This post is dedicated to the power of curves. While my blog and all of my posts are focused on curvy fashion and proving that plus size women are just as beautiful/fashionable/trendy as anyone else, I think its also important to remind ourselves of the sheer power that we possess. Simply put, “curves are trending” as this shirt so perfectly displays. Notice that it does not say “Curves are a Trend”. A trend would indicate that curves are a passing fad or something that comes and goes but that is certainly not the case.

We all know the statistics. In 2012, an estimated 67% of American women were above a size 14 and I’m sure that percentage is even higher today. We also know that despite this fact, plus size women are one the most underrepresented demographics in the fashion industry. Yet in still, we are revolutionizing fashion because of our refusal to be ignored. It is because of our massive spending power, our open letters to brands and our undeniable influence that the industry has begun to take notice. And while we still have a long way to go, brands, media outlets and the like are realizing that leaving us out of the conversation is doing them as well as us a disservice. So in summary, keep those curves trending, keep the conversations going, keep slaying and keep demanding more. We are making an impact and we are here to stay.

#ad Let’s normalize celebrating your body, even #ad Let’s normalize celebrating your body, even if you desire to make changes to it. Let’s normalize working out for other reasons than just weight loss. Let’s focus on being the best version of ourselves, rather than the idea of another person’s life/body that we covet. Life is simply too short to not embrace your own amazing journey.

Connecting mind, body and spirit by doing a little beach yoga in this @lululemon gear and yoga mat. I’m awful at yoga if I’m being real. But I’m trying to do new things and allow my body to surprise me with its capabilities. Check out links to these items in my stories! @shopstyle #thesweatlife

These are just a fraction of the comments that I see. And while some of these are made in jest, your words and thoughts have so much power. You are not shaped like a (insert object). You are a person. And I don’t want to see this language anymore. K? Love ya!

I saw this quote and it stopped me in my tracks. Sometimes we get so caught up in our day-to-day or obsessing over things we don’t like about ourselves. In 2021, I’m challenging all of us (including myself) to think higher, think bigger. Our lives are so much more vast and meaningful than we imagine. Be the ocean...

We are in a brand new year and with that comes a “New Year, New You” mentality. And there is nothing wrong with setting goals for changes you want to make in your life, from your body to your daily habits. Just remember that it’s a marathon, not a sprint and to practice grace & kindness throughout.

Happy New Year’s Eve! What a crazy year it has been. I don’t know about you, but I am very much looking forward to brighter days in 2021. Today I’m celebrating even though I’m at home in this fabulous dress that I got from @stitchfix. It’s the perfect way to ring in the New Year. I’ll see you in 2021! #stitchfix #stitchfixinfluencer
