Every once in a while I am asked how do I feel so comfortable with my body and how do I succeed in charming everyone if I am not a 90/60/90 model.
Without the inspirational bla bla (in which I do believe mind you and which I do apply in my own life) here`s a succinct answer:
Your body makes you sexy, your face makes you pretty but your personality makes you beautiful!
.
I feel perfect in my own body because ever since I was little I learned that charm and personality comes from ideas, the beauty of the mind, attitude, behavior, culture, vocabulary, knowing what to say and when to talk, mystery and the lack of any kind of fear (I am sure we are all familiar with social fear `What does lady X think about me?`)
This way of thinking saved me when, during my high-school years, I could have developed frustrations regarding my breasts, my nose, my skinny body – yep, I was so bleakly skinny, a skinny girl with big breasts. But I didn`t because I had already learned the lesson of charm. So I focused on building a beautiful personality and soon after I realized that what could have been my physical flaws and frustrations became my strength.

But feeling great just the way you are is also strongly related with feeling good in your body and learning to love your body. Yes, exactly like we read in the self-confidence books that for a long time I cynically considered them to be filled with marketing crap. For example, the only moments when I feel uncomfortable in my own skin is when something is making me feel uncomfortable. Take for example the irritated skin on my armpits after shaving. It makes me feel rash and mad with no reason. But like I told you before, there`s always a secret agent around and it`s called Dove deodorant.
.
We spoke about feeling comfortable in our bodies the last time we discussed about Dove and I shared with you my understanding that Dove deodorants contain ¼ moisturizing cream which helps your underarm skin recover after giving you efficient antiperspirant protection and beautiful results.
Feeling comfortable in your body makes you really feel free. Even if you don`t have a Fibonacci numbers perfect face.

costumul de baie e absolut adorabil! iar tu arati superb, sa fii sigura de asta! 🙂
increderea in sine e foarte importanta si la fel de adevarat e faptul ca o personalitate puternica ar trebui sa treaca dincolo de un corp care nu e perfect. din pacate, societatea in care traim ne-a cultivat sa fim superficiali. sper sa scapam de asta cat mai repede si sa apreciem oamenii pentru ceea ce sunt, nu pentru cum arata
the swimsuit is absolutely adorable! I love the seaside in late summer, early autumn. it’s really beautiful
I have the same swimsuit! :))
confidence, that’s what we all should teach our children!
increderea in sine e foarte importanta. si e si mai important sa nu lasam lucrurile marunte sa ne strice buna dispozitie. fiecare zi trebuie privita pozitiv!
sometimes a self confidence book is just what you need to get that push and move on!
la urmatorul shop my wardrobe aceasta palarie va fi a mea! si chiar daca ninge, o sa plec cu ea pe cap :))
cool little person in a cool swinsuit! love it!
you look amazing! So chic and feminine!
costumul de baie e wow! stiu foarte putine fete care ar putea sa poarte asa ceva.
kissezzzzzz!
polka dots say everything about your personality 🙂 i’m sure you are a great and funny little lady, not just a fashionable one
Diva Diva Divaaaa

costumul intreg iti da o alura de micuta frantuzoaica. tres belle!
I loved this post! it was so inspiring! thank you
the second photo is just amazing! like a 50’s poster!
ma bucur sa vad ca exista locuri frumoase pe litoralul romanesc. le voi incerca si eu
a skinny girl with big breasts is most of the times every man’s dream 🙂 but the big brests are not always on the woman’s wishlist. i know that as good as you do. D cup to D cup- i fell you, sister! :))
comfortul e ceva ce obtinem cu greu,e adevarat. trebuie sa ne luptam cu noi in fiecare zi ca sa ajungem la armonie perfecta
ochelarii Prada sunt preferatii mei. love them!
you are so cool and inspiring
this post is very close to my heart. i actually needed it today 🙂
ador costumele de baie intregi! mi se par foarte feminine
