Its about time size Zero was banned

As part of their ‘Real Beauty’ campaign for the Dove brand, Unilever has replaced size zero models with closer-to-reality, larger sized models. They’re using the Body Mass Index (BMI) as and indicator of ‘healthy’ body weight guidelines and sticking to this when choosing models for their Dove brand.

CLAPPING for this decision. The picture of the emaciated looking model that went with this story was shocking to see. There is no beauty there only skeletal bones showing in her outfit.

Bravo Unilever!

Ta Da, an outfit is born, lol

Well I didn't follow the advice from the associate helping me at Dress Barn as she wanted me to purchase the most expensive and glitzy outfit there and that is just not what I wanted. Last year I was so overdressed thinking of course that for a holiday party all people attending would be dressed for the holidays. WRONG. Most were in jeans and some had on a holiday top. Well jeans are not my bag, so I am wearing black slacks with a little beading around the bottom, a black cami with lace around the neckline and a cute somewhat glitzy black jacket that is more casual in style. I will have to either wear some red earings or necklace or barrett to finish up the holiday look.

Now my hair on Friday, that is a different story. I may go to a bit darker color and take some length off. I want a haircut that is easy to work with and suits my face, lol. Don't we all? Well we will see if I come out happy or mad, lmao here. I would love a gentle perm with soft curls but they never fail to make me look like Shirley Temple since I have natural curl to my hair and I usually end up cutting most of my hair off!

Hubby got wrapping done for me while I was out and now I have to get his done. I am so bad at wrapping, rolling my eyes here Misc. If my gf does the wrapping it looks like it came from SAKS. She is very talented in the crafty realm.

Peace to your Hearts,
