it is a natural occurrence.  Utilizing the right body or shape wear, or shorts worn with your clothing can and will make this more comfortable for you.  Also, by exercising and getting more toned, your excessive chafing can become a thing of the past!


I have three words for you curvy divas.  Love. Your. Curves.  You have to love yourself first; love who you are; and then you will come to appreciate your body even more.  Are you going to always like the way you look?  No.  The reality is that unless you are a continuously optimistic person who doesn't give two-cents about what others say or think about you, in life you will continue to have those moments of not being too happy with yourself.  It doesn't help when we are bombarded by The Media and there are photos of super fit and trim people in magazines and everywhere.  Most times the images of models and celebrities are photo shopped, don't forget that. The thigh gap you see may not be real after all!  Learn to love your curves because they are in all the right places!


A bit of news for you curvy divas, while some women are obsessed with it, most men don't seem to care:   http://www.buzzfeed.com/lindabarsi/men-say-what-they-secretly-think-about-thigh-gaps#.xl2qLWBXQ

Curvy Looks: What I Wore In a Week

I like reviewing my Style-looks to see how my fashion has progressed, what clothing I intend to keep during my #Showmeyourcloset make over (more on this soon) and also just in case I have to re-think my style strategy when in work-mode. There are good days when my looks are on pointe, and those moments when I wonder what the heck was I thinking with a look that I wore! That may have happened to you as well at times curvy divas?! You know, when the clothing you wore makes you go...WTF?!  This was not how I envisioned this look. I can't wait to get home to take it off!lol! Been there, done that so many times! haha

Vintage Vogue

In March of 2012 before I decided to create this blog, I shared my love for Vogue magazine on my d-foreverserenity blog with the article I am super-imposing below. I have this "thing" for magazines. I won't say obsession...I love the glossy pages, the colors, and usually read them from cover to cover....! I had so many magazines piled up, I had to get rid of them...and yes, regretted it the minute I did! Anyway, I'm so glad there are online choices now!!!! Takes up less place in my bedroom!lol! I have saved some of my favorite issues, and shared some style inspiration and observation below. These were my  favorite looks from a  Vogue  magazine issue from August 2006 , six years ago in the past, I know, but I have tons of mags and I love  flipping  through the pages!  These  looks are so fresh today !!  Vogue  featured the color combination of  "The  Red  is the new Black" - red being the new black at the time!
