your body image

A quick post today as I am out all day shopping and doing research. Will have lots to report tomorrow!

In light of all the 16-year models that grace our fashion magazines and celebrities bowing to the plastic surgeons out there (eg Ashley Simpson’s nose!), I think we need a reminder about our body image .

99% of the women I have worked with (both large and small) hate something about their bodies. They focus on one body part, like their hips, and don’t take into consideration their entire silhouette. The female body is absolutely gorgeous. If you stand in front of a mirror and look at your entire body, not your individual parts, you will see and appreciate how all your curves (and bumps & lumps!) create a beautiful silhouette.

I’ve noticed that when women understand what silhouette they have (hourglass, triangle, inverted triangle, rectangle) and how to dress it, their body image soars. Learn what works and what doesn’t work for your silhouette and you’ll feel more in control about how you feel about yourself. Including our “friend”, Bobby Trendy.
