Okay I confess!



I guess when I started this blog ages ago, I always had the intention of taking pictures of my daily outfits, etc and making it somewhat of a fashion blog, but I always get so self conscious when I do take pictures! I saw these quotes on weheartit and just thought, heck, I'm going to post whatever because it's my blog. Now you'd think that since I'm typing this, I'd have some pictures of my outfits right? But of course I forgot my camera during my adventure to Chipotle today and Cambridge yesterday (double fail). But! tomorrow is a big holiday festival in Camden and I plan on trying to do some then.

Instead; I've had these gorgeous pictures of Tara Lynn on my computer for ages now and just love everything about her. I think she's the face of Faith 21 (now Forever 21+) and I just love, love, love that she is being featured in magazines and being accepted as beautiful, no matter her size. Over the summer when I was living in New York (if you go back and read my scarce posting), Kaelah and I hit the gym everyday, and we hit it hard! At least an hour or hour & a half on the elliptical bikes, and I was very conscious of what I was putting into my mouth. Now in London, I haven't been finding it as easy to do. Between classes, interning, and hoping to save some money, I opted not to join a gym and now I'm regretting it. I've definitely gained back lots of weight that I lost all summer, and it bums me out! But it is a nice reminder from lovely ladies like Tara Lynn that beauty comes in all sizes.

  3. Liz I love this post! I just wrote a post for a school blog about weight and the media (and pr too)... sort of. I think that she is beautiful and you're right, beauty does in fact, come in all sizes!
