You guys know I'm all about body positivity. However, I only found out about Body Positivity Week after it had finished, which wasn't great. Never one to miss out on a technicality, I've decided to join in anyway, albeit a little late.
1. "You are amazing just the way you are"
The concept here was to post a photo of yourself exactly as you are. So, as I type this, I have make up smeared all over my face and big puffy eyes due to allergies. My hair is also super fluffy because I washed it last night! I have a couple of spots on my chin too. Aren't I a delight right now?
2. Post your favourite picture of yourself
I have a few photos of me that I love but I think this is my favourite. I also have a collection of great photos of me here, if you're interested in checking out some more.
3. Take a photo of the part of your body you're least confident with
My whole mouth/lip/chin area has always been an area of insecurity for me. I was blessed with my dad's testosterone levels so, even as a kid in primary school, I had some hairs there. Great! I also had insanely wonky teeth until my braces fixed that and, although they're straight now, they're pretty discoloured. I also have no definition to my upper lip. It just kind of fades into my face. I'm really selling myself here, aren't I?
4. Take a picture in public
This is in an easy one, since I do this all the time! This is my favourite one because a) It has Leona in it and B) because some girls walked past and made a snarky comment as we posed for it. Did we care? Nope!
5. Casual Fridays!
Onesies! I love onesies more than life itself!
6. Take a picture in your favourite outfit
I'm still ridiculously in love with my Meadham Kirchhoff x Topshop dress. I think it makes my figure look amazing. Yeah, I said it!
7. Take a picture when you just wake up
Morning! This is what Rich sees every day when he wakes up. Lucky man, right?
I really like this (and I really like diet pepsi too, haha)...I think so many blog posts show this weird side of people that makes them look like they live in a weird sepia tinted world and I think 'err ok what do you actually look like though?!' Not that I don't love a filter, but it's nice for some photos to be real now and again :) xxx

Diet Pepsi is the best haha! I totally agree- I like to keep it real every now and then! Not everything is perfect, after all!
DeleteYou look so great without make-up!
ReplyDeleteI'm currently working on my confidence as a new years resolution.
I agree that's a lovely photo you've chose as you're favourite!
