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

Found: The TShirt Dress

I found myself at the Mall of Millenia, a high-end mall the other day, Amanda and I went on a little adventure at which I was very excited. This mall is a bit farther away from us so we don't get there as often. It was about time I visited H&M...oh my love for that store has increased!!!  While I was there, I wanted to grab a handful of clothing and run to the fitting room, but I had a hard time finding my size.  Where were the larger sizes for us curvy girls??!!  I thought there was a sectioned for plus size-didn't see if one and couldn't find sizes for me. Jersey Maxi Dress w/raw edges at arms & slit It was a busy place so I couldn't ask anyone who worked there (I saw so few employees), but the store was pretty busy... however after looking around, I saw a dress I liked, a large was the largest size, I picked one in each color, a black and a grey;  it was a tee-shirt style, cotton-jersey material; with a round neckline and a slit that had me won...
