I am now struggling with not only negative thoughts about my body, but also about my age. ("Am I too old to pull this skirt off?"). I went ahead and bought it because I LOVED it. I tried it on today and it really looks pretty good!! I am still stressing the age idea in relation to it. Anyhow, I found your blog this evening and I am inspired. Thank you for putting yourself out there and being a role model in the truest since of the word!! Color me inspired. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-79416619638935049142013-05-03T10:58:07.470-07:002013-05-03T10:58:07.470-07:00I like your blog. So let's get two things out ...I like your blog. So let's get two things out of the way...I'm not fat but I do break rules. OFTEN. I like that you own your look. Those who cannot pull of unique styles fail because they don't believe in their own image, not because of their body type, age or conventional lack of beauty. Plus, I've noticed when you own your look people feel free to blurt out their opinions, whether good or bad. When I hear "I'd never wear those" or "That's different" or even "I don't like it"...clearly unsolicited opinions, I know it's working. NO one says that to a girl that's not wearing thick skin, so keep on rockin' on.

I wore it briefly last Thanksgiving and my Dad gave me crap over it. It doesn't fit now, but that was the only time I ever wore it and that is a damn tragedy!

Its a hard adjustment, I struggle with mine, and the outline of my hips that goes out (hips), then in (very top of leg) then out again around my saddle bags. Plus one of my saddle bags is bigger because of a car accident. <br /><br />But once you keep pushing your boundaries, including sharing "unflattering" pictures, you realise that a) we all still think you look goddamn hot, and inspirational, but it will just free you up so much internally. <br /><br />I often wish my friends (most of whom are skinny) could embark on a body acceptance path, because it just feels AMAZING. Its a tough road, full of lumps and bums (pun definitely intended ;-) ) but worth every second of time invested. xxAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03311092515453106381noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-20838333873441569122013-01-06T21:53:04.492-08:002013-01-06T21:53:04.492-08:00Me too Brooke;) I still have super bad days, but t...Me too Brooke;) I still have super bad days, but theyre lessening...Jes The Militant Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14842115723190733209noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-2338754657480229202013-01-06T21:52:30.787-08:002013-01-06T21:52:30.787-08:00I love the missions here.

I'd totally rock that! <br /><br />I know what you mean about finding something you love on the rack and then trying it on and then having that wave of self-doubt when you realize it isn't "flattering" (aka slimming). I don't know how many times I leave stores discouraged and upset because of this... Though for me, it's usually shirts that are fitted up top that cause me the issue, and sadly an ill-fitting top that my boobs are decidedly displaying well below the fitted part they're supposed to fit in is something I can't abide. <br /><br />Nikkianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08769877554857471397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-48410162143037163762013-01-06T13:54:23.499-08:002013-01-06T13:54:23.499-08:00I NEED one of those fat angels!I NEED one of those fat angels!Kendallhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14218940794462057900noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-41668329379425494122013-01-06T12:11:10.988-08:002013-01-06T12:11:10.988-08:00I love your attitude to life xxx people should car...I love your attitude to life xxx people should care less and be more like you xxx<br />please stop by my blog:<br />http://rainingcakeandcookies.blogspot.co.uk/Alexhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09564101083682199986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4055363314023822240.post-27446056796014638842013-01-06T12:08:34.283-08:002013-01-06T12:08:34.283-08:00We all live for Az winters:)We all live for Az winters:)Jes The Militant Bakerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14842115723190733209noreply@blogger.com
