A Size 8 Model is Plus Size


Hello Lovelies, above is a bit of a sneak peek to a project I'm working on :). Lately I've done a few model gigs and I figured why not I really go into it seriously part time. Something to help pay college and learn how to take critism. I've signed on with a local agency and honestly I have a very long way to go before I can become anything. But I love it and it's such a cool experience so far. 

One thing that has been firmly placed as an obstacle however just happens to be my size. I have a gut, big boobs, and wide hips which all contribute to me being in between a Size 8 and Size 10. What I didn't know was it made me a plus size model.

At first I thought wow that's crazy because I mostly fit into mediums and even smalls but I didn't throw any contest to it. It's whatever. What really blew me over was that even in casting calls I often got rejected for being "too small". If I was to go to a straight size casting, I would be told I'm too big. Seriously?? (>__<)


There is no fair playing field in modeling, your either a size 4 or a 14. No one wants to see an Average Annie. 

Okay, cool, cool... maybe I should look at exotic modeling and club promotions. Like Crystal Renay, you know....


You got to have a big boobs, an even bigger butt, and an even flatter stomach. I no longer have a flat stomach, I have a bit of pudge and my ass is not that round. Honestly no type of workout could make me look like that^^. It all only comes down to either working out until I'm a size 6 or getting plastic surgery. Both things I'm not too ecstatic about and even question the possibility. I probably can't even get down to a size 6 because my hips are wide and bony.

Even Alternative Modeling is a tough one. I don't have enough tattoos or piercing for that -___-. Yea maybe I could dress a certain way for certain shoots but any model could do Alternative if it doesn't involve tattoos and piercing.

For now, I'm just keep hitting thy gym whenever there is space on my heavy schedule (I mean 2 jobs, college, and modeling- no biggie right). 


But you know what's really crazy?

A campaign like this. One the right is a size 4 model and on the left is a size 8. 

No, fashion is not created equal and it shouldn't be played off as if it is. There is no such thing as one size fits all. Instead of putting a regular size 8 they should  of a size 14 on the cover for some realism.




 I honestly don't vibe to this shoot and I wish they had done it properly.


Well that's all I had to say lovelies.

Where the line is drawn with make-up and cosmetic surgery

So this topic has been debated recently so I want to my put my two sense in . If you wear make-up you have no right to say that people who get plastic surgery is wrong. I personally don't have any cosmetic surgery but I understand people do it and I don't judge them.
So you get up in the morning and you think to yourself, ooo I look ugly let me fix that quick. Put on whatever you put on, foundation, concealer, eyeliner, etc. Did you not just change how god or whomever you (or don't)  believe in created you?   Why do you do it?  Because you like looking good.  Therefore there is no line drawn

Now for all you people who say real  beauty comes from within..... A COMPLETE LOAD of CRAP. Beauty is when you look in the mirror and you are happy with what you see. If you think your ugly than change and make yourself happy.  Just don't go to far.

For Michael Jackson (R.I.P) case in example of taking it too far:
 Here is before anything was done to himself.
 This he worked on himself and he looks hot and he should of stop right here.
 Then he took  it to far (bless his sole) but he really should of stop .

Nice example of doing plastic surgery and it working right.
She was pretty before, I admit that. But now she's still pretty and she is happy with herself.   That what makes beauty. Beauty is happyness and living a happy life.
