Hey where were you?

Hello my loyal readers. I was away from my blog for a while catching up on a few things and getting into alot of new career ventures. Since the last time I updated my blog, I was asked to model by one of the designers featured on PDiddy's Rip The Runway, Qristyl Frazier of Qristyl Frazier Designs. The story was a bit of a farytail where I accompanied a friend of mine to a show where plus sized models went to audition for a spot on DSE-TV a new television show for plus sized fashion, modeling etc. Qristyl Frazier had a sample sale where I was getting busy shopping and it happened just like that! I was asked to model for her. My first show is on July 18th at Wall Street. I will keep you posted of the time and exact location. In the mean time, check out http://www.qristylfrazierdesigns.com/ to see some of the clothing that I may be modeling.

Hey Sexy Lips

On numerous occaisions I hear the phrase "hey sexy lips"or "beautiful lips" and sometimes "those are some...." well you can imagine. Girls my secret is to always moisturize even when you are sleeping or I should say especially when you are sleeping. Please do not use chapstick! At least stay away from it unless you have nothing else. It is waxy and does not let your lips breath. If used in the day, it tends to form a 'spit line' around the lips which is not very attractive. My favorite lip gloss that I use for moisturizing is actually being phased out by Victorias Secret. However another recommendation is NARS which is sold by Sephora. It may be a little pricey, but is worth every penny. My lipstick recommendations are outlined in an earlier post below. For sleeping use good old vaseline and keep those lips succulent.

Negative or Positive?

You know there are some people who MUST say nasty things to you just to make themselves feel better? With friends like that you can do two things, you can choose to let the negative comments keep you down or you can choose to make the negative comments remind you that you are so awesome that you make someone so bitter. Guess what, choose the latter! If someone is constantly giving you negative remarks, that is someone you need to keep away from. Always remember that you must be something really great to make that negative person so insecure.

Love yourself and always remain positive!

Lets talk about the feet

Girls, get a pedicure! It summer time and the sandals are all coming out from the back of the closet. Before that happens, make sure your feet are ready. Speaking to a male friend of mine, he hates it when a woman looks unkept but mostly the feet must be prepared for the summer time, size healthy or not!

Some tips for soft feet. Use a small bit of vaseline or lotion and massage your feet. Put some socks on and go to sleep. Once you wake, your feet will be soft and beautiful in the morning.

Whats the difference between size 16 and size 6?

Besides 10 size difference, does your mental state of mind change according to your dress size? After speaking to a friend of mine, going from size 16 to size 6 meant nothing to her. Her mental state of mind still told her that she was a size 16. She was literally blind to the changes people were seeing. With that said, all you size healthy girls, if you were planning on losing weight to make yourself feel better, then guess what? You will not feel any better until you learn to love yourself at any size.

Take time out one day to look at yourself in the mirror, examine who you really are and make an assessment. Point out what you love and what you hate most about yourself. If the bad outweighs the good, then you may have a problem. But if the good outweighs the bad, then you can handle a drastic change without being too hard on yourself.

Do me a favor, LOVE YOURSELF, nobody is going to love you as much as you will love yourself.

So where are the boys....

So what do men want? It is the age old question that plagues us all, even men sometimes do not know what they want. Where are the men that appreciate a strong intelligent 'size healthy' woman. Does everyone have to be a size 6 to be appreciated by men? Its time that we stand up and believe in ourselves and insist that we do not have to change for anyone. If we are not appreciated the way we are, then that person did not deserve us in the first place. Leave a comment and let me know, where are the boys that appreciates us all big and small!
