Cut Out Details

Sharing my last outfit post from Turks and Caicos today! (The others are here and here). This floral one-piece is so fun and I love the cut out details. If I’m being honest though…I didn’t totally love how it looked. I’m really proud of how far I’ve come when it comes to body image and self confidence. I’ve learned how to dress to flatter my body, not hide it, and I’m not afraid to show off my favorite features. I’m proud to be a curvy women, and I wouldn’t have it any other way. But, I think I’ve gotten a little too comfortable. Because I finally feel like I love myself the way I am, I haven’t given much thought to whether I’m doing everything I can to be the best version of myself…until recently.

The truth is that while I generally cook healthy meals, I’ve never been super conscious about what I’m putting into my body otherwise. When it comes to workouts, I’ve made the gym a regular part of my routine, but I never really change it up. I haven’t been pushing myself, and that is something that’s going to change this year. It already has. I’m working on healthier habits when it comes to food (and drink), and really prioritizing balance. I’m exploring new exercise options too. My goal is mostly to be more mindful. If I lose a little weight, I definitely won’t mind, but that’s not the top priority. I will always be pear-shaped, and I will always promote self-love and body positivity, no matter your shape or size. I’ve just decided that it’s time to be the best version of me, stronger and healthier. Things won’t really change around here, but I wanted to be upfront about it. Thanks as always for following my journey!
