Hello everyone! You know what time it is. It’s Self Love Monday! You all I am trying to break myself out of my comfort zone with my fashion. Normally when I go to the store I go to the section that is most comfortable for me. The jeans and t-shirt section.
I then buy something like 2 sizes too big. It is not flattering to my body at all. Nowhere similar to how cool some people look in those beautiful t shirts for tall skinny guys and girls. Nonetheless, I am trying to embrace my body more now. I think embracing who you are now is so important. It has really helped me in my journey to get healthier.
This weekend I had my husband all to myself. We just walked around a bit and we found ourselves in a clothing store. I headed over to the clothing section determined to get something that I normally get. Which is a regular plain t-shirt. So I headed over to find something that was cute.
I didn’t have anything in particular in mind. I just knew I wanted to be different. I was not going to find something cute and then talk myself out of buying it. So I was going through the racks when I came across this shirt and it was way different than what I usually wear. It was cute and had the word love all over it. It was definitely different than what I normally wear.
I felt a bit awkward at first. But I decided to just own it. So I bought the shirt. The next day I put on the shirt and decided to do a little photo shoot. I felt just great! It was just nice to wear something different and fun. I got some pants too but they turned out to be too small so I gave them to my daughter and she loves them. I plan on getting some more pants soon though.
Anyway my point is that I pushed myself out of my comfort zone and instead of thinking of all the reasons why I shouldn’t buy the shirt I just went ahead and bought it. It was a decision that I didn’t regret. But hey even if I regretted it, it’s not like I can’t buy me another cute shirt. I am just happy I did it.
