The awakening

I thought the weather was starting to warm up until we were hit with a blizzard and ice rain today. I bought this dress a couple weeks ago with my friends from university when they were visiting my hometown. At first I was very hesitant about buying it; it does show quite a lot of skin and I'm not exactly the thinnest girl out there. After considering it and staring at myself in the mirror for ages, I did decide to get it.

Just because you're not stick thin doesn't mean you can't wear the exact same styles. Whether you're a size two, twelve, or twenty-two, you can rock short shorts or a cut-out dress, because what shows more than the garment on your body is your confidence radiating out of you. No matter what size you are, you shouldn't be ashamed of wearing something you may think "only a skinny girl can wear." That's a load of bullshit. We can all wear the same things, because we're all beautiful.

You're absolutely right. There aren't styles "just for skinny girls." Style is for everyone, no matter their size. You look beautiful! :)

Purple lipstick doesn't work on anyone, not even on pretty girls.
