So...a fashion freak I am, spending crazy amount of money on clothes, shoes and make-up. Going on girly treats with the girlfriends, admitting bad habits, barely pros but mainly cons about what we like about our bodies is just half of what I do on a weekly if not daily basis. I decided to check out the upcoming trends for S/S 12, to then find a whole load of models who barely look like they've eaten! Size 0 or whatever you want to call it is outrageously wrong. With a touch, these models will go flying to thinland! Is this what women should be? Or are expected to be? Why is it size 10, 12 or even 16 is just not accepted anymore. The influence and expectation that the media creates is a complete different platform for what is seen to be normal. This is NOT normal...if anything sad!

Thin So Not In

For the Love of Beauty
“Imperfection is beauty, madness is genius and it’s better to be absolutely ridiculous than absolutely boring.” ― Marilyn Monroe, Marilyn: Her Life in Her Own Words
The love for Marilyn Monroe shall never fade. Her beauty captures our eyes, the infamous chic that SHE carried so stunningly and immaculately is yet unmeasurable. She was and still is the international sex symbol, fascinating us with her sensuous and glamorous good looks. Likes of Madonna have tried to emulate her style and quite recently Michelle Williams dazzled in the role of Monroe in the recent movie ‘My Week With Marilyn’.
