To anyone who has ever been afraid to do a boudoir photoshoot or any kind of photoshoot because they’re insecure about their body, I promise you - you will feel much better about yourself if you just do it! Now that I’ve shared the pictures with my husband, I can share the more PG ones here with you haha. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ ✨ You CAN do a sexy photoshoot if: ✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You have a belly You have cellulite You have rolls You have a big booty You have a little booty You have small thighs You have thick thighs You have big boobs You have small boobs You have stretch marks You have none of these things or ALL of these things! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ You are beautiful no matter what and are sexy and worthy of doing a boudoir photoshoot. Do it for yourself! Who says you have to do it for someone else?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Happy Valentine’s Day, y’all. photos by @taylormade_photolv ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀#selflovery #allbodiesaregoodbodies #honormycurves #naturalcurves #curvyconfidence #embraceyourself #loveyourbody #embracethesquish #embraceyourcurves #bodypositive #bodypositivity #bodypositivitymovement #bopo #bodyposi #allbodiesarebeautiful #strongher #confidenceiskey #effyourbeautystandards #effyourbodystandards #valentinesday2019 #beyourownvalentine2019
✨ I want not your opinions. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Is what my shirt says. Now that I have your attention, let’s talk hips. As you can tell, I have pretty big ones. And I always have. I hated my hips and still have moments where I wish they were smaller. Do you know how hard it is to find things that fit when your ass and hips are 15 inches bigger than your waist?! ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I digress. I am so grateful for this #beyourownvalentine2019 challenge right now because normally after being sick for a few days and not being able to workout, I would have torn my body apart. I would have forced myself to workout no matter how badly I felt. Because I ‘had’ to. Even though my body was screaming at me to rest. Because I had to shrink my hips (and the rest of my body). ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ But, because of this challenge, this time when I caught glimpse of my sick ass self in the mirror with my pizza shirt and Star Wars boxers - I didn’t hate what I saw. I don’t look any different after not working out for a few days. I’m actually getting better quicker than I usually do. Because I have been listening to my body and not kicking it when it’s down and needs to rest. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ What is your favorite part of this challenge? Can you believe we are already halfway done?! I’m kind of sad about it tbh. How have your thoughts changed since starting? Have you have any epiphanies like I did? I would love to hear your thoughts ☺️⬇️✨ ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #effyourbeautystandards #honormycurves #celebratemysize #hipdips #demhipstho #curvy #strongher #bopowarrior #naturalcurves #becauseican #keepshining #nobodyshame #curvyblogger #curvyconfidence #embraceyourcurves #girlswithtattoos #loveyourself #selflove #selflovewarrior #selflovejourney
Day Four of #beyourownvalentine2019 - Letter. Mr. Big the Bear and I are here to tell you that your challenge is to not just write any letter - but a love letter. To yourself. It can be to yourself as a whole, it can be to a specific body part that you don’t particularly care for but want to start trying to love, it can be to a body part that you already love and want to love even more. Whatever a love letter to yourself means, write it. Here’s mine. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Dear Natasha’s Tummy, ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ I know we have had a love/hate relationship pretty much our entire lives, but let’s try and make it a love/love relationship. I love that you’re soft and squishy, enough so that you are my husband’s favorite pillow. You may be riddled in scars and stretch marks, but that’s what makes you you. No one else has marks identical to yours. I love that your belly button is identical to my dad’s, so deep you can stick like half a finger in there. We are a carbon copy of our father for sure. I know sometimes I say I hate you. That I hate how you have loose skin and you won’t go away no matter what I do. But that skin is a symbol of what we have accomplished together, and I’m working on loving it. My favorite thing is how strong you are - although it might not look like it, the core strength and abdominal muscles underneath that layer of goodness is strong af and helps us so headstands all day every day. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ So thank you. Thank you for being there even though I sometimes say I wish you were gone. Maybe one day you will be, or at least a little smaller, but know that I love you (or at least try to) at any size. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Love, Natasha ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ #loveletter #lovelettertome #tummylove #selflovejourney #selflovetips #selflovefirst #selflovery #selflovechallenge #bodylove #loveyourselffirst #loveyourself #loveyourtummy #embracethesquish #honormycurves #loveyourbody #bodypositive #bodypositivemovement #bodypositivity (at Cafe’ Lola) https://www.instagram.com/p/Btgm4efFMr1/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1vc5tdl48k2mk

Last weekend I surprised my bestie by going on a trip I “wasn’t going to go on”. Me and my other bestie drove to meet her and I surprised her In a gas station bathroom, where I was casually washing my hands. The look on her face was the best! #effyourbeautystandards #honormycurves #fatfashion #psblogger #psfashion #celebratemysize #fashion #psootd #ootd #plussize #plussizefashion #fatshion #whatfatgirlsactuallywear #bopo #allsmiles #fatandhappy #actuallyplussize #fatshionblogger #fatandfree #bestfriend #bestfriendadventures #bff https://www.instagram.com/p/BnbYjdtBjyL/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=17j0yvcl8nao
