Hey Loves,

So I'm sure you're wondering what this is all about. For the past few weeks I have sitting with myself to think of a way to make my blog & platform have more of a meaning. Don't get me wrong, I love taking outfit picks and creating fashion list for you. But I really want my blog to have a purpose. For quite sometime I felt very confused about what to change. Then one day while writing one of many pitch letters to a brand, I typed out

I want to ensure that plus size women are confident in all aspects of life.

I want you all who follow me, to be confident in all aspect of life. That means being confident in travel, in your professional life, in your love live, family, hobbies, beauty, hair...all aspects of life.

I also remember sitting at a panel discussion and one of the girls said that a lot of times we as plus size women are always told to feel confident or feel beautiful. Which is true. A lot of the rhetoric surrounding confidence, beauty, or body acceptance is about a feeling. A temporary feeling. So I've been thinking about that. I've been thinking about what it means to really be confident, really be beautiful. I may define my level of confidence very differently that some of you. You may define you confidence differently that the girl next to you.

This hashtag is about you as women fully embodying all that you are. Learning & understanding the very essence of being confident. Be sure to tag all of your favorite pics on IG with #IEmbodyMe. I want to know what makes you embody all of your confidence. Check out the #IEmbodyMe instagram

Best,
