"Oh my gosh. You are too precious." "I like your skirt." "You're beautiful." Comments like these can turn a bad day into a good one. So why is it so hard for women to compliment one another? Instead we tend to compare, dis or remain silent. I used to struggle with this a lot. I would see someone really cute and think, "why can't I look like that?" or "she probably works out all the time and eats only egg whites." It was awful. After taking a body image class at my church, I began praying and thanking God for each girl's uniqueness or beauty. It totally changed my overall outlook of other women and of self.

Since I'm sharing all of this personal stuff, I thought I'd share some of my style crushes.
Time of the Aquarius. Beautiful! She's got it all... a lovely family, a killer house, mad sewing skillz and the cutest haircut around.
Rockstar Diaries. She's 24 - really? 24? Come on, this gal is a mere babe and has style out the wazoo. She rocks a straw hat like no one else, has adorable to-die-for bangs and her wardrobe is effortlessly stunning.
Blushing Ambition. This gal's a baby too, but dang she's got style. She's cute, quirky and also has great bangs. She also reminds me of my girlfriend Candace in NY that I love and miss terribly.
Bleubird Vintage. This Mama rocks being pregnant like no one else! Effortless style and amazing beauty. Oh, and I love the "photo shoot" with the Papa-to-be. Hilarious.
So lovely readers, do you mind sharing your blog style crushes? xo
Wow, we just returned from a holiday and what I found...thank´s.

ReplyDeleteoh...And a few years ago I made a rule for myself - If you think something nice, say it out loud! I get a few weird looks, but mostly people are happy to get a compliment. :)
