Any woman with curves face many obstacles when trying to find the right attire to fit perfectly. It can definitely become frustrating and I am not immune to having them either. What we need to do after the meltdown is how we recover from it.When we become frustrated, upset, emotional or even angry its time to then evaluate the situation.
First we need to understand if the store carries clothes to fit our body types. Not all body types are created equal. Knowing your body type can help you pick out appropriate and flattering items. Some stores clothes are not American cut and you may need to adjust the size you select, i.e. go up a size. If that doesn't help then the store is not for you. Of course, we would love to shop where slimmer girls do but some times it's just not meant to be.
Second, not all looks are flattering on your body. There are amazing styles out there but we cant wear all of them, even if we are in love with it. Its nothing worse than seeing someone squeezing into something or seeing them with an outfit that makes them look a mess. We need to wear something we love but also we have to understand what we look good in.
Lastly, what do you wear that makes you fell good about yourself and confident? How we feel in what we wear is what determines our moods and attitudes. Learning how to dress appropriately can help build your confidence and self-esteem. So with that being said, learn what you should wear before buying clothes. It could avoid meltdowns in the dressing room and help you build you confidence.
Peace & Love

ReplyDeleteThis doesn't sound very body positive or body embracing to me. Flattering according to whom? Isn't flattering just another word for hiding? Covering? Disguising? I'm a firm believer in anyone wearing what they want. Its not your job as a person to be pleasing to my eyes. If you feel good, you look good. :-)
Flattering has nothing to do with hiding or disguising parts of the body. Clothes are made to fit certain body shapes not sizes. There may be a dress that is made for a pear shaped figure and will not look flattering on a apple shaped figure. I'm not saying you cant wear what you want but even smaller women clothes do not look flattering on all of their body shapes.
