I found this after flipping through this week's Guardian magazine and finding pictures of a model in tops with huge shoulders and tight-fitting skirts. The clothes hung on her frame and I thought, "She is just too skinny." I can't remember the last time I thought that...perhaps never. Usually it's "I'll never look like that and I wish I did." Realizing that the way I think about my and other's bodies is changing gives me hope that someday I can just accept my body as it is. And then maybe I'll be able to do that for others, without needing to label them as "too skinny" or anything else...we can all just revel in our bodies as they are. Exquisite photos.

Love your blog. I'm not full-figured per se (petite with muscular thighs), yet I take comfort in seeing that beauty transcends size and shape.<br /><br />Boo @ the magazine for switching models. Le sigh. This model is GORGEOUS. Love your blog. I'm not full-figured per se (petite with muscular thighs), yet I take comfort in seeing that beauty transcends size and shape.
