Don't Dress to Impress, Dress for Your Body Type!

Scarlette,
You make a good point. However, I never disclose my deodorant or lotion information. I have my private collection that I have always used. I guess its a matter of personal preference if you will. Honestly, I have never really placed that much thought into the fragrances that these products have. It just became a habit because I stick with the products that I feel work best for me.
Now that you have referred to me as a "parfait" I am going to take my choices into consideration. I do not wish to smell like a pudding, apple pie, or any dessert of that nature. It's hard enough to follow my diet as it is!

However, my issue is not with the scents that people chose. I have bigger concerns. I would like to place the focus on how to educate people that "fabulous" is not only a frame of mind but it is also achieved by simply loving oneself. The most important aspect is being savvy about dressing for your body type.
What is with all of these poor souls who simply cannot dress themselves? Honestly Scarlette, have you seen these oblivious fools meandering around in public? Everywhere I go I see an abundance of walking catastrophes. They consist of both pattern and color combinations that could stop traffic. And some of the clothing nowadays. People, if its stretchy, bright colored and not meant for the gym, set it down and RUN away.

We need to reach out to people to inform them. It could just be a nice way to show them that they are not alone. The best part is there are very simple solutions to working toward an exterior fabulousness! Of course there will always be exceptions and that is something that we must be appreciative of (it just ensures the fact that 'What not to wear' will always be on television).
There is a vast majority of people who are simply, well let's put it lightly, clueless! And I know that we all don't possess a running list of designer names in our closets but for heaven's sake some fabrics should not be worn on most body types (I'm shuddering as I write this).

Ladies we are all beautiful. We need to embrace this! Large hips, big butt, plump thighs, all of the hills and valleys of our physiques that we despise comprise the being that make each and every one of us unique. These are our curves! Women are supposed to be curvy and it's so easy to dress your curves. Let's say it together "I am curvy, I am beautiful, and dammit I love to look at myself!"

I know that everyone has stood before his/her mirror and made a thorough evaluation of every single flaw. We ARE human and flaws make us beautiful!
So the next time you stand in the mirror do yourself a favor. Focus on what physical aspects define you, yes EVERY curve. Say to yourself at least 5 times in a row each day "I think that I am beautiful" and it will positively effect your outlook, I promise. People we need to love who we are both inside and out. This is the first step to Fabulous, own it!

Now, for those of us who are a little clueless, it's springtime. Stop wearing the closed toe shoes! You need to bite the bullet and get a pedicure because frankly it's time to let the "little piggies" come out to play. I would suggest something that is not too bold for spring. Maybe nice pinks, corals or a bright magenta (save the bold reds for late summer). Its that time of year to feel fresh and warm up for summer. So after a good day of spring cleaning go ahead, get something fun to flaunt when you break out your first pair of sandals from the back of your closet.
Now for those of you who feel too pale and still need to ween yourself off of the pantie hose. I'm just going to say this, you have to give them up now. Just do it! Think of a band aid. It's going to be so much more painful to remove it slow. Take a deep breath and throw the damned things away. Let your skin breathe!

There, I feel better now. *sigh*

-Bianca
