The first time I wore a mini dress after a long time. No jacket to cover up my arms, no leggings/pantyhose to distract attention from my legs... and I couldn't have felt better. Turns out making the decision to wear what makes you happy takes more courage than the actual act of wearing those clothes. Once you've won over yourself, you can stand up to most anything. Sad that we live in a world where such considerations have to be made, because winning over yourself doesn't mean that you've won the world over. And more often than not, you WILL have to stand up to something or the other. Courage my lovelies, for you didn't ask to battle, but battle you must- for freedom, for joy, for dignity. Fight, for you are not alone. #throwbackthursday #jigglyarms #dimpledthighs #beseen #fatandfabulous #fatfuckingpride #representationmatters #neveralone
