girl I totally get creating an incentive but when does it stop being an incentive and start being toxic I just want my people to feel comfortable in the skin they are in even if they are working on it xx
Yessss! I love your advice because I haven't bought clothes for awhile now. Yelp waiting to loose those extra pounds. Guess what Sis, I gained even more so I do need help in finding clothes to dress my body now! Who knows when those extra pounds will leave me? I don't!🤣🤣🤣
I recently lost 75lbs, but my arms are flappy from loose skin. So "waiting to loose weight" doesnt solve everything. The insecurity is still there. I hate showing my arms. Luckily in Toronto (Canada)... we only 68° - 90°F degree weather for 3 months of the year. During summer months I always wear light windbreakers, white linen shirts or some floral flowy cover ups (i have so many)
Ooo, chile, lol! I can't believe how many plus-size RUclipsrs I see presenting themselves as size 20 when clearly they are a size 26 (or more). I'm like, sis come on now. You not foolin' nobody squeezing into that too small size 20 dress or even worse, pants/jeans! People really need to come correct and stop fronting!
Truth. I am going through and getting rid of my 8s and embracing the 10s, 12s, and the occasional 14 in my closet. IF I ever get back to that 8, I can rebuild my wardrobe and replace. In the meantime let someone else enjoy these things🤗
Wow I didn't know people threw clothes away like that. I always give my clothes away. Someone else can benefit from it and make it better than what I did.
I was married for a total of 26 years. During that time, I was only allowed to wear drab, baggy clothes. Now, I'm divorced and completely confused about what to wear. Thank you, you answered questions I was afraid to ask.
Take charge! Let NOBODY tell you what you should do or wear to be “right”. Take your time to find out who you are, and what you want in your life. You deserve it! All my very best wishes goes your way, Michelle 😍
Yesss. I am not waiting for the goal weight. I just went and got larger shirts and my mom called while I was out at the store. She said you shouldn’t buy more clothes just wait until you lose weight. Sooooo I am supposed to walk around with my stomach hanging out the bottom of my shirt, blouses tight over my breast all in the name of punishing myself? So mom you’re saying I should look sloppy and unpresentable because of ill fitting clothes? So that I will feel worse about myself. Um no ma’am. What were NOT going to do is be toxic to ourselves and abuse ourselves.
My secret to up and down weight is to rock a dress. If it's too big I belt. If I gain a little weight I rock a sweater over it. I also will wear a control bottom that is calf length. And most of my clothes are 3 season proof as much as possible 💕
I had 2 kids back to back. My husband is super skinny and never gains weight. He bought me whatever I wanted to eat when pregnant. The weight gain was cute when I was pregnant, but now they’re toddlers. I’m way bigger now. When you said “this is your permission”, I started bawling. Thank you so much for this video. I haven’t bought any new clothes since my baby shower with my first born. I’m going to get new clothes now, and embrace this body I now have. 🤍
Same here I had two kids back to back I went from a size 6 :( to a size 16 I'm down to a size 12 and my husband of course is skinny and super fit.( We used to workout together) I feel like a bag of potatoes don't like going out bc I'm constantly shying away bc of my weight. Thanks for this push I will start wearing whatever I want and feel confident in.
Wow it's like you lived my life. Super skinny husband. Gained weight during pregnancy. Had back to back pregnancies and gained more weight. Now I'm scared to buy new clothes. I live in leggings and oversized t shirts.
Better than tossing out, schedule a clothes swap with your friends. My bestie does this at the end of every year. We have so much fun trying on and styling outfits. Really economical too! Clothes, shoes, jewelry, outerwear, etc.
Ok great! Because this vid had been recommended to me for days but im not plus size, and I thought what's the point? But good to know I really enjoyed it!
“Stop wearing super tight clothes “. YES find your size ! That has been a game changer . I had 3 kids back to back . And my body has changed sooooo much . I had to find my right size and find clothes for my new body . Wearing my correct size has boosted SO much confidence!
Finally! Someone who’s body looks like mine. I’m over size 2 girls telling me how to style my plus size body! You’re so beautiful and stylish, thank you for making these videos.
for the longest time I never wore shorts outside. I have had enough. I am wearing booty shorts all summer long and errbody gonna have to deal with these jiggly thunder thighs!
A lot of plus size fashion is using models who still have thin waist or flatter tummy...i hv no waist whatsoever and my tummy is not flat 😩😩 i am up and down straight. But belts sometimes create a huge fupa😩 i may not techinally be plus size cause im a 12/14 but im very short lol so thanks for these tips.
I FEEL WHAT U MEAN WHEN IT CIMES TO PLUSSIZE MODELS NO FUPA EVERYBODY AINT TOP HEAVY WITH NO TUMMY OR TOP WITH FUPA. THERE'S 36B CUPS PLUSSIZE WITH A FUPA WE NEED MODELS IN ALL SHAPES/SIZES. 🙈🤗
I just found your channel and I absolutely adore you! You hands down body everything you put on and are a prime example that you don’t have to be a size 2 to be fashionable. I’m not plus size but I truly appreciate your platform. Now back to binge watching your videos 🤗
Natalie you are too kind Ive always believed this we make great style about style but it isn't! Women like you are vital to our community you are welcome here xx
A lot of people are a cup size larger than they realize. This makes a huge difference, no back bulge, no pain under the armpits, no double boob, I also felt more conservative because I knew I was covered. I'm only a C, but it made such a positive difference. I can only imagine what it would do for larger cups.
You had me at Rule #1! I have been a firm believer regarding proper bra fittings for YEARS! Just before my daughter started high school we both got properly sized and it. Was. Life-changing.
"Rock the body you have PROUDLY." How have I been on the planet 31 years and never heard this? Thank you, thank you, thank you for your content- your words lifted me out of a major body rut today!!!
I'm actually 48 and never had a bra fitting.. was always a bit embarrassed to ask for the help. Love the positive reinforcement in this video.. we have to get past this stuff!
The last tip. It may sound silly but I always liked my fits more when I tucked my top into my bottoms but I said I'd only wear it like that when I was a certain weight because my gut can't be out like that. I just did it one day despite my insecurities and I ain't mad at myself lol 💚
Yes, do an update on flattering silhouettes for each body type! Side note: you look amazing, and I just bought a hot pink version of the jacket you're wearing! ❤
Truer words have never been spoken. I am top heavy and have had bra fittings since middle school (I am 40 now). I am legit passionate about this. I took all my favorite girlfriends to my favorite boutique and got them all fitted for bras. You’d be shocked your REAL size and it makes a huge difference in your look. It elongates the body, and slenderizes. Do yourself the favor.
This has been helpful to boosting my confidence. I wear mostly baggy clothes and I wear them until they wear out. I hate shopping because it always makes me feel terrible about myself. Often times when I'm around other people, I'm thinking "I'm so sorry you have to see me" when I'm having conversations. This has helped me gain a bit of confidence to go out and look for the things I want to wear. I'm in art school, I don't think they're gonna mind me having fun with my appearance.
The bra thing is the truth. A few years ago I started going to a specialty bra store. I pay more money for them now but what a world of difference it has made.
@@MsBluekittykat The bra store I usually go to is local to me. But you can try HerRoom.com They have a ton of bras in lots of sizes and different brands. There is also a chat feature I believe so you can ask questions and get suggestions as you browse. I recently bought several bras by a brand called elomi. Very happy with my purchase.
Ditto to my sis Elomi makes great bras for fuller busts my virtual fitting was with them! If you have a fuller bust a properly fitted bra is game changing!
This is so helpful! I gained over 50 lbs during the quarantine and I found myself trying so hard to rock the clothes that fit before. Needless to say, I looked a mess everyday for the last four months. I literally made each of these mistakes and had to accept that I have to buy new clothes for new body size. Tbh, I am torn because I plan to lose all the "panoramic" weight and I don't want to have baggy clothes in my closet. But I can't keep looking a mess while I wait to for my goal weight. Perfect video!
I would focus on buying basics, the items you wear the most for me that's jeans and a blazer , so I'd buy 2 pairs of jeans and two blazers etc Hope this helps
Hi! As soon as you said, "Welcome to the family!", I subscribed! I'm a plus sized girl who's down three sizes since October. I really appreciate your tips.
I love this channel and the skill this woman has for creating it. I grew up amidst a Kate Moss body-type family. I was quite slim until I had two kids and then gained some weight, which I do not mind. But one of the most important things we need to learn as women is how our bodies are designed uniquely and what fabrics and tailoring are est for us. I was fortunate that my grandmother had been a tailor for Chanel for many years and had her own clients. She had me assist her with clients a few times and the process was so amazing. She would have women come in flats and high heels, walk about naturally, sit on different chairs and get an idea of how their bodies actually worked. The dresses they wanted weren't always what was best for them and she would teach them about their fabrics, structuring and stitching and so many thing I never thought of. My older sister told me I have a high waist, which makes me feel great in pencil skirts, which she could never wear. But just knowing your body type and how to work with it, and never against it, creates such stunning women in every size and shape. My daughter has my family's body type but my niece has more curves like me and she is so abundantly happy and confident that it triples her beauty. Plus she knows what clothing works best for her and that is one of life's most important things for girls to know and embrace.
I am a hijabi and plus size and it's been hard for me to keep things modest and in my comfort zone while being more fashionable and complementing my body better. Thank you so much for these tips!!! Maybe it's time for me to experiment a little lol
Yes. Foundation. I’m old school and was raised to never leave the house without a girdle. Now, I’m old and been menopausal for 20 years, so I now refrain from anything even slightly constricting.
I SO NEEDED THIS!!! Thank you!! New subscriber!! ❤ I had three kids in 2 years lol so things are definitely different over here lol. I really need to stop waiting to feel pretty or constantly comparing my body know to my body then. I'm a type 1 diabetic that had 3 whole babies when they said I couldn't. Booty and hips is a badge of honor lol!!!
Thank you sis. It’s not just about being plus size but the shape. Cause a lot of times with plus size models it’s the hourglass model that preferred. It’s good to see someone that really does look like me (and I’ll not referring to skin color).
I just found this video in my recommendations, I've never been so excited about clothes and fashion trends. Literally, this was an amazing video. Thanks
I've been *searching* for content about dressing for my body shape - thank you so much, and this came right on time! I'm a mid-sized girl (US 12) with a full bust and narrow hips, and it has been so difficult to find folks online who have that same shape. It seems like most plus models are pear-shaped, and the straight-sized models are stick thin. Trying to picture how certain styles will look on me is a real challenge, but your examples were so spot-on!
If you have narrow hips, A-line skirts and dresses are your best friends! If you're more into pants, try combining them with peplum tops. You could also try high waisted pants that are ment to be a little looser around the hips. Maybe like these paperbag summer trousers or so. Basically anything that flares out at the bottom.. 👌 Oh and it might seem counter-intuitive but try something with ruffle sleeves. I mean the ones that are basically a half circle sewn on in a ruffle as some kind of large cap sleeve. I don't know the English name. It does add width to your shoulders, but it looks intentional and feminine. You can't really see the broad shoulders underneath it. I feel like it works for me at least 🤷 Shein has a lot of peplum tops and ruffle sleeves. At least the plus size section is loaded with peplum things. If you're midsize, just look at the measurements on the website and order a 0XL and/or go for something with a belt. So top 2 outfits: -Flared ruffle sleeve crop top with high waisted A-line skirt - peplum top (with ruffle sleeves and belt to cinge the waist while still being able to fit your boobs into the it) and skinny jeans Maybe this helps :)
You’re right. Our girls should be taught and taken to get fitted for a bra. I took my oldest niece to get fitted for a bra at Victoria’s Secrets while she was visiting me for the summer. On another note, control top undergarments make a HUGE difference in appearance. I love them!
Thank you! You convinced me to move that lovely fitted wrap dress from my saved to my cart and bought for my 20th anniversary beach trip! I am about an 8/10, but gained a few pounds and was feeling kinda crappy about it. You made me realize that I need to flaunt my positives!
Giiiiirl!!!! I'm only 4 minutes in and I LIKED and subscribed to your channel!!! LOVE this video!! Thank you for this! I'm a size 14...okay really 16 but refuse to accept it. Lol I have never been bigger than a size 12 so idk how to dress with this size so this video is awesome!!! AND YES VIDEO FOR BODY TYPES!!!! I totally NEED this!!!
You dragged me all the way in this video and when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, No. 5 knocked me the F out 😭😭 I loved all the tips, I’ll definitely apply them
sis its something we've all struggled with at some point I know I have Noting wrong with wanting to be healthy but while you are doing that you still should be allowed to live life.
OMG! I used the body shape calculator and it said I was a Spoon shape this whole time I thought I was leaning towards an apple shape. It listed different clothing that works for spoon size and realized those clothes do look good on me. Thanks again for this !!!
Sis, you’re a Godsend. Ive been shopping to update my wardrobe. Ive gained 40lbs, and the shopping has been a horrible experience and truth be told my insecurities have grown. But nowwwwww.. Ive gained more confidence in my ability to look good by just listening to your tips.
girl finding your personal style is a process and honestly, that's the fun part style is always evolving so embrace it and have fun. Im always here if you need any quick pointer xx
I appreciate the permission to do things when you want & stop waiting..it's crazy how easy it is to forget about the fact you can do anything regardless of how you feel you look. Thank you! That right there gained you another subscriber! ❤
I buy what I like and if I don't like the why it fit or it doesn't give the look I was going for. I either return/exchange or give it away. I truly believe in wearing the right foundation especially if it's fitted. Anybody that see me know I have a belly, rolls & cellulite but I don't want everyone to see it🙅🏾♀️. TFS💕
Wearing the wrong under garments🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Preach on it!!!!!! A bra fitting will change your life. They do it with smart technology and measure you with an iPad. It's amazing!!!!!! Every woman needs this.
who does it with smart technology? I had mine via a virtual fitting because of the pandemic and the project I was working on so many girls have asked me for options so Id love to point them in the right direction!
Lady!!! Such a great message. Size 6 or 26 do you! Love that you mentioned foundations! My #1 pet peeve is seeing Simone wearing a great dress with underwear that destroy the line. I have this convo with GROWN women who think that is the way they are supposed to look. #leaveyourlittlesisterspantiesalone #anygreatbuildinghasasolidFOUNDATION
Thank you! I can't wait to check out some of your linked videos. I am with you concerning sleeveless clothing. As a plus-size woman myself, I started wearing sleeveless clothing and I love it!
Your vid was spot on💎! I feel like the more us women (or guys too) accept that our body will and can change during the years we can feel comfortable in our current body size. It may take some soul searching 🧘🏾♀️❤🙏🏽 but once you're over that you can enjoy shopping for great finds at your present shape. That old shape is in the past...let it go! And the clothes! Even if your goal is to get rid of weight don't be so hard on yourself. Once you get to your ideal size let the reward be to buy new fashion! 😎🥰😀
I was in my mid 50s and at work wearing capris with the band made for belts. Coworker: you need to buy those pants with the stretch band like I do. Me: So what are you trying to say? Next time I went shopping, I bought pants with stretch bands. Me to Coworker: Girl, thank you so much I am so comfortable!
I needed this! I am guilty of waiting until I lose weight to get new clothes that I really want to wear after having my baby boy. Bump that, I'm not waiting any more. Thanks for posting! BTW, you are so pretty, and that yellow is gorgeous on you!
I literally just ran across your channel - I don't know which part of you I love best - you're attitude, your personality, your looks etc. You just exude confidence and positivity - very rarely seen in our plus size community. I'm 57 and have just "given up" on dressing myself and stick with the flowy and knit type outfits, which, although is SUPER comfy is not necessarily flaterring. THANK YOU for your post - I'm definitely subscribing!
New subscriber! This touched home when you said stop waiting until my desired weight goal! I used to that until I actually lost 62lbs during the panoramic 😹. I’m currently 6.5 months pregnant & I wear whatever I want with style!💜💜💜loved the video !
I love your style and tips FOR ALL SIZES! I sent this video to 10 of my friends of all sizes because we all have the same complaints of ourselves and the same style faults of not stepping out of our comfort zone. A+ XOXO
Oh my goodness you are finally making me comfortable in my own body. After I had my last baby I am the heaviest I've ever been and I've tried so hard to lose weight. I've hated my body. There was one picture in particular that someone took of me and I just looked so big and it disgusted me. But then I found you here on RUclips! I don't think you know how much you changed my view of myself. You are finally giving me confidence again. I can't thank you enough!
I agree! Please don't ever let your weight keep you from doing something you want to do. I have done that and I regret it. I'll never do it again. What other people think about you doesn't matter. What you think of yourself matters. Think positive about yourself. You most certainly deserve it.
Bless you for your positive body image message! It is so badly needed these days. You are absolutely right about foundation garments being the key to everything. Just look to fashion history to see this is something that has always been true. Hello Victorian corsets. Our grandmothers knew it. We need to get in tune with it too.
I remember being younger and not wanting to go to school due to lack of having clothes. My mom had gained a lot of weight after having my brother some 6yrs prior. She was used to having an amazing body/shape. She would go out and buy tons of clothes that were in my size (3/4) at the time while she was at least 12 sizes bigger (16/18) talking about those clothes were for when she lost the weight. All the while my straight A’s I was getting in school were turning to D’s and F’s because I was to embarrassed to go to school wearing the same outfits every other day. I started going into the tons of containers she had the clothes stored in and started wearing them. She found out and flipped out. I’m crying and explaining to her how i have nothing to wear. She could care less, she continued buying the “weight loss” clothes for herself while i still suffered. This happened for a while until I told my family and they got on her and she had no choice but to start making sure that I had the stuff I needed. It still wasn’t enough but it had gotten better.
I’m sorry for you. My mom did things like when I was in school among others things. However, she’s also a narcissist. Not saying it’s the same with your mom.
Just ran into your channel today ugh I think God literally sent you to me you’re exactly what I needed I have been scouring the internet and all over Pinterest looking for fashionable flattering plus size fashion and you just gave me everything I needed in this video I’m so excited now I’ve been adding things to my carts here and there the past few days I’m about to re do everything thanks for the inspiration you’re literally amazing!!!
I have seen more than one or two or three Plus size fashion beauty RUclipsrs showing clothing within hauls or whatever that are too small. The question isn't can I get it on my body, the question is do the garments skim the body and don't emphasize every lump bump and dimple? I am surprised when I see this, because some of these folks are supposedly making bank on legit fashion deals or at least have large YT audiences and they look like they have no idea how to find clothes that actually fit. Thank you for telling the truth and helping us fluffy girls look good no matter what are aesthetic/style beyond fashion might be!
I recently got a bra fitting from Lane Bryant...touch less! I was finally wearing the right size!! Love/dress where you are today while you’re on your journey 🙋🏾♀️ “go ahead Sis!!”
Love that you discussed the importance of foundation and especially wearing the correct size and fit bra! The correct fitting bra is comfortable to wear, no moaning about underwires, etc. The correct fitting bra changes the fit of all your clothes for the better!
You're the first style person who has my body type. Most people have very different builds from me and I have about six things going on that don't 100% fit a specific mold other than knowing that I look like a tent when I wear sheet dresses and loose shirts.
Stop wearing ill- fitting underwear (get fitted) Stop wearing the wrong clothes for your body shape (get right clothes for your body ) Stop running away from trends, pick the ones most similar to your style. Get magazines to learn, Stop wearing baggy clothes, rock the body you have proudly, Stop wearing tight clothes, clothes too tight for your body. Stop waiting till you lose weight to live your life.
3 babies in 4 years, I kept waiting to buy myself new clothes/cute clothes until I dropped the baby weight. Struggles with my body image and still sometimes don’t want to leave my house :/ but I’m so happy I found out where to shop “plus size” and style myself and my new body and I’m feeling so much better about myself. So happy I found you!
This was so inspiring and uplifting. It's given me the boost to try out clothes and styles I shy away from because of my prominent paunch (I'm a size 16). I really felt it when you gave permission because I think I really needed it. Thank you!
I adore this look oml, the hair and the shirt and the jacket, it’s STUNNING! And I love you specifying that there’s nothing wrong with wearing “unflattering” pieces, just avoid filling your whole wardrobe with them and bear it in mind when you get ready…it’s great advice! Love this vid, some great tips 💛 I’m always fascinated by how different we can look based on how we style ourselves
LOVE THIS! The only thing I disagree with because I’m a person who believes in giving, is you saying, “throw the clothes away” 😬 Please tell them to take them to the thrift store. My plus size friends who loves thrifting complain about not finding too many outfits that fits. Love your show young sis ❤
Im guilty of all these sins, Im probably struggling the worst with the underwear because comfort vs look is usually a big battle. I am so glad I stopped waiting for my target weight couple of years ago and I finally have a decent wardrobe
Thank you sis for this truth on how not to let your size stop you from going or doing what you want..as I sat down to watch your video I was struggling with my weight and thinking of canceling our Jamaica vacation because of how big I look. But listening to you gave me the confidence to go have fun and do me. This video came at the right time for me and I appreciate you for making me see the truth!
Do it girl. I was in 8th terrified to show my arms i was wearin a hoodie durin a Texas summer, i was about to pass out frfr so i just said fuck it and took it off and guess what? Nobody cared or ever noticed i was torturing myself for nothing from that day i didn't care. Wear that tank top.
You're views are on point ! The trends these days are now gearing towards ones own style verses copying another (a long way from when I was younger). I love how you pointed out that its okay to wear a baggy dress but its also okay to wear a fitted one.
That “stop waiting for that goal weight”hit me 😭
girl I totally get creating an incentive but when does it stop being an incentive and start being toxic I just want my people to feel comfortable in the skin they are in even if they are working on it xx
Me too sis😭
Yessss! I love your advice because I haven't bought clothes for awhile now. Yelp waiting to loose those extra pounds. Guess what Sis, I gained even more so I do need help in finding clothes to dress my body now! Who knows when those extra pounds will leave me? I don't!🤣🤣🤣
I recently lost 75lbs, but my arms are flappy from loose skin. So "waiting to loose weight" doesnt solve everything. The insecurity is still there.
I hate showing my arms. Luckily in Toronto (Canada)... we only 68° - 90°F degree weather for 3 months of the year.
During summer months I always wear light windbreakers, white linen shirts or some floral flowy cover ups (i have so many)
Yep, just got fir it
My motto is nobody knows the the number on the tag but we do know when your clothes are too small...
that is such a good motto when its too small we all know !
I say that all the time!!!
Yes, yes
Ooo, chile, lol! I can't believe how many plus-size RUclipsrs I see presenting themselves as size 20 when clearly they are a size 26 (or more). I'm like, sis come on now. You not foolin' nobody squeezing into that too small size 20 dress or even worse, pants/jeans! People really need to come correct and stop fronting!
I remember explaining that to my daughter
Please encourage donations of clothing you no longer wear instead of throwing them away one person's trash is another person's treasure.
I donate as much as possible
I love to donate my stuff but I also let friends shop in my closet. We trade a lot 💕
Truth. I am going through and getting rid of my 8s and embracing the 10s, 12s, and the occasional 14 in my closet. IF I ever get back to that 8, I can rebuild my wardrobe and replace. In the meantime let someone else enjoy these things🤗
@@aliveandconnected great idea
Wow I didn't know people threw clothes away like that. I always give my clothes away. Someone else can benefit from it and make it better than what I did.
"Stop waiting until you lose weight!" THANK YOU! I started wearing a two-piece swimsuit a few years ago, stretch marks, extra weight and all! ❤👙
It’s the Panoramic for me ☺️

Lol. Yes!
I just said the same thing!! I was too tickled!!😆😆
Panoramic....lol.too cute
I thought I was the ONLY one who heard that, lol 😂
I was married for a total of 26 years. During that time, I was only allowed to wear drab, baggy clothes.

Congrats on moving on from that controlling nonsense. Hope you fill your closet with awesome, flattering clothing.
Wellcome to the new life. Enjoy 😊🥳❤️
Yesss. I am not waiting for the goal weight. I just went and got larger shirts and my mom called while I was out at the store. She said you shouldn’t buy more clothes just wait until you lose weight.

What were NOT going to do is be toxic to ourselves and abuse ourselves.
Love to wear new stuff, but classics are the best cause they never go out of style.
👏🏿👏🏿👏🏿 I received that message!
My secret to up and down weight is to rock a dress. If it's too big I belt. If I gain a little weight I rock a sweater over it. I also will wear a control bottom that is calf length. And most of my clothes are 3 season proof as much as possible 💕

I had 2 kids back to back. My husband is super skinny and never gains weight. He bought me whatever I wanted to eat when pregnant. The weight gain was cute when I was pregnant, but now they’re toddlers. I’m way bigger now. When you said “this is your permission”, I started bawling. Thank you so much for this video. I haven’t bought any new clothes since my baby shower with my first born. I’m going to get new clothes now, and embrace this body I now have. 🤍
Sis you better buy yourself some new clothes lets normalize working with what you currently have even if you are in pursuit of a healthier you!!!!
Same here I had two kids back to back I went from a size 6 :( to a size 16 I'm down to a size 12 and my husband of course is skinny and super fit.( We used to workout together) I feel like a bag of potatoes don't like going out bc I'm constantly shying away bc of my weight. Thanks for this push I will start wearing whatever I want and feel confident in.
❤🙏🏽
Wow it's like you lived my life. Super skinny husband. Gained weight during pregnancy. Had back to back pregnancies and gained more weight. Now I'm scared to buy new clothes. I live in leggings and oversized t shirts.
I have a 7 year old and 2 ywar old and a 8 week old. I was a nice 130 ibs and i am now a nice 200
Better than tossing out, schedule a clothes swap with your friends. My bestie does this at the end of every year. We have so much fun trying on and styling outfits. Really economical too! Clothes, shoes, jewelry, outerwear, etc.
Wow. Thanks for the tip. Sounds fun.
Wow that's such a cool idea!
i need to find more friends lol
Thx that's a good idea, but I don't have friends to swap with.
🤦🏽♀️if I throw out everything that's either too big or too small, I'll have socks and shoes left🤣🤣🤣
haha you can keep the stuff thats too big you just gotta get creative with layers belts and accessories or better yet get them tailored to fit xx
I am sorry but this is too funny!! 😂😂😂
My problem too
🤣🤣🤣🤣
💯🤣😂
I won’t even have socks left, those things disappear
I am not a plus size woman, but all these apply to me also. These are universal size tips. I appreciate your time and effort.

Ok great! Because this vid had been recommended to me for days but im not plus size, and I thought what's the point? But good to know
I really enjoyed it!
“Stop wearing super tight clothes “. YES find your size ! That has been a game changer . I had 3 kids back to back . And my body has changed sooooo much . I had to find my right size and find clothes for my new body . Wearing my correct size has boosted SO much confidence!
Yes... please do an update on body types and flattering clothes.
Will definately do is there anything specific you would like for me to cover ?
@@SuppleChicTV Pairing flattering tops with a heavier midsection with non-skinny jeans?
Agreed! Flattering silhouettes for people with a midsection. Dresses, skirts, etc for spring/summer style

@@SuppleChicTV thank you!
Finally! Someone who’s body looks like mine. I’m over size 2 girls telling me how to style my plus size body! You’re so beautiful and stylish, thank you for making these videos.
I needed to hear your words and I'm almost 60 years old. Thank you.
I appreciate your comment. I feel the same way.
you are welcome boo so glad this video resonated!!!
Me too
I’m 57 Alma, we are still young! Enjoy your beauty❤️
Hey ladies!! 58 here and I need this channel lol.😊
for the longest time I never wore shorts outside. I have had enough. I am wearing booty shorts all summer long and errbody gonna have to deal with these jiggly thunder thighs!
Good for you Sarah!
One of the CLASSIEST TUTORIALS I've ever seen. You are so real and engaging. Thank you!
A lot of plus size fashion is using models who still have thin waist or flatter tummy...i hv no waist whatsoever and my tummy is not flat 😩😩 i am up and down straight. But belts sometimes create a huge fupa😩 i may not techinally be plus size cause im a 12/14 but im very short lol so thanks for these tips.
I FEEL WHAT U MEAN WHEN IT CIMES TO PLUSSIZE MODELS NO FUPA EVERYBODY AINT TOP HEAVY WITH NO TUMMY OR TOP WITH FUPA. THERE'S 36B CUPS PLUSSIZE WITH A FUPA WE NEED MODELS IN ALL SHAPES/SIZES. 🙈🤗
I just found your channel and I absolutely adore you! You hands down body everything you put on and are a prime example that you don’t have to be a size 2 to be fashionable. I’m not plus size but I truly appreciate your platform. Now back to binge watching your videos 🤗
Natalie you are too kind Ive always believed this we make great style about style but it isn't! Women like you are vital to our community you are welcome here xx
Its the energy for me. Subscribed at 59 seconds. And I have no clue how I got here 😂
Sssiiiss! That pink body con dress though!!! Yes gawd!!! 😍😍😍😍
boo, its old but ill be on the lookout for something similar!
@@SuppleChicTV It may be old, but you look amazing in it!
A lot of people are a cup size larger than they realize. This makes a huge difference, no back bulge, no pain under the armpits, no double boob, I also felt more conservative because I knew I was covered. I'm only a C, but it made such a positive difference. I can only imagine what it would do for larger cups.
You had me at Rule #1! I have been a firm believer regarding proper bra fittings for YEARS! Just before my daughter started high school we both got properly sized and it. Was. Life-changing.
"Rock the body you have PROUDLY." How have I been on the planet 31 years and never heard this? Thank you, thank you, thank you for your content- your words lifted me out of a major body rut today!!!
Thats what I do.I wear shorts,sundresses and tank tops I don't care how big I am.I ain't burning up for no one in the summer.
Love that, I had to learn to have this outlook.
I know dats right ❤🙌🏾
it took me a while to be comfortable enough but now I'm a strong believer that everyone should mind the business that pays them!
@@fakeidonthaveahandle SAME!
Yes!! 😂
I'm actually 48 and never had a bra fitting.. was always a bit embarrassed to ask for the help. Love the positive reinforcement in this video.. we have to get past this stuff!
next time just remember you're a woman, who wears bras, they need to fit. there is no embarrassment in that
I NEEDED to hear this!! "Stop waiting until you lose weight"! I avoid wearing shorts because my legs aren't what they used to be.
The last tip. It may sound silly but I always liked my fits more when I tucked my top into my bottoms but I said I'd only wear it like that when I was a certain weight because my gut can't be out like that. I just did it one day despite my insecurities and I ain't mad at myself lol 💚
Yes, do an update on flattering silhouettes for each body type! Side note: you look amazing, and I just bought a hot pink version of the jacket you're wearing! ❤
aww thanks sis Love hot pink for this season did your jacket come from eloquii as well?
@@SuppleChicTV Yes it did, as well as several dresses and blouses, lol! ☺
Truer words have never been spoken. I am top heavy and have had bra fittings since middle school (I am 40 now). I am legit passionate about this. I took all my favorite girlfriends to my favorite boutique and got them all fitted for bras. You’d be shocked your REAL size and it makes a huge difference in your look. It elongates the body, and slenderizes. Do yourself the favor.
Damn shame my momma never taught me nothing about this and I'm 33 years old 🤦🏿♀️ I'm too grown not to be knowing nothing about this
Yes
You live and you learn ❤️❤️❤️
Mama probably didn't know either, you might should share it with her lol
She was “just working with the tools she was given”! In my Tupac voice lol
Same
This has been helpful to boosting my confidence. I wear mostly baggy clothes and I wear them until they wear out. I hate shopping because it always makes me feel terrible about myself. Often times when I'm around other people, I'm thinking "I'm so sorry you have to see me" when I'm having conversations. This has helped me gain a bit of confidence to go out and look for the things I want to wear. I'm in art school, I don't think they're gonna mind me having fun with my appearance.
The bra thing is the truth. A few years ago I started going to a specialty bra store. I pay more money for them now but what a world of difference it has made.
Name the store please need better bras
@@MsBluekittykat The bra store I usually go to is local to me. But you can try HerRoom.com They have a ton of bras in lots of sizes and different brands. There is also a chat feature I believe so you can ask questions and get suggestions as you browse. I recently bought several bras by a brand called elomi. Very happy with my purchase.
Ditto to my sis Elomi makes great bras for fuller busts my virtual fitting was with them! If you have a fuller bust a properly fitted bra is game changing!
@@MsBluekittykat I go to Lane Bryant
I’m not even plus size and I follow your tips. They are classic and applicable to all. Thanks for giving me confidence to try new looks👍🏼
You're welcome boo! So glad to hear you'll be trying new looks xx
This made me feel warm and happier inside, thank you! I'm a plus size 5"11 girl..at 18. Im constantly feeling insecure but I feel good seeing this :)
OMG snap im size 16 uk and 5ft 10!
This is so helpful! I gained over 50 lbs during the quarantine and I found myself trying so hard to rock the clothes that fit before. Needless to say, I looked a mess everyday for the last four months. I literally made each of these mistakes and had to accept that I have to buy new clothes for new body size. Tbh, I am torn because I plan to lose all the "panoramic" weight and I don't want to have baggy clothes in my closet. But I can't keep looking a mess while I wait to for my goal weight. Perfect video!
I would focus on buying basics, the items you wear the most for me that's jeans and a blazer , so I'd buy 2 pairs of jeans and two blazers etc Hope this helps
Hi! As soon as you said, "Welcome to the family!", I subscribed! I'm a plus sized girl who's down three sizes since October. I really appreciate your tips.
I love this channel and the skill this woman has for creating it. I grew up amidst a Kate Moss body-type family. I was quite slim until I had two kids and then gained some weight, which I do not mind. But one of the most important things we need to learn as women is how our bodies are designed uniquely and what fabrics and tailoring are est for us. I was fortunate that my grandmother had been a tailor for Chanel for many years and had her own clients. She had me assist her with clients a few times and the process was so amazing. She would have women come in flats and high heels, walk about naturally, sit on different chairs and get an idea of how their bodies actually worked. The dresses they wanted weren't always what was best for them and she would teach them about their fabrics, structuring and stitching and so many thing I never thought of. My older sister told me I have a high waist, which makes me feel great in pencil skirts, which she could never wear. But just knowing your body type and how to work with it, and never against it, creates such stunning women in every size and shape. My daughter has my family's body type but my niece has more curves like me and she is so abundantly happy and confident that it triples her beauty. Plus she knows what clothing works best for her and that is one of life's most important things for girls to know and embrace.
I am a hijabi and plus size and it's been hard for me to keep things modest and in my comfort zone while being more fashionable and complementing my body better. Thank you so much for these tips!!! Maybe it's time for me to experiment a little lol
Yes. Foundation. I’m old school and was raised to never leave the house without a girdle. Now, I’m old and been menopausal for 20 years, so I now refrain from anything even slightly constricting.
Great advice!!! I'm almost 50 and at this point in my life I'm living my best life!!!
I SO NEEDED THIS!!! Thank you!! New subscriber!! ❤
I had three kids in 2 years lol so things are definitely different over here lol. I really need to stop waiting to feel pretty or constantly comparing my body know to my body then. I'm a type 1 diabetic that had 3 whole babies when they said I couldn't. Booty and hips is a badge of honor lol!!!
Thanks for this! Please do a body types one... Could you also talk about short-waisted vs proportional types? Maybe flattering flat butts as well lol
Thank you sis. It’s not just about being plus size but the shape. Cause a lot of times with plus size models it’s the hourglass model that preferred. It’s good to see someone that really does look like me (and I’ll not referring to skin color).
I won't wait!!! I wore my white combat boots with the fake fur, and I rocked them!!!!
I just found this video in my recommendations, I've never been so excited about clothes and fashion trends. Literally, this was an amazing video. Thanks
I've been *searching* for content about dressing for my body shape - thank you so much, and this came right on time! I'm a mid-sized girl (US 12) with a full bust and narrow hips, and it has been so difficult to find folks online who have that same shape. It seems like most plus models are pear-shaped, and the straight-sized models are stick thin. Trying to picture how certain styles will look on me is a real challenge, but your examples were so spot-on!
If you have narrow hips, A-line skirts and dresses are your best friends!
If you're more into pants, try combining them with peplum tops.
You could also try high waisted pants that are ment to be a little looser around the hips. Maybe like these paperbag summer trousers or so.
Basically anything that flares out at the bottom.. 👌
Oh and it might seem counter-intuitive but try something with ruffle sleeves. I mean the ones that are basically a half circle sewn on in a ruffle as some kind of large cap sleeve. I don't know the English name. It does add width to your shoulders, but it looks intentional and feminine. You can't really see the broad shoulders underneath it.
I feel like it works for me at least 🤷
Shein has a lot of peplum tops and ruffle sleeves. At least the plus size section is loaded with peplum things. If you're midsize, just look at the measurements on the website and order a 0XL and/or go for something with a belt.
So top 2 outfits:
-Flared ruffle sleeve crop top with high waisted A-line skirt
- peplum top (with ruffle sleeves and belt to cinge the waist while still being able to fit your boobs into the it) and skinny jeans
Maybe this helps :)
You’re right. Our girls should be taught and taken to get fitted for a bra. I took my oldest niece to get fitted for a bra at Victoria’s Secrets while she was visiting me for the summer. On another note, control top undergarments make a HUGE difference in appearance. I love them!
Thank you! You convinced me to move that lovely fitted wrap dress from my saved to my cart and bought for my 20th anniversary beach trip! I am about an 8/10, but gained a few pounds and was feeling kinda crappy about it. You made me realize that I need to flaunt my positives!
Giiiiirl!!!! I'm only 4 minutes in and I LIKED and subscribed to your channel!!! LOVE this video!! Thank you for this! I'm a size 14...okay really 16 but refuse to accept it. Lol I have never been bigger than a size 12 so idk how to dress with this size so this video is awesome!!! AND YES VIDEO FOR BODY TYPES!!!! I totally NEED this!!!
This is totally me. Used to be a 12, refused to accept I’m not a 14 and a little 16 😂😂😂😂
You dragged me all the way in this video and when I thought it couldn’t get any worse, No. 5 knocked me the F out 😭😭 I loved all the tips, I’ll definitely apply them
I'm def queen of the baggy sack look.. my husband hates it. Really going to try to listen here..
You and me both!!! I'm going to have to do something about that 😊
“You really don’t wanna look like a sausage” 😂 No I don’t!
Or a can of crushed, busted biscuits 🤷🏽♀️🤦🏽♀️😩👏🏽😂🤣
what type of sausage?
That "stop waiting to lose weight" hit me cause I've been trying to fit into my size 6 skinny leans
sis its something we've all struggled with at some point I know I have Noting wrong with wanting to be healthy but while you are doing that you still should be allowed to live life.
@@SuppleChicTV thank you
OMG! I used the body shape calculator and it said I was a Spoon shape this whole time I thought I was leaning towards an apple shape. It listed different clothing that works for spoon size and realized those clothes do look good on me. Thanks again for this !!!
Your welcome sis so glad it resonated this is what I love to see xx
Sis, you’re a Godsend. Ive been shopping to update my wardrobe. Ive gained 40lbs, and the shopping has been a horrible experience and truth be told my insecurities have grown. But nowwwwww.. Ive gained more confidence in my ability to look good by just listening to your tips.
This video really came for me! but i love it! I'm in a stage where I'm trying to find my own style and it's so hard. But these video's really help!
girl finding your personal style is a process and honestly, that's the fun part style is always evolving so embrace it and have fun. Im always here if you need any quick pointer xx
I’m trying to get out of the baggy clothes phase sis thank you for telling me what it is. I feel like you was talking directly to me.
Wait. Did she say bc of the "panoramic"?? 🤣🤣🤣🤣 . I think I pulled something laughing. That was awesome. Lol
I started scroll the comments just to see if anyone else heard it and she said it more than once in the video 😅🤣😂😆
I appreciate the permission to do things when you want & stop waiting..it's crazy how easy it is to forget about the fact you can do anything regardless of how you feel you look. Thank you! That right there gained you another subscriber! ❤
I buy what I like and if I don't like the why it fit or it doesn't give the look I was going for. I either return/exchange or give it away. I truly believe in wearing the right foundation especially if it's fitted. Anybody that see me know I have a belly, rolls & cellulite but I don't want everyone to see it🙅🏾♀️. TFS💕
Wearing the wrong under garments🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 Preach on it!!!!!! A bra fitting will change your life. They do it with smart technology and measure you with an iPad. It's amazing!!!!!! Every woman needs this.
who does it with smart technology? I had mine via a virtual fitting because of the pandemic and the project I was working on so many girls have asked me for options so Id love to point them in the right direction!
Lady!!! Such a great message. Size 6 or 26 do you! Love that you mentioned foundations! My #1 pet peeve is seeing Simone wearing a great dress with underwear that destroy the line. I have this convo with GROWN women who think that is the way they are supposed to look. #leaveyourlittlesisterspantiesalone #anygreatbuildinghasasolidFOUNDATION
I'm with you there Sis! And yes grown women need to stop wearing thongs with light/white pants and shorts as well... doing this is just not classy😵
Thank you! I can't wait to check out some of your linked videos. I am with you concerning sleeveless clothing. As a plus-size woman myself, I started wearing sleeveless clothing and I love it!
Your vid was spot on💎! I feel like the more us women (or guys too) accept that our body will and can change during the years we can feel comfortable in our current body size. It may take some soul searching 🧘🏾♀️❤🙏🏽 but once you're over that you can enjoy shopping for great finds at your present shape. That old shape is in the past...let it go! And the clothes! Even if your goal is to get rid of weight don't be so hard on yourself. Once you get to your ideal size let the reward be to buy new fashion! 😎🥰😀
girl you hit the nail right on the head. I do think it takes changing your mindset once you do its sooo freeing!
I was in my mid 50s and at work wearing capris with the band made for belts.
Coworker: you need to buy those pants with the stretch band like I do.
Me: So what are you trying to say?
Next time I went shopping, I bought pants with stretch bands.
Me to Coworker: Girl, thank you so much I am so comfortable!
The underwear disclaimer had me subbing! Yes wear the right undergarments!
I needed this! I am guilty of waiting until I lose weight to get new clothes that I really want to wear after having my baby boy. Bump that, I'm not waiting any more. Thanks for posting! BTW, you are so pretty, and that yellow is gorgeous on you!
I literally just ran across your channel - I don't know which part of you I love best - you're attitude, your personality, your looks etc. You just exude confidence and positivity - very rarely seen in our plus size community. I'm 57 and have just "given up" on dressing myself and stick with the flowy and knit type outfits, which, although is SUPER comfy is not necessarily flaterring. THANK YOU for your post - I'm definitely subscribing!
Thank you so much!! and WELCOME TO THE FAMILY glad youre here xx
New subscriber! This touched home when you said stop waiting until my desired weight goal! I used to that until I actually lost 62lbs during the panoramic 😹. I’m currently 6.5 months pregnant & I wear whatever I want with style!💜💜💜loved the video !
You are so likable! This is my first time watching tour channel. I’m 10 seconds in and you have a new subbie!
I did the exact same thing! Listened for a few seconds then said to myself, “I have to subscribe to this channel!”
Same!
I love your style and tips FOR ALL SIZES! I sent this video to 10 of my friends of all sizes because we all have the same complaints of ourselves and the same style faults of not stepping out of our comfort zone. A+ XOXO
Great video!
I personally stopped wearing skinny jeans last year. Balloon and wide leg are now my go to☺️
Oh my goodness you are finally making me comfortable in my own body. After I had my last baby I am the heaviest I've ever been and I've tried so hard to lose weight. I've hated my body. There was one picture in particular that someone took of me and I just looked so big and it disgusted me. But then I found you here on RUclips! I don't think you know how much you changed my view of myself. You are finally giving me confidence again. I can't thank you enough!
Please do a video on what is the most flattering for different body talks.
I agree! Please don't ever let your weight keep you from doing something you want to do. I have done that and I regret it. I'll never do it again. What other people think about you doesn't matter. What you think of yourself matters. Think positive about yourself. You most certainly deserve it.
Sis!!!!! Let me just say I appreciate you ❤️❤️❤️
Sis I appreciate you! It means the world to me that you are here Im glad the content resonates xx
What about sweatshirts rounded neck
Bless you for your positive body image message! It is so badly needed these days. You are absolutely right about foundation garments being the key to everything. Just look to fashion history to see this is something that has always been true. Hello Victorian corsets. Our grandmothers knew it. We need to get in tune with it too.
I remember being younger and not wanting to go to school due to lack of having clothes. My mom had gained a lot of weight after having my brother some 6yrs prior. She was used to having an amazing body/shape. She would go out and buy tons of clothes that were in my size (3/4) at the time while she was at least 12 sizes bigger (16/18) talking about those clothes were for when she lost the weight. All the while my straight A’s I was getting in school were turning to D’s and F’s because I was to embarrassed to go to school wearing the same outfits every other day. I started going into the tons of containers she had the clothes stored in and started wearing them. She found out and flipped out. I’m crying and explaining to her how i have nothing to wear. She could care less, she continued buying the “weight loss” clothes for herself while i still suffered. This happened for a while until I told my family and they got on her and she had no choice but to start making sure that I had the stuff I needed. It still wasn’t enough but it had gotten better.
Lord have mercy. So sorry to hear that. I'm so glad that you're better
body dismophia is a real thing and sometimes its easier for people to not face the truth glad that season of your life is over xx
I can relate. I am wearing clothes that I wore when I was in primary school.
I think we had the same mom! Except it wasn’t because of her losing weight it was just because she wanted clothes. Ugh!
I’m sorry for you. My mom did things like when I was in school among others things. However, she’s also a narcissist. Not saying it’s the same with your mom.
Just ran into your channel today ugh I think God literally sent you to me you’re exactly what I needed I have been scouring the internet and all over Pinterest looking for fashionable flattering plus size fashion and you just gave me everything I needed in this video I’m so excited now I’ve been adding things to my carts here and there the past few days I’m about to re do everything thanks for the inspiration you’re literally amazing!!!
LOL at the bra fitting class in middle school, I’m here for it!
Also, pink dress is 🔥
Awesome tips, and girl, THAT PINK FITTED DRESS, OMG😍😍😍😍!
Love this chi chi..thank you girl...I’m never getting over the mustard biker jacket it’s gorg😍
I have seen more than one or two or three Plus size fashion beauty RUclipsrs showing clothing within hauls or whatever that are too small. The question isn't can I get it on my body, the question is do the garments skim the body and don't emphasize every lump bump and dimple? I am surprised when I see this, because some of these folks are supposedly making bank on legit fashion deals or at least have large YT audiences and they look like they have no idea how to find clothes that actually fit. Thank you for telling the truth and helping us fluffy girls look good no matter what are aesthetic/style beyond fashion might be!
I recently got a bra fitting from Lane Bryant...touch less! I was finally wearing the right size!! Love/dress where you are today while you’re on your journey 🙋🏾♀️
“go ahead Sis!!”
girl getting that bra fitting does wonders for your look but also your posture your confidence I dare say. Def a worthwhile investment.
Love that you discussed the importance of foundation and especially wearing the correct size and fit bra! The correct fitting bra is comfortable to wear, no moaning about underwires, etc. The correct fitting bra changes the fit of all your clothes for the better!
Thank you for lifting my spirits today. I'm going through my closet today! I also love how you call us Sis. Makes me feel like I belong.
AMAZING VIDEO! Your method using the side by side views and at all angles is perfection! Your delivery, pointers and obvious expertise are on point!
So much good advice - I've put on weight during quarantine!🤦
You're the first style person who has my body type. Most people have very different builds from me and I have about six things going on that don't 100% fit a specific mold other than knowing that I look like a tent when I wear sheet dresses and loose shirts.
Well then Im glad to made it here and yes more structured styles look better on us xx
Stop wearing ill- fitting underwear (get fitted)
Stop wearing the wrong clothes for your body shape (get right clothes for your body )
Stop running away from trends, pick the ones most similar to your style. Get magazines to learn,
Stop wearing baggy clothes, rock the body you have proudly,
Stop wearing tight clothes, clothes too tight for your body.
Stop waiting till you lose weight to live your life.
Great Summary. She’s on point 💯👌🏾
Thanks...She talks too much.not straight to the point
3 babies in 4 years, I kept waiting to buy myself new clothes/cute clothes until I dropped the baby weight. Struggles with my body image and still sometimes don’t want to leave my house :/ but I’m so happy I found out where to shop “plus size” and style myself and my new body and I’m feeling so much better about myself. So happy I found you!
This was so inspiring and uplifting. It's given me the boost to try out clothes and styles I shy away from because of my prominent paunch (I'm a size 16). I really felt it when you gave permission because I think I really needed it. Thank you!
I adore this look oml, the hair and the shirt and the jacket, it’s STUNNING! And I love you specifying that there’s nothing wrong with wearing “unflattering” pieces, just avoid filling your whole wardrobe with them and bear it in mind when you get ready…it’s great advice! Love this vid, some great tips 💛 I’m always fascinated by how different we can look based on how we style ourselves
I’m in my fifties and you’ve opened my eyes on clothes. Thank you xx
LOVE THIS! The only thing I disagree with because I’m a person who believes in giving, is you saying, “throw the clothes away” 😬 Please tell them to take them to the thrift store. My plus size friends who loves thrifting complain about not finding too many outfits that fits. Love your show young sis ❤
Im guilty of all these sins, Im probably struggling the worst with the underwear because comfort vs look is usually a big battle. I am so glad I stopped waiting for my target weight couple of years ago and I finally have a decent wardrobe
by underwear do you mean underpants or bras cause seamless underwear is pretty comfortable I actually prefer them to my cotton briefs
Thank you sis for this truth on how not to let your size stop you from going or doing what you want..as I sat down to watch your video I was struggling with my weight and thinking of canceling our Jamaica vacation because of how big I look. But listening to you gave me the confidence to go have fun and do me. This video came at the right time for me and I appreciate you for making me see the truth!
I swear i hate my arms I'm terrified to wear a tank top without a cover up but I'm going to try and do it
You would be surprised the more you do it sis the more comfortable you are.
Girl same😩
Do it girl. I was in 8th terrified to show my arms i was wearin a hoodie durin a Texas summer, i was about to pass out frfr so i just said fuck it and took it off and guess what? Nobody cared or ever noticed i was torturing myself for nothing from that day i didn't care. Wear that tank top.
Yes 🙌
My mama use to tell me women with bigger arms should cover them... I basically told my mama they are gonna get all these arms and like it...😩🤣😂🤣😂
You're views are on point !
The trends these days are now gearing towards ones own style verses copying another (a long way from when I was younger). I love how you pointed out that its okay to wear a baggy dress but its also okay to wear a fitted one.
