So, last Friday, I had the opportunity to head out to the city to see a Body Positive Fashion Show that showcased Smart Glamour’s latest collection.
And I thought…body positive? This sounds awesome!
It totally was! There was so much diversity on the runway, from race to body type to height. Everyone looked amazing and I definitely saw some items I could see myself in–mostly because I was able to see myself represented on the runway. And the best part? At the end of the show, when the models did their final walk, they carried signs that read “All bodies are good bodies.” Such an affirming end to an awesome presentation!
Clothing companies? Take note. This is how you appeal to ALL of your customers.
Ok, I’m done preaching. 😀 Let’s get to the fashion:
This burgundy number was my fave look of the night. Doesn’t it scream “holiday party”?
So, remember I needed some help picking out a Lane Bryant outfit? I wore the winner to this event:
Jacket, Shirt, Jeans, all Lane Bryant. Shoes by JustFab.
And a closeup! Lipstick is MAC’s Eugenie with a little gloss on top.
So, I basically ended up blending elements from all three outfits. I loved the moto jacket, so I had to have it. I loved the jeans, so I had to have them. And I decided I didn’t want to be too dressy, so this embellished shirt was perfect (and we know how I feel about sparkle!) I did still get those awesome red shoes, though. They’ll be paired with a different outfit I have planned. Thank you all for your input!
Happy weekend, everyone!
