I’ve always had a bad relationship with jeans while many wore them as a staple. It wasn’t until recently where I started to feel more comfortable, but even then, I often still felt insecure because of my thighs and stomach. I hated the rolls that popped out, especially when I was sitting and my solution was to wear a loose top that flowed just below my belly in order to hide it. When I went shopping, I could never find the right size and hated the fitting room. Since I’m short, pants were even longer for the sizes I would try on. I couldn’t just be okay with my body and would get frustrated at clothes not fitting the way I wanted them to.
I still don’t wear jeans as much as others, but I’m thankful to be farther along in my journey of acceptance and self love in whatever I wear. I wanted to share this story because I didn’t realized how impactful jeans were to my body image. I am releasing myself from the lies I carried for so long, because damn...I DO look good and feel confident in a pair of jeans! 💅🏼 #whatchawears
