Hey curvy girls all over the world,
As I told you before, we have been getting lots of submissions for Stylish Curves of the day. Thanks so much. Now, on with today’s Stylish Curvy girl. Check out Jen and how she embraces her curves:
“Contrary to popular belief, I began loving my body after I gained weight. I was considered “average” while growing up, but I was constantly obsessed with looking “fat” and wanting to lose weight.
I hated shopping because nothing “fit” and I was self conscious about how I looked both clothed and naked. I couldn’t name one part of my body that I appreciated, and it actually contributed to me going into a deep depression.
Ironically, once I gained a little weight, and, most importantly, once I found the Fatshion community, I began to embrace my “curves” and began to enjoy dressing up to accentuate my best features. It has become a game to shop and try on clothes and, unlike before, boy is it fun!
My style is more classic than hardcore trendy. : like to stick to those basics that will remain season after season. However I like my basics to still have a bit of a twist such as a leopard print sheath dress or a snake skin pencil skirt.
One fashion tip that I would give other curvy ladies (and women in general), is to appreciate what you’ve got: Embrace it, love it and enjoy it. Listen with love and gratitude to your body’s message to you, it will help you learn about yourself and others.
I’ve learned more about myself, (and other people) over the last three years that I’ve been considered plus size, than I’ve learned over 10 adult years of being considered “thin”. It is truly amazing to be curvy and I
embrace it all the way.
