New Year, New Look

It was my birthday last week and my dear friend and amazing blogger (awayfromtheblue) went out to the city and we had a great night. She also inspired me become a blogger. More pics to come later.

Thank you for visiting my blog. Firstly, beauty does not have to be painful. It is not defined by someone else. You all have your own, original and unique style. Beauty does not have to be expensive or uncomfortable. As cliche as it sounds, beauty does come from within. How are you meant to feel beautiful if you are not comfortable and having a sense of internal satisfaction?

I experienced many body image issues growing up, trying to confirm to other peoples' so called standards and definitions which extremely reduced my self esteem and worth. It was only few years ago when I discovered that things like success and beauty does not require anyone's approval. It is something that is defined by you. Discard all pre-defined conventions and pre-conceived notions!

I always wanted to wear midriff tops but felt that I never had the figure. I saw these midriff tops (XL) in Valley Girl for only $4.50. The material is so warm, comfortable and flattering. The gold chain skirt was sent by Rosegal. It goes to show you don't have to be slim or sixteen to rock a midriff.
