Styling it up!

I will probably get hate mail for this post, but hey, whatever rocks your boat :3

Okay, so I do watch the style network but this is a recent turn of events. Dad got us DSTV last year for Christmas and we've had a lot more variety in our viewing choices. One show I like is "How do I look" which is hosted by the very lovely Jeanie Mai.

I like this show especially because unlike the others, it doesn't just deal with one's outer look. It seeks to solve the inner problems leading up to that outer look and since that's up my alley, I have been learning a lot in line with my fashion choices and stuff.

I'll tell you now, I'm no size zero but people seem to have the inane need to keep pointing that out. Of course I didn't look in a mirror this last decade and I have no idea how big I am. Please tell me as insensitively as possible how my bum is so big it could crush a forklift (-.-)

I know there are jerks in this world and there are nice people too, but I'll tell you now, weight is ALWAYS a sore subject and it should not be brought up where possible. I'm not as big as all that but when you're made to feel like an elephant all the time, it does get to a certain level where you're not sure whether to hit the person talking upside the head or strip and let them get used to it...

Well, this show as well as Jeanie's advice on fashion has given me a new perspective on the way that I dress. Fashion does not belong only to the skinny and no more will I suffer under the plight of frumpy clothes and way too big dresses. I don't entirely understand why after you pass a certain size of body, the clothing options stand somewhere between tent and bed sheet. It;s rather insensitive to think we don't want to look good because we're not small. Well, the weight isn't just going to magically disappear so what do I wear until then? I mean, really...

Another site I like is the Girls With Curves website. Their tag line is "Sexy is not a Size."

I understand where they're coming from and the accompanying images will show you that indeed, sexy is not a size. I do believe that now and anyone who mentions my weight in a derogatory way (who is not my doctor or physical trainer - the latter of who I do not have anyway) is gonna get an earful from me!

Well, enough about my ranting. The point is that I'm more confident about myself and I can see how I can get more comfortable with who I am and what I have. I'm gonna show it off too! Look out world, I'm a big woman and I take up space so you'd better move aside! I'm coming to get ya!

Bunny Out (:3
