yourself need to work on. No one and nothing can make you confident but you yourself, but sometimes you need little help in your confidence journey.

Body suit:

Body suit is just so great for summer it is comfortable and looks good on you, it can really compliment your body. The thing that I love the most about body suit is that you can style it in so many ways. You can make it elegant, edgy or even casual. For example you can wear body suit with a skater skirt, some great heels and nice hand bag and you have perfect date night look for summer. If you want to go more casual add shorts to body suit and then add some sneakers and backpack. No matter what you wear body suits really makes your body flattering and that is why body suits are great summer clothes to boost your confidence.

Satin Mid Skirt:

Satin is great material anyways and it makes anyone look very elegant and stylish. I feel that mid length is great length you don’t show too much where you feel uncomfortable incase you are insecure about your body, but yet you show enough so it is flattering. This skirt you can style is so many ways I would style this skirt in casual way since my style is more causal. I would wear some graphic tee with this skirt, sneakers, crossbody bag  and black hat to finish up the look with some accessories. Having some badass outfits with this skirt can really boost your confidence.

Paperbag Shorts:

Paperbag shorts are great summer clothes to boost your confidence. It is very minimalistic but yet still a statement piece. This shorts is great because it doesn’t show too much and most importantly is it high waist which always looks good. With this shorts you can walk around without worrying if you are showing too much. Since this piece is very simple and minimalistic I would style it in simple way. For example with a white tee, some cute sandals and crossbody bag.

Matching Sets are so great and so easy so style. It doesn’t matter if it is shorts, skirts or pants everything looks so amazing and it really highlights your body which can also boost your confidence. With matching sets you don’t need to think too much just add some simple sandals and crossbody bag, just choose in a different color so it isn’t too much.

Ruffle tank tops:

Ruffles have become popular in last view years and can’t really complain because they look amazing. First ruffle tank tops are so cute and second the ruffles make your body so flattering which is great for you.

Linen joggers are perfect summer clothes to boost your confidence. Not only are they very comfortable and can be styled with anything, but they are flattering on anyone.

You can look super trendy by just wearing maxi dress but it can also be casual as well. I would wear maxi dress with some beautiful sandals, clutch and sunglasses or you can even add a hat whatever you feel like doing.

Mini skirt:

I don’t care what society tells us I know that mini skirt looks good on anyone. Mini skirt is the best way to highlight your beautiful legs and feel like bad bitch that you are.

Oversized Shirt:

Outfits with simple white shirt can’t get more effortless. Wearing oversized shirt will give you such a bad bitch vibes without having to put too much effort in it. Oversized shirt makes your body but especially your beautiful legs flattering, oversized shirt simply can’t make you look bad. It will boost your confidence the moment you put it on.

5 Ways Influencers are damaging your body image

We are all aware that social media

is not the healthiest place and I feel it get worse and worse every year. I mean don’t get me wrong there also some amazing things about social media it can educate you and it can help with so many issues we as society are facing like for example racism I feel there would be way more racist people if there was no social media.

But social media also have quite a

dark side, a side that can get really toxic. And one of the main reasons we have toxic side of social media is because of influencers. These influencers that make you question your worth and make you feel your body is not good enough because they show you their perfectly photoshopped photos and make you feel it is real.

I could say so much about those

influencers and how wrong it is what they are doing, but let’s just stick to one topic at the time. You might think it might help you watching these influencers, but you are so wrong it is damaging you and your body image. I feel it can damage anyone’s body image, even if you are 100% happy with your body.

Of course when you see

perfect body on someone you wish to have it, but also feel shitty for not having it! But trust me if it looks perfect, I am sure 99.9% is fake. And also isn’t it more beautiful to have imperfections ? Well anyways let’s talk about it how they are damaging you

Only showing the highlights:

Influencers are known to show only highlights. They only post the perfect photo with perfect angle and the perfect setup, but that is not a real life. Our bodies won’t always look good in fact most times it doesn’t, when we sit it does look we have more than we have, when we are standing in the wrong angle it won’t look good either. And we also shouldn’t worry how we position ourselves because these influencers do it, we should be able to talk to our friends on the street without worrying how our body looks like. But when they just show the highlights it makes us feel insecure and makes us question our worth. We start to think if our body is really good enough.

And no one should feel this way,

everyone should feel that they are good enough because they are. Instead of focusing the best way you can look, focus on being the most real and how to make your followers feel good. But I can tell you one thing the reason influencers have need to only show highlights means they question their worth and therefor have to be perfect otherwise they feel insecure, so it is nothing against you and there is nothing wrong with you, it is them that have problem!

Comparison:

As I said before when we see these perfect bodies of course we want it too. So we end up comparing ourselves to these perfect bodies and it is not far fight since our bodies are not photoshopped or might not look the best at that moment. We end up wishing we had these bodies and that can put you in very dark place. We see our flaws but instead of embracing them we hate them because of what we see on social media. An influencer should make you feel good about your flaws not bad about it. It is stupid to compare yourself with everyone it makes no sense because we are all different, this influencer will never be you and you will never be that influencer. Own your power love who you are, don’t wish to be someone else!

Unrealistic expectations:

When you start comparing yourself and seeing your body next to these perfect bodies, of course you will try to achieve the perfect body. But see doesn’t matter how hard you work on it, you will never have the body that you see on social media. Because these perfect bodies that you see on social media ARE NOT REAL, they are photoshopped and honestly they don’t even think about how realistic this is they just do whatever looks good.

Our bodies can’t achieve what

photoshop can, it is impossible our bodies are built differently and it is not possible to achieve it. But that doesn’t mean that your body is not beautiful, because it is. This can leave us very frustrated and we can end up hating our bodies! This can also in general give you false image of ideal body. Because of these influencers you will end up thinking that this is the ideal body type, when in reality all bodies are ideal body types. There is no better or worse body type, it is your body so embrace it!

Eating disorder:

Showing the perfect can make someone feel they have to lose weight to have these perfect bodies. It can make people feel shitty about their own bodies. These people might stop eating because they think if they don’t even they could achieve the perfect body which is so false. Food is not your enemy, food is making sure your body keeps going.

Because of these influencers

so many can develop eating disorder even though they were perfectly health. It really pushes people because they think this is real and want it so badly. When you show your perfect body make sure to show the process how it got so perfect, this way you can prevent so many eating disorders!

Insecurities:

When you see all these perfect bodies of course you feel start to not feel so good in your own skin. When you see all these perfect bodies and of course you don’t have it, you will start to have insecurities. You will feel that you are not good enough and that can’t be good for anyone. Being insecure about yourself can have effects in many aspects of your life. For example you tend to get jealous at other people, and that can make you feel worse. People who are jealous can become the worse version of themselves and can drive people away. There are many disadvantages of having insecurities, but most importantly you don’t feel good and you can’t grow to the best version of yourself if you have insecurities. But it is not you, it is them!

As you can see influencers really

can damage you. They make you have different image of ideal body, the very wrong and false image of ideal body. Influencers make you feel shitty about yourself and make you question your worth. And of course I can’t forget they make you have unrealistic expectations and we are still looking up to them?! They are the wrong people. I true influencer would put his or hers followers first and make them feel good and show them the real them not some fake version. Maybe you do it because you are insecure, but you are damaging your followers so much and I feel it is so selfish.

Little tip:

If watch influencer and you feel shitty after that, unfollow them that means they are the wrong person to follow. We have to show them if they don’t take this seriously they will lose us, we don’t want fake stuff anymore. And another good advice just know if it is too good it is probably fake and see that you have more courage to show the real you and they don’t so this make you more beautiful!

Hopefully this can open eyes to many of you, and you start to rethink how you need to treat your followers and also to the followers you can open your eyes and see how fake they are!

Sassy comebacks to sexist compliments

Sassy comebacks to sexist compliments

As a woman in our society

you used to sexist compliments. You know which compliments I mean, the sexually objectified compliments that are not needed. These compliments are more harmful than anything else. It can make a woman question her worth, and have big issues around herself and her body. No one should feel shitty about themselves, but you usually do when you hear sexist compliments.

The woman feels that

her worth is in her body. So because of her body she is enough otherwise she wouldn’t be. It can make anyone feel insecure when others only see their body. But it is no common in our society for men to feel they need to give us sexist compliments because men have been taught by society that they own women and that only use women have in their body. Our society talks about women like women are objects so men can meet their needs or make children. So of course men will feel they are only good because of their bodies. But I will tell you now and forever it is a bullshit. You are much more than just your body. You are enough even if you don’t have babies.

When you get this sexist compliments just not, you are much more. These compliments don’t define you and shouldn’t let them ruin your image about yourself. But now the big question is what are the best comeback for these sexist compliments

1: Women being angry

Him:You’re cute when you’re angry

Her: I don’t think it’s a great idea to minimise my emotions right after you’ve pissed me off.

There is a reason someone is angry. Yes it might be silly for you, but you should never make someone feel that their emotions are not valid. It can make anyone feel they shouldn’t show their emotions, which will just lead to pressing their emotions and that is never good idea.

2: Opinion on women wearing makeup

Him: I like that you don’t wear a lot of makeup

Her: I love how you think that your opinion on what I apply on my face and how much, is a compliment or even important enough to be spoken out loud.

Seriously a woman can do whatever she wants to with her face. If you think a woman is putting makeup for you, you have no idea. We women we put makeup because we enjoy it. We put makeup on because we want to feel good for ourselves. I really don’t care what you prefer, it is my face so the only opinion that matters is mine.

3: Girls knowing a lot about sports

Him:It’s so amazing to see a girl know so much about sports.

Her: It’s amazing to see a man who still believes in the stereotype that only men can be into sports. Newsflash: Girls are humans and humans have different about interests!

Seriously so many women are into sports. Things don’t have genders. You can like football and be a woman. You can like dance and be a man. It really depends on the person, and it also doesn’t mean they are gay or lesbian. It has more to do with interests than anything else, and it really should be this way. Stop focusing on stupid stereotypes, they mean nothing.

4: Being smart as a woman

Him: You’ve got beauty and brains!

Her: Could you share the research paper that proves how these are mutually exclusive traits?

What women can’t be smart? Or what when you look good which to be honest all of us do you can’t be smart. So then I guess no one can be smart when you think like this. It is stupid especially the stereotype hat suggest that women are beauty so they have no brain. Like what? This is not true, women are very smart and have many skills. Many studies prove that women can indeed be better leaders and much more. It is our society that needs women to stay back, but seriously it is not okay. We should strive too!

5: Opinion on woman not trying too hard

Him: I love how yo don’t try too hard like other girls.

Her: I wish I could be half as awesome as the girls I admire and I wish you could get a fraction of our sensibility

What is wrong with trying too hard? To be killing at your life, at your career and at your relationship. Why is a woman who is doing the most, seen as something bad. Woman who is doing the most should be attractive, but I guess for insecure men it is just opposite. Get over it, women can be hard workers too.

6: About jokes

Him: You’re great, most girls don’t know how to take a joke.

Her: So you mean nobody else takes your sexism for humour and lets it slide? I guess that’s the sign I needed. Boy bye!

I don’t know, but if no one would laugh at my jokes I would rethink them. I would think ooh maybe I should stop with them, or ask them what is wrong with them. Be aware of what you are saying, when your jokes are hurting others, there are not jokes anymore.

Of course girls

won’t take it lightly when you are disrespectful towards them. Learn that sexism is not something good or cool. When you are being sexist you are seen as uneducated and rude. Sexism is not something to be proud of so stop doing it.

Remember it not

about putting him down, but putting him in his place. Hearing sexist compliments and just ignoring them won’t do you any good babe. It is good for you to express how you feel. Giving them these sassy comebacks, will do that for you.

If you ignore them,

you will just get angry for not saying anything. And then it will just keep going and going every time you get sexist compliments and you know that happens away too often. Do you really want to let yourself? Why would you let disrespectful men get away with it. It is not right. By saying something you are educating them, but also helping yourself not go into dark place. It really can effect you, so this is why it is important. Why are you protecting him while you are suffering. You should always come first. I know you can do it, so do it. Read this as much as possible and save it in your phone in case you forget.

Take a quiz to see how sexist you are

Reminder: Be brave and sassy!

How to live your best life in 5 simple steps

How to live your best life

I feel all of us guilty of this,

we tend to focus on unimportant things and don’t really enjoy the life. We have to remind ourselves that we have to enjoy life and the now we have won’t last forever. As humans it is natural that we stress ourselves, because of the stupidest things, but it is not doing us any good. Instead of focusing on something that probably won’t matter in a day or even in two hours, better enjoy your life. For example enjoy the moments with your friends and be 100% present. If you focus all your energy on the bad things, the bad things will keep coming and coming. If you focus on good things well more good things will come your way it is simple. So many of us tend to focus our entire lives on the wrong things, and then we end up regretting this, let’s stop this. Let’s focus on what makes us happy and what we enjoy. So here are view tips how to start enjoying your life:

How to live your best life step 1:

-Stop dwelling on the past:

I always see the past as a blessing and not something to dwell on or to feel sorry about. You need to think about everything you experienced in the past as a lesson and as part of becoming who you are today. If you only focus on the negative parts, you won’t be able to move forward. If you are only seeing your past as negative, how do you justify all the good things that came with it? I am sure if you dive deep and think more you will realise all the good things that came with it and I can assure you there are probably more good things that came with it than bad. So let’s stop playing the victims. Use the past as something to take from, something you can learn and reflect on. Talk about it and heal from it, but then move on from it in a positive way. This way you will be able to move forward and be able to enjoy your life.

How to live your best life step 2:

-Stop with Comparison:

No matter who you are as a person, at some point in your life your probably compared yourself to others. For example I used to obsessively compare myself to my twin sister, and think back it is ridiculous because we are two completely different people. It is our nature to do this, but you got to stop it. I get it, in a way we are taught to do so by our society, but you got to stop it. You are just hurting yourself. Instead of comparing yourself how about you admire something about yourself and others. How about you admire unique qualities you have and also admire unique qualities other people have. Enjoy the diversity, and know we are all amazing and there is no need for competition. Comparing yourself to others will just stop you from living your life. Judging yourself from not being the same way someone else is, will put you in a bad head space. It is impossible to be someone else, you are you for a reasons so embrace it.

How to live your best life step 3:

-Stop focusing on the wrong things:

As I mention we tend to focus on the wrong things. We stress out about something that won’t even matter for long time. When you are stressed out about something take a deep breath and ask yourself this question: will this bother me tomorrow or next week? most of times the answer will be no, so then at that moment just say to yourself well then stop stressing out. I feel most of us don’t want to stress out, but then we end up anyways doing it, but if you tell yourself to stop it, it might work. And I feel this method with knowing it won’t anyways matter tomorrow also might be helpful. We really tend to focus on the wrong things for no reason, so we really need to stop it.

How to live your best life step 4:

-Accept yourself:

Trying to be someone else and not accepting yourself is not good for anyone. You have to remember you are you and you can’t change that. Your weird and unique ways is what makes you, you and you don’t have to change that. The most beautiful thing you can do to yourself is to be yourself and 100% accept who you are. Knowing no one is perfect, but that is what makes you and everyone else beautiful will help you accept yourself. You have to stop thinking that being you is not cool, you are the way you are fro a reason so stop trying to change that. Loving who you are is going to make your life so much more beautiful.

How to live your best life step 5:

-Live in the moment:

Remember now is all we have and we will never get it back, so live in the moment and enjoy every second of it. Be present when someone is talking to you, be present with things you are doing and experiencing. Be aware of every little detail that you are experiencing, because this is what I call truly living your best life.

In the world so many things are going on, so our focus can shift quickly, but we really need to remember to be present. We need to start focusing on beautiful and happy things in our lives. I am not saying forget about your struggles and worries, but I would say work through them and move forward so you can focus on more positive things in your life. Just make the best out of your life and enjoy the beautiful moments and focus on that. Do more things that make you happy, because this is how you truly can live your life!

Reminder: Focus on positive!

How to discover your own personal style?

How to discover your own personal style?

The meaning

behind fashion is expressing yourself through your clothes, but I feel this meaning got lost in translation. Nowadays instead of focusing on how to express yourself through your clothes, we trend to focus on what is trend and how to impress others. You shouldn’t be wearing something to impress someone, or because it is something many are wearing at the moment. It is not wrong to get inspired by latest trends, but then put your own twist to it so it aligns with you.

There are many

disadvantages of wearing something that doesn’t align with you and your personality and I will be telling you all about it in upcoming article. Because we are too focused on trends, finding our personal style can first be very difficult and can cause you to cloud your decision. It is important to find what truly is your personal style, because when something aligns with you, you feel more comfortable therefore you will feel more confident wearing it. If you were wondering why you seem so insecure, maybe rethink your personal style.

If something aligns with you,

it will anyways be stylish, because being yourself will never go out of the style. Here you won’t be getting how to style latest trends, but how to style according to you and your personality. Latest trends are only trendy if they fit your personality. If you love bright colours, we support it, we support anything as long as it is true to yourself. So now where do we start? How do we find our personal style?

Finding personal style can be really easy, just in view simple steps in you have it, so let’s go:

Get to know yourself:

This one is the most important. If you don’t know who you truly are, you can’t really know what is your personal style. Dive deep into yourself ask yourself questions like:

-What do I like/enjoy doing?

-What words describe me? (Not how you like to be described, but how you really are)

-What makes me happy?

-Ask your friends and family to describe you?

-What makes me unique? (And don’t even say nothing is special about me, everyone is unique in their own way)

Getting to know yourself and knowing who you truly are will play important role in finding your own personal style. Try also to be aware what you are doing during the same, some small habits you have, how to interact with people, what makes you nerves or stressed.

Learn to love yourself:

After you got to know yourself on a deeper level, you got to work on loving yourself. In this part you got to be open and accepting. I also have to mention that in part of getting to know yourself, you can’t be convincing yourself to be someone you are not, just because you rather be that. In the long run it will don’t be good for you. You got to be open to fully knowing your true self. Learning to love yourself can be really difficult so some people, so be patience. High light some unique qualities you have, and try saying affirmations like “I love and accept myself” and learn to embrace all the imperfections about yourself. If you don’t love yourself, you will always be focusing how to dress to impress instead of dressing to express yourself.

Get inspired by others:

As I said before, getting inspired by others is all good. By getting inspired by others you will get some good ideas to try out and see what aligns with you the most. Try pieces that resonate with you the most and wear them with view outfits and see how it feels like. Great way to find out if it is you or not, is by taking pictures of outfits in which you wore the piece and ask your family and friends if they think it aligns with you. Another great way is after wearing the outfit and seeing the photos you took and writing down how this outfit makes you feel. If you for example have a piece and can’t even put together outfit with this piece, it is a sign it is not for you. Just play around and see what feels good for you. It is also important for you to feel comfortable in this piece so make sure you feel this way.

Style pieces that will high light your personality:

Your style should high light your personality not someone else’s. Now that you got to know yourself, and your personality you should be able to know what aligns with your personality. So take for example a leather jacket and make view different outfits with it and see what suits you the most, what outfits screams you. In this part it could also be useful taking pictures and then really looking it and thinking what suits you.

Write it down:

Your style can also change from time to time. Sit down and write down how you are feeling, what are your goals at the moment. All of these can influence your style. Because how someone feels can influence how they dress, because this is also how you express yourself through your emotions. It is great to have a diary where you can write weekly how you feel, so you can change up your style according to how you feel.

Fashion is

not about what you wear, but how it makes you feel. Does it describe me or someone else? In order to find your personal style you have to get to know yourself and love and accept yourself. Otherwise this won’t be your personal style, and you won’t feel good in it. People love to pretend to be someone else, because our society makes us feel we are not good enough. But don’t you get it, every time you didn’t pretend people were more drawn to you. Pretending is not a plus in any aspect of your life.

I always loved glittery

clothes, so one time I bought myself this glitter sneakers. I was so happy to wear them at work, but when I got there my back then best friend totally made fun of it, but I didn’t care because I loved how it looked. I knew I was being true to myself and no one could hurt my feelings. This is why you shouldn’t be pretending, because people won’t be able to insult you when you are being yourself and confident in who you are.

Let’s enjoy who we are and let’s enjoy even more making outfits according to ourselves, no putting masks, we are not about that fake life!

Reminder: Don’t stress out too much about shopping!
