Curves Around The World: Peplum

 

Hey, Beauties!!!

 

Hope you all enjoying your Saturday! Its freaking cold where I am. Winter is sneaking in slowly but surely. I must admit I cant wait to pull out my winter gear.

 

This post is about Curves Around the World Peplum theme. I never really indulged into Peplum as a result I only have this peplum top which I bought on a highly discounted sale. I don't really have many reasons for not having more peplum items....at some point when its started being on trend, I kinda convinced myself that I wont look good in peplum as it will add volume on my thick hips but looking at these pictures my perception is changed - I look good and well proportioned. So, I was wrong!!!

 

Its clear that in future I will have to give some trends a benefit of the doubt before dismissing the idea of wearing them.

 

Yes, this is my version of Peplum Style. Hope you love it :)

Denim Peplum Fabulosity!!!

Hi, fabulous ladies...

 

It has been a while I must say. It feels good to be back again after so many events happening eversince I wrote my last post. Easter was good and immediately after that my FABULOUS aunt died. It was a huge shock and pain to my entire family. She has been buried this previous weekend and her funeral service was great. "May her soul restin peace".

 

Just before easter I was cornered by my friend at MrPrice when we saw a denim short in the plus size section. She was questioning, when will I start wearing denim pants and shorts as I stopped wearing them seven years ago because I felt too big and ugly one morning.

 

So, my answer to her was: I'll consider going back in them jeans and other pant stuff when I feel its the right time and she quickly told me that: if I dont challenge myself right at that moment, the right time will never come because all I have is fear of unknown.

 

I had to take up this challenge not only because I wanted to prove to her I look good in anything but to prove to myself that I am a changed person now compared to that morning when I lacked a good frame of mind and was overly negative towards myself. Right now, I love myself regardless of my skin rolls and my fat bum and thighs. I dont care what the next person thinks about me because all I know is that we are all imperfect humans and we all have issues with ourselves one way or the other.

 

It is a pity that my issue of being overweight is obvious to everyone as a result some people tend to judge before trying to get to know me. Others are lucky enough to walk up and down the streets and get appreciated from far only because they have slim body frames but they have their own fair of body issues (rather, big issues). For an example: acne, big feet, tummy or nose, sweating problem, bad breath or they feel ugly etc BUT, all the people who are expiriencing what I have stated above always get the benefit of the doubt before being judged because of their slim exterior frame.

 

Good thing is that, I liberated myself from the chains of SELF LOATHING, I love every bit of my thick skin and I definately celebrate my thick curves 24/7. I hope when you read this post you will get inspired to love yourself more regardless of any issue you have with yourself.

 

So, I took up my friend's challenge and I think I did great because I AM BEAUTIFUL and FABULOUS. Moreover, this denim peplum look on me is on fire :) It is really SICKENING, big time..... 

 

Whats your take?? Yay or Nay????
