Hey curvy girls all over the world,
We are back with Chic Style Edit of the day. Today’s entry is from Tainisel from B’More by way of Boston , MA. When it comes to her curves, here’s what she has to say:
Like most women, my journey to embracing and loving my body has been a long and tumultuous one. I studied ballet for most of my life and with its skewed aesthetic it planted seeds of low self esteem and a yearning to be thin.
When the need to lose weight overpowered the love I had for dance, I decided to change. Gaining confidence in my passion, talent and body made me a better dancer and truly a better person.
I have since then learned to accentuate my best feature (my dancer legs) and to find clothes that flatter my apple like shape. I have always loved bold colors and sparkling, and I don’t allow being plus sized stop me from sparkling.
I embrace my curves by knowing what flatters my shape and having a great tailor (necessary when you are 5’2). Confidence is key, I let my personality shine through the clothes and accessories I wear. Most importantly I wear a smile on my face, It is the greatest accessory we have!
